Show 4595 Freeze- C 2614 Charles H. Spencer? A Looked that way to me. Q How wide was the Charles H. Spencer? You have given its length. A I don't know; probably sixteen feet, something like that; I wouldn't say; I really don't know; I don't know the exact length of it, either. Q On the second trip they brought more? A They had a little more coal the second trip than the first one. Q Two or three times as much, would you say? A No, I wouldn't say that; I think they had about five or six tons the second time; there was a little larger pile than they had the first time. Q The third time they had fifteen tons? A They had the front, the nose of the boat, had that pretty well covered with coal; we about fifteen or twenty tons. Q The third trip fifteen or twenty tons? A That was the third trip. Q How long before you left did they bring down that fifteen or twenty tons of coal? A They brought that down I would say about a month before, to my recollection. Q Was Mr. Charles H. Spencer there when you left? |
