LOG BOOK
Whether it is in the ship's log: or not the crew of tho British freighter Saint Ronald, from Antwerp, claim it to be true, and of the jolly son dogs. Let'em what's the use doubting the word
brooze !!
By it we mean the story they rolato concerning a remarkablo swarin, of locusts which covered the steamer off the African coust on the voyage hore and which the sailormen claim resulted in a con- siderable saving in the fuel bills.
Thus they spin::
BJ
When off the west coast of Afrion the lookout sighted what appeared to be land ahead. Later it assumed the aspect of a great black cloud and thou turned out to be a shower of locusts, which were soon anklo deep throughout the steamer."All lands were kept. busy shoveling them ovorboard
11012-
and tons of them were washed through the scuppers. Finally, after the swarm had passed on and the vossol was clear of the pest, what
word left were saved for fuel and it is estimated that above thirty tons. of coal went to the good.
The British steamer Strathtay also tramps in with a good story of a swarm of turtles, not locusts. The Strathtay's officers declaro that the vessel passed through a countless multitude of turtles, enough to supply the whole country with turtle soup for a month. The turtles were sighted" about thirty miles from land and 1,000 miles north of the canal zono. They lay on the surface in groups of more than 100," Many of them seemed to be asleep while others swani lazily to and
fro. It is needless to remark that turtle soup and turtle steak were familiar dishes on the Strathtay. The Call."
