"Old Ironsides" Afloat Again Boston, Mass., March 15.?Resurrected like tihe phenix of old, the 132year-old frigate (Constitution, throe years ago a pathetic, decaying hulk, tonight rode the sea again, her sleek b!ack hull staunch and true. M-uch of her refitting is still to be done. Many a day will pass before her towering masts raise their heads against the sky, and many another day before her gleaming sails billow in the salty breeze. But one fact stands out? "Old Ironsides" is afloat again. The ,ceremony of refloating her after three years of rebuilding was the simplest. At the head of the great concrete box that forms the dry dock stood Lieut. John A. Ix>rd, grizzled master builder of such steel giants as the superdreadnaughts New York and Arizona to whose craftsmanship the renewed Constitution is a monument. With him were Hear Admiral Philip Andrews and Capt. C. M. Simmers of the naval department of construction. The excited forms of children comprised the greater part of the crowd of 2,000 about the drydock?and properly so, for they represented young America, which had poured so many millions of its pennies into the $400,000 already spent in renewing the veteran warship.
