Shipmates, I never said, thought
or dreampt that the Shamrock
would win in the coming inter-
national yacht race. AS far as I
am aware there is absolutely moth
ing Irish about her, excepting her
name. She is English from the
keel to the truck, good, old genuine
English.
It will take something more
than the Britinnia to beat the
clever Yanks who sold them wooden
shoe pegs for oats. AS to my
installing White Bear Lake for
the Spanish Main, is a canard; for
the good people Of Minnesota did
not give me sufficient time to even
get mixed on my drinks. They
knew a good article when they saw
it and they quickly but quietly
took me in.
With her Irish name, Scotch
design and English construction,
I predict a most dismal failure for
her, and am willing to bet my hash
against your Sunday beans that
she will be beaten. SINBAD.

us that we should wake up to the

we sought the prison teamster,
and furnishing him with pad and
pencil, instructed him to seek in
terviews with the different business
