On our trip from Hampton Roads
to Trinidad there was nolhintr of a j
serious nature to occur with the machinery
of any of the vessels but on
the Alabama there was a death and
funeral at sea. It was one of tiro first
burials at sea that T had ever witnessed
and it proved to be one of the
most impressive ceremonies that 1
have witnessed since 1 have been in
the service. Promptly at 4 o'clock
the burial ceremony hetran and at
that time every engine on all Ihe l(>
vessels were stopped and until the
ceremony was completed the ships
were allowed lo drift with the sea.
ft very flats-, of course, was hauled to
half mast. All the officers and every
man of the crow not 0:1 duty attended
the burial which took place from
the quarter deck. We were at Trin.idnd
for nearly a week and I really
enjoyed the stay there. The island
is the largest' of the Lesser Antilles,
ranking, in fact, iu point of size, next
lit I'orto Kieo. In Trinidad is to lie
seen the greatest curiosity in the whole
ol the West I ml ion archipelago?a
natural phenomenon such as exists
nowhere else in the world. This is
the famous asphalt lake. The basin
is entirely filled with asphalt, the surface
of which is nearly everywhere
strimy; enough to bear your weight.
The lake is broken by fissures where
I ho pitch evidently oozing up from
various centers h;is failed to unite
into one compact mass. These lismiivs
vary I'imiu a few inches to several
yards in depth and extent and
hiv usually lill.'d with water.
