The model, with all masts and other spars tn place mm with rigging, blacks, boats, etc., as they should be, was a handsome picture when It was packed for shipment at Nantucket.

He happened to tell his troubles to a naval officer sta tioned at League island and soon afterward the -officer rang the eoal magnate up and satd lie thought he had a njan ? who could repair the wreck.
