Fourth Ship to be Named Memnon.

The choice of the name Memnon for the new Blue Funnel motor cargo ship which was launched at the Caledon Yard on Trafalgar Day maintains the Blue Funnel tradition of perpetuating in the fleet names which have made a re- putation for themselves, a custom which lends so much interest to, the ships of the company, says the Journal of Commerce.

The first Memnon was built in 1861 by Messrs. Scott, of Greenock, for Mr. W. J. Lamport, the regis tered owner of Messrs. Lamport and Holt, of which Mr. Alfred Holt's brother George was the first man- ager, the two concerns being asso- clated in those days. She was an iron acrew ship of rather more than 1,200 tons, and a very useful ship for the Mediterranean and South American trades. on which she originally ran.

Transferred to Singapore. In 1872 she was re-engined and

years later was transferred to Messrs. Alfred Halt and Co., who again gave her new boilers and re- built her until her tonnage was con- siderably greater. After five years' Bervice they transferred her to the East India Ocean Steamship Com- pany, of Singapore, who hulked her In 1899.

In that year the Gulf Line steamer Gulf of Guinea was bought by the Ocean Line, the Dutch flag portion of Messrs, Alfred Holts, and re-named Memnon. She was bullt by Messrs. R. W. Hawthorn Leslie in 1888, her original owners being the Greenock Steamship Co., who were known as the Gulf Line. She was a steel screw brig of 2,488 tons. In her early days she had been used for the South American trade, both for passenger and cargo. -and-she-proved-a very useful Blue. Funneller, principally in the East Indian service. In 1905 she was bought in Japan and re-named Togo Maru No. 1, having several changes of ownership before she was pur chased by the Yamashita Steamship Company in 1927 for a high price at the top of the boom. She was wrecked in the summer of 1923,
