Mr. Justice Hawke rebuked &

"If this accident was the plain-

recover or not. on the scene of operations, said that the raising of the vessel was the most difficult proposition they had undertaken. "Yet the wreck came to the surface exactly as we calculated it would," he added.
Compressed air had been pumped into the hull of the wreck to force 'down the level of water within her as she lay on the sea bottom. This enabled the salvage men to go down 23 fathoms and patch the hull, seal up parts here and there, and partition off the ship into com- partments, so that the raising could be regulated from the Hat of 16 degrees to an even "keel.”
The keel is now above the sea surface, while the superstructure of the great ship. is below water:
"When the wreck rose to the sur- face thousands of tons of water. mud, alme, seaweed, fish, and shellish were projected high into the air by the force of the com pressed air that was spilled, and the salvage men proceeded to shovel back into the sea many tons of shellfish which were clinging to' the hull.
May I ask, did you pay me the compliment of istening to a single word of what I said to you when I summed up this case. The plaintiff here claims £390 special damages. Do you mean" you give him that sum only-"
The foreman of the jury replied that they did, and added that they had written down the reasons for their verdict.
A note was handed to his Lord- ship, who, after reading it, exclaim. ed: "Really, what is the good of my summing-up to you twelve ladies and gentlemen in A town like Leeds, where I should expect to and hard-headed North coun- trymen?”
When the jury returned after theft second retirement, Mr. Justice Hawke entered judgment for the plaintif for £390 with costs, arid he granted a stay of execution.
