r, and who the owners? From the names given we might infer that some were built for the East India trade. The half models of six are preserved in the Historical building. One of these is that of the Avon, built in the short time of twenty-six days—a privateer in 1815. Another reminder of the vanished industry is the rigged model of the Syren (see Register, Vol. XXII, p. 76) and a photograph of the same lying at wharf.

The Jubilee menu was done ample justice and the Jubilee address was by Rev. Dr. H. H. Crane of Malden Center church, a wonderfully inspiring one.
