which Hudson made his exploration OF
the now famous river. When 1t came
to building the craft unforeseen Diff
culties were presented. Museums and
antiquarian resorts were searched In
vain for some time for data on which
to plan the ship. Ultimately two
books were found, one "Uitloop-
boek," or sailing record, and the other
Memorial" or memorandum book,
which contained references to the ves-
sci. In the former, under date Of 1905,
there appeared an entry. "Jacht Halve
Maen, Lasts 40, Noordwaarts, Hendrix
Hudson Terug," which meant that
the yacht Half Moon, vessel Of forty
loads, sailed northward under Captain
Hendrick Hudson. This showed that
the vessel Was one Of eighty tons.
Further diligent search revealed books
and documents which enabled the COM
mittee to complete the particulars In
regard to the character of the vessel.
A unique print was also found depict
Ing the port of Amsterdam at the time
Of Hudson's sailing and ships like the
Half Moon upon it. A drawing was
made, and the construction work was
commenced in October, 1908, under the
shipbuilding master E. j. Benthem.
