CERTAIN He DID

Toledo, o., Sept. 2S.-Several weeks
ago a statement published was to the
effect hat Sir Thomas Upton, on his
recent trip across the water to this
country, made the statement that one
Of his captains sold him out in the
last race, for $500. This statement
was credited to B. f. Wade, for years
one of the foremost business men of
this community, who said Sir Thomas
made hat remark to him when they
were fellow passengers. Sir Thomas
promptly denied it. Mr.. Wade re-
membered that a prominent whole
sale merchant Of New York, John Nc
Cullough, of the Belfast Linen Hand
kerchief company, Limited, 81 and 2S,
White street, had been present and
overheard the statement. He was
rather nettled at Sir Thomas curt
denial of the assertion and wrote
Mccullough for confirmation of the
matter.
Following is a statment made by
Wade and appended thereto is the
letter he received from McCullough:
"On our second morning out from
Liverpool IN Friday, August 16, 1901,
about $50 a. m, John Mccullough, of
New York, and writer were seated at
the head of main stairs on board the
steamer Teutonic, bound for New
Vo,1y yyhor Civ Thnpooc a ~ n, tho
stairs. At the landing we arose and
gave the morning greeting, when he
asked us to be seated. During the
conversation we wished he might
win the coming race, as we believed
it would create ~livelier interest in
| yachting for the future; when, un-
| solicited on our part, and without any
reserve OF his part, he went on to
tell us how his captain had sold him
out two years ago for about 5000 or
$500, I am not certain whether he
said two or three hundred, but that
his crew was true as steel. We then
said to him that when he found his
captain was not doing what was right,
he should have discharged him. Lip
ton replied that he was not a sailor,
and that he could not sail the boat,
but that this time he had a designer
with him M Captain Sycamore who
were the best and truest sailors in all
England. In the general converse
ton he was quite severe with his
former captain. (Signed) B. F.
Wade"
Here is the letter he received from
Mccullough:
Belfast Linen Handkerchief com
pany, Limited, New York, Sept. 3,
1901: B. F. Wade, Toledo, Ohio
Dear Sir: Yours of August 26 receiv-
ed, and am glad to know that you and
Mrs. Wade arrived home all right.
The conversation we had with Sir
Thomas Upton is correct. l remem-
Der it distinctly, but there appeared
in one of our papers a statement
crediting you with saying that Sir
Thomas told you his crew was dis
loyal. He denied ever making such
a statement, and from your letter
you evidently did not either. Some
reporter got your statement twisted
as regards the crew, and it was evil
IDENTIFY shown to Sir Thomas, as he
came out with a prompt denial. You
have got the conversation correct.
which was to the effect that the crew
were loyal, but that the sailing mas
ter had sold him out. (Signed) John
Mccullough"
