Shipmaster's Appointment.

Members of the nautical profession will be interested to

hear that the captain who was in command of the ship which, as announced in the Press some time ago, was sunk by an enemy seaplane, has now been appointed to temporaly command of an- other ship in the same company: It is unfortunate that the destruction of his ship should have been affected by the first seaplane which attacked him, as the gunners in his ship brought the second seaplane down, and the crew were taken prisoners. It is interesting to recall that merchant ships have on several occasions during the war been attacked by enemy aircraft, more especially those trading to Dutch ports, but this was the first could a success in this way. Vessels belonging to & well- known fleet of coasting vessels sailing out of Liverpool were repeatedly

sttacked Bome eighteen months, or so ago by seaplanes, and in this connection it will be remembered that two captains in this company were publicly awarded for their services in bringing their ships safely through, although heavily attacked

In another case a ship, was torpedoed without warning in somewhat similar circumstances, The crow took to the boats, and were pulling to a rescue ship when an enemy torpedo bost fired a torpedo which went clean through the small boat contain ing the captain's crew of the first-named boat and sank hér, the captain and crew being all drowned.
