In the Book of Job are words which

Great Eastern Surely
Worlds Unluckiest Ship

At Millwallana there still exists the
massive concrete bed and slipway laid
down over seventy years ago for the
building and launching of the Great
Eastern, probably the unluckiest ship
ever constructed. The first time she
put to sea an explosion below the
decks killed ten of her fremen On
her maiden voyage her captain fell
overheard and was drowned. Next she
ran on rock and ripped open her
hull. Following this, her crew seized
her for their unpaid wages, she having
sailed for New York prepared for
1000 passengers and returned with
191. When the vessel was broken up
the skeleton of workman, who had
disappeared mysteriously during her
construction, was found wedged be-
tween the outer and inner plating of
her hull.
