extremities and the long cross stock.
The process Of storing one of these old
anchors was long and laborious one.
It was hove close up to the capstan

rope to hook on a huge tackle, by
which the anchor was then hoisted,
still perpendicular, to stout project

to be hoisted up horizontally by an
other tackle and the whole made fast.
In the modern .stockless anchor
chain is attached to it at the balancing

postoffice be /added to it's institutions.
The request was favorably received,
and he was asked to suggest a name
that would be acceptable to his neigh
