"Mayflower" Sails Again
British shipwrights and car
penters are busy at ancient Brix
ham, building a replica of the
historic ship of the Pilgrim
Fathers, under the direction of
the noted American naval archi
tect, W. A. Baker, of the Beth
lehem Steel Corporation. The
keel of . the original "May
flower," hewn from a Devon for
est, was laid at a Brixham yard
350 years ago.
The new ship will next year
sail the course followed by the
first "Mayflower" 335 years ago,
to Cape Cod and the Plymouth
Harbor of New England's "stern
and rockbound coast." Date is
not decided.
Many interesting items have
sprouted from the main story.
One is that tree crops thrive on
the Devon woodlands after re
peated cuttings as well as they
do in our Douglas fir region.
"A fine big stick," was the
verdict of Steel Man Baker on
the keel that had been hewn in
the way of old from new timber,
then brought in to be dressed
and seasoned at Upham Ship
yards. The keel laying was the first
formal ceremony of the project.
A British Mayflower descend
ant, D. K. Winslow, retired
Royal Navy officer, was given
the honor of laying the keel.
A Project Pattern
The British are better than we
are at such observances. Now
and then as at the restoration of
Lewis and Clark's Fort Clatsop,
we properly honor our early
pioneers. Usually, however, we
commemorate pioneer life and
times with parades and pageants
that mean little or nothing. Or
the men grow beards despite
the simple fact that pioneers be
fore the Civil war had no beards.
In the Mother Country these
observances are better managed.
"The Mayflower Project" is
the name of the program that is
now well into the building stage
at Brixham. It was thought up
by British and American nota
bles who have a mutual interest
in fortifying friendship between
the two countries. Official ap
proval has come from both sides
of the Atlantic but the financing
has been altogether by public
contributions. And so some day
next year the "Mayflower" will
sail again from Southampton,
with "Pilgrims" aboard.
Lumbermen should find work
to do in this observance before
it is too late. It seems a shame
indeed to leave it entirely to a
steel man even though he is
evidently doing a bang-up job
cf promoting a wood-ship proj
ect. Land Won on Wood ...
The Mayflower Project pro
vides a pattern that should be
studied in history-conscious
Washington and Oregon. The
early voyages of discovery and
exploration along our coasts
vere made on ships of wood.
Nearly all of the ships bore
away timbers from what Capt.
George Vancouver called the
world's best source of masts and
spars. Many of the vessels were
planked anew with Western red
cedar.
The first commercial building
jobs in the region were those of
building ships of native woods,
on prefabricated frames. Capt
John Meares built the "North
west America" at Nootka Sound
in 1788, and two years later
Capt. Robert Gray's men . built
the "Adventure" at Clayoquot
Sound. Then in 1811 the Asto
rians launched a smart little
schooner, the "Dolly," for trade
on the Columbia and the coast.
Today's Astorians will soon
be thinking about the observ
ance of this community's sesqui
centennial. The ' plans for the
first ship built in Oregon might
be in the old records, as the
frame was shipped around the
Horn. May the "Dolly" sail
again!
