AGED MARINER
CROSSING SEA
IN DORY
Com. Maude, ", Tempts Fate
in journey to England in
25-Foot Craft

VICTORIA, British Columbia, June
Commander Eustace b. Maude,
formerly an officer in the royal
navy, is seventy.seven years Of age,
but he Is still young enough to
seek a thrill. On May 2 he left
Victoria in his twenty dory,
the Half Moon, on cruise to Eng
land, with a complete set of Shake.
speare as his only companion.
Commander Maude, who stands
oyer six feet and is still fairly
nimble, has been enjoying life OH
the Pacific slope for some years.
During the past winter his sea.legs
got itchy to feel q heaving deck
beneath them, SO he sent his wife
and daughter off to England by
tho usual means Of transportation
and then proceeded to fit out his
craft. The Half Moon has two
masts and a small auxiliary engine
and is jammed full Of stores, water
and gasoline.
Commander Maude refused to
leave behind his armchair, which
he has dashed in the cockpit so
that he can sit there when the
weather is fine, smoke his pipe and
read The Merchant of Venice" or
some other Shakespearean. play.
The ancient mariner is in no
way alarmed over the long jour-
ney. He says he will take things
easy and hopes to reach England
In less than four months. He re-
fuses to skirt the coast on the way
to Panamas believing he will be
safer by running web offshorey and
then turning southwark. After pass
ing through the Panama Canal he
will head through the Gulf Of
Mexico and northeastward across
the Atlantic.
The commander was given q big
send-off when he left Victoria, but
many shook their heads at the wis
dom of the effort.
