Steamer City of Worcester, once the pride of the Sound 1l oomed. Negotiations are pending old steamer will be dispose New England Navigation er recently at Stonington and as in- ventories have been taken it is consid- ered many of these mean business. The anchors and chains of the steamer have been stripped off and divided among other steamers of the flest at Newport. tings have been put Richard Peck. The smokestacks were threatened by wind menths ago and ‘were taken down. Carved pilasters, which every per- son who ever visited the Worcester's saloon will remember, have been Tre- moved. These added materially to the cost of the steamer whefi she was built in 1881 and served no other than ornamental purposes. They are . birds, fairies and nymphs fashioned in ebony and white holly. Several of the figures have been cut out and sent to the offices of the company at New- port, where they will be ai as decorations and souvenirs of the old ‘Worcester. Steamboat men say of the ter, “She was too big an eater.” The fact that she consumed too much coal to make her operation profitable caused the company to decide not to make repairs that were nec: when the local board of United States inspectors refused to -recertificate her. She was tied up because her bailers were in unsafe condition. 1 The hull of the Worcester is of iron, ‘and according to Teport is in as good \State of repair as hulls many years ‘newer. Despite the fact that the hull has been under water three times it still holds its original shape. The joiner work on the steamer is re- mrarkably well preserved. posed of-—Tied up at Dock at Stonington—Hull Said to BeSt;flinGoodSIl-pe—Stemeris&Yenuou ity The last of the Worcester's run- ning as a spare boat found her hull fit for years more of usage. Modern steamboat men, however, object to the way she settles at the head roots up the water with great resistance. Although never a speedy boat for this the Worcester had trouble ia making her runs -anywhere near schedule time during the last of her belng in commission. Her boilers failed to drive her, even with an enormous consumption of fuel, to any- Hhelre near a speed that was prac- cal. It was Captain Horace Clark Lan- phere who made the Worcester famous —in all probability it was the Worces- ter which made Captain = Lanphere famous. He was master of the big side wheeler for most of her active running and navigated her with few mishaps. Captain William D. Ward succeeded Captain Lanphere. Joseph Carter of Laurel Hill, the veteran engineer, brought out the Worcester and remain- ed in charge of the engine room as long as she was run regularly. Beyond bumping a few car floats in East river, it is said that Captain Lan- phere had no_serious trouble in the ‘Worcester. After he left her she went on Bartlett Reef, later on Eastern Point and afterward on Cormorant Reef. In 1910 Inspectors Withey and Stewart condemned the Worcester be- cause of the condition of her boilers. She was then being used as a spaTe Dboat. After that she never moved from her wharf at Stonington. Proposals for the disposition of the Worcester are soon to be taken into| consideration by the directors of the company. That she will follow in the wake of the Rhode Island and other less worthy craft is predicted by men on the Norwich line, on which she ran for the most of her 32 years of ex- istence. READ PAPER ON MAKING OF A SERMON. | J. R. Danforth Before Congrega- tienal Ministers of the County. R Rev. J. Romeyn Danforth, pastor of the First Congregational church of New London, read an interesting paper on The Making of a Sermon, Tuesday afternoon in the chapel of the Second Congregational church in that city, ‘where the New London County Con- gregational Ministers’ association held an all day session. The meeting opened at 10.30 a. m. with devotional services led by Rev. H. O. Barrows of Norwich Town, mod- erator. The paper of the morning session was by Rev. A. F.
