According to Joseph Keenan, manager ot the Henshaw, who made the trip abroad In 1M7 on the KmDress of Britain. sister isp of the one Just sunk, the Britain had nlwnys been considered un lucky since Its first voyage, whereas the Ireland, now at the bottom ot tbe sen. lied enjoyed the reputation of being the lucky vessel of the two. Regular and persistent good fortune had always followed the Ireland on Its voyages, Keenan says. On the other hand, the Britain, which Is stltl In navigation, had frequently had 111 'omens attend Its sailings. On Its maiden voyage, he says. It had a slight mishap, on Its thirteenth voyage propeller trouble had hindered It, and only a year ago It had collided with a coal barge. Sailors, therefore, consid ered the Britain unlucky, while the Ire land, which now has had the worst ot fates, always bore a reputation of good fortune. Postal Delivery to Be Out Saturday!
