Captain Blaw said she was making 12. The court agreed with Blaw until Cap- tain Dake produced the speed record from a Nicholson Recording Ship Log. Then another “circumstantial evidence’ case fell before ‘‘positive proof’. At all times the dial shows the exact speed of the vessel; also permanently records it with the time and date on the record chart. This instrument pays for itself many times over in preventing damage suits for alleged excessive speeds in dangerous passages. Many lines require their Masters to turn these records over to the manager, who can see at a glance the whole performance of the ship while underway, and he files them for future reference. There isn’t a ship in the water that shouldn’t be equipped with this Nichol- Y son Recording Ship Log. Let us tell you more about it. Write for booklet and _ catalog, Nicholson Ship Log Co.
