LAUGHED AT TIMES PASSAGE
Blue Delft Saucer, Long Sunk ID
Ocean, Benefited by Century
Immersion In Ocean.

The act of fishing smack off Eye
mouth, Berwlckshire, England, brought
to the top of the sea recently q lone
dead memory. A blue Delft saucer
deeply incrusted with barnacles, lay
among the Topping fish in the net, and
1t bore a picture Of one Of the old
British coasting and sailing vessels
with the words ECLIPSE, Ldn. and
Edinboro, Shipping Coy"
Now, the Eclipse was lost at sea
100 years ago. No one survived, NO
bodies were thrown up, no wreckage
definitely identified with the lost
schooner was ever washed against
known shores. ~
Yet, over century later, china
saucer is recovered! It's blue, accord
ing to reports, had taken on won
derfully deep shade, tinged with
green, and was very beautiful.
The London and Edinburgh Ship
ping company bought the relic for
about $50 of our money and gave that
sum to the British Red Cross. The
saucer was sent to the British
museum.
