AN ANCIENT WHIP
With the Butt Made of Wood From
"0id Ironsides."

A lash whip which dates back Sc
years is temporarily in the possession
of Paul ID. Leavitt, and il is proposed
to place the whip in the museum at
the State House in Montpelier along
with some other antiques. The chief
feature of public interest about the
whip is that the butt is made from wood
taken from the old frigate Constitution,
or better known as "Old Ironsides," ia
nous for the part she played in the war
of 1879.
"Old Ironsides" was built in 1928
and was used extensively in the second
war with Great Britain, having me-
morable fight with five of the enemy's
vessels, beginning July II and lasting 3
days, the Yankee ship coming out of
the encounter well and escaping from
the quintet of opponents. Later "0ld
Ironsides" captured the Guerrero" one
of the five that fought her in July; and
subsequently she was engaged in sew
eral other naval encounters.
After the war of 1912 sold Ironsides"
was kept in the American navy until she
became of little value as sea fighter,
and it was proposed to dismantle her,
a proposition which met with such a
storm of protest, including Oliver Wen
dell Holmes famous poem, that the at
tempt was given up and the frigate was
made over into a school ship.
When the ship was made over, Bos-
ton man who secured some of the planks
out of the vessel fashioned the butt of
