It is reported that a sale is being negotiated of the Anchor Line, of Glasgow, or, to give it ita full title, Anchor Line (Henderson Brox.), Lud. In that bracketed name there remalas a link with the past and with the four brothers who were founders of the Line over eighty years ago.

The four Hendersons, David, Thomas, John and William; in that order of their ages, came from the little village of Pittenweem, in Fifeshire, and alt grew up in an Atmosphere of sea and shipping, because, although fishing was the main industry, the little port also had a trade of coastal and deep-sea of shipping, bringing cargoes guano and lumber and loading Baited fish and woollen goods.

All four boys began their sea- faring in very early life, and, be- cause in those days of the 1840's, skill, courage, and practical ex- than perience counted for more passing school examinations, the four rose to command their own Vessels in their early twenties. David, the eldest, being a Master before he was twenty-one.

A shrewd business ability und were also knowledge of markets essential to the success of a ship master then because it was the usual practice to leave to the Mas- ter the business of disposing of the cargo in a distant port, the chalce of goods and the bargaining for a homeward bound cargo. forms of The brothers must have 'ncquired some reputation in this direction also to have brought the connection which led to founding the Line.

Two Glasgow citizen, Nicol and Robert Handyside, had started business in 1838 us shipbrokers and merchants, the bulk of their trade being with Russian and Baltic ports, possibly because Nicol at the time was Russian Consul in Glas gow.
