Editor, gree .
Press ;. May I take
theliberty of making' a eorrection
in regard to the "write-up" under.
the. caption "Whaleoack,; Ship Re-
visits Goderich."
The ship ' in question, • "W.
Inkster,"- is not a. wha.leback. This
vessel„'originally. the "Turret Cape,”
N of the wdesign known as "Tiirrot
Ships;" built. as you correctly state
JO • the •-S,uez , Canal trade. The
reason of this 'design in ship eon-.
struetion was to have a very nar-
row beard' athwart .the• main deck,
as the Suez Canal .tolls of that
;day were figured ;&n -his adlneasure=
mcent .to some .extent. -
A fleet of. these vessels came up
• they Lakes about 1905; •namely,"Tur-
ret Cape," ,"Turret Crovyu." "Tur-
ret Chief," "Turret Court"' and
"Scottish Hero.". The latter, had
_,to- be=Aeut:An • two
ta..• be -brought'
through" -the , cal ai system Lind••
-joined together iii Buffalo,.:.
for the. upper •--lake trader: ' ,• The
others being of -canal size plied be-
tween Montreal and upper • lane;
ports when 'trade offered," 'Another
Turret .ship, the `•T.urret_E:e11," was
to have come up the lakes but
carne to grief •on ' the rocks of ,the
Strait of Belle Isle. '
The • 'only "whaloligck'• ship 'I
know of under British.. or Canadian
registeh- wax.the • °S.S. `aAtakokan,b•
:This vessel; '',originally the ."S.S.
John Trevor," .xvas built in • U.S.A.,
-14,I -n e C•of su•eh:z. esseIs:after 1
.dlream by. the Tare Alexander Mc-
Dougall • of the Pittsburg 'Steamship
Company. He 'dreamed- that such
a 'design inship construction would
greatly` improve the shipping • in-'
dustry in economical, handling'• of
cargoes ° and make for •areal good-
'seaworthy vessel.. • , The ' • • vessel:
prayed -MA tehe reverse andwere
the.most cumbersome vessels both
in port and at sea.
The, S:S: - John Trevor was
-wrecked- on the rocks .in Lake
Superior 'land : was. _later :Salvaged
and `Caine out of drydock named
the S.S. Atakokan.•. �y r. • •
One of the S.S. ,John Trevor's
early captains afterwards delivered..
a batti'e °ship•-ta the xrkish-Gor'ret$v
went for the United States Navy
Department. The vessel' *as at
anchor quite close to where the
Sultan was in residence along the
beach, The, vessel's •whistle blow-
ing ,so annoyed the Sultan Abdu1-
l;4aniid Jr that ,he sent., aiii, escort
CO have' the brazen 'AJneriban par-
aaed,.before him for admonishment.
When ,the captain appeared before
the Sultan•,:- he • not only took' • the
adiubitishi fent-;iii gori 1 spirit. nut so
'impressed- • the- Sultan 'with his.
Ya•nitee-wit° and .lhuinor that he was,
ollered»nnd ''accepted;• the rank of
,admiral in .the Turkish, Navy
rem» led
-there "in the- rind of his
adoption for many years.
having served in command of
ships at sea, and on the lakes for
many' years and before taking com-
mand,.__and_ baying+served in• •ther-twe'
vessels nailed as first and second
mate, I: feel you" will not mind • a
small correction from- 'one • of .tha't'
