lips made American ports within the
interval of few days early in the
winter Of 1911. Many ships. in fact,
were making American ports every
day. But these two were different.
They were of a fleet apart. The ar
rival Of these two ships was heralded
in press dispatches from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. One had dropped
anchor at Boston, the other at San
Francisco. As a matter Of fact, their
arrival was noteworthy event, an
event calling for prominent record
and elaborate comment.
The significance Of the event lay in
the fact that these two ships were

There are tOiav however 50 few OF these OLD deep
water saier in the worlds commerce that the press Of
the country devOtes columns TO the stories OF Their pas
sage their records, and their Captains voyages And
such stories carry a greater wealth Of the element OF
human interest than the most imaginative writer can
weave about any half dozen voyages OF The modern
ocean greyhound.
The square-rgged ship W F. Babcock, coal laden,
came through the Golden Gate from Newcastle at the
end Of a passage covering lob days. The scheduled
mail time between these two points IS sixteen days
The Aryan, arriving at Boston, was the only ship OF
her class flying the Stars and Stripes that had been in
that port within ten years She was also accredited
the distinction Of being the only vessel Of that type OF
American registry hailing from anywhere on the At
hntic Coast.
During the following month the clipper ship Edward
Sewal docked at New York. Her advent IN port was
honOred with dOuble-column notice in great metro
potan daily She was among the last Of the steel clipper
ships constructed by the Sewall yards at Bath before
they closed down ten years ago. OF three among the
