Landlubbers may not know what
fenders are, and the mariners who
know all about their use and abuse do
not, except in a few instances, know
where they come from. Fenders are
the heavy pieces of wood that are fre-
quently seen dangling from the sides
of tugs and other harbor craft. Their N
correct name, according to ancient
maritime lore, was defenders, and
their purpose then a9 now was to de-
fend the sides of the craft on which
they serve against damage in contact
with pier heads and unimpressionablo
sides of steel. The fenders aro at-
tached to the sides by a lashing, and
when the boat is under way and not
I likely to immediately touch any hard
: object are tipped so that they rest on
the rail. An Englewood farmer makes
! a specialty of turning out fenders. Ho
— i has the patronage of the revenue
wrongs are of more import- 1 marine service, the navy yard tugs
I and a number of the biggest tugboat
• firms, not only of this port, hut also
: Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia.
| All of his fenders are cut from guru
I trees, which, experts say, is the hard-
1 est wood to split. Young hickory also
makes tough ones. Fenders cost from
50 to 75 cents each and an active tug-
boat uses about 25 of them each year.
Fenders have been known to serve ln
other rapacities than protecting sides
and feeding furnaces. During the late
war the navy tug Uncas, in command
' of Boatswain Angus, was sent to jo,vi
the blocking fleet off Havana. The
Uncas was entirely una&rmed and when,
in the middel or the Straits of Florida
a Spanish steamer was sighted. The
steamer made for the Uncas, and
Boatswain Angus promptly rigged hio
fenders so that they resembled a bat-
tery of dangerous guns sticking out on
either side. That settled the Spaniard,
and she turned tall and ran. The fend-
er battery of the Uncas was the laugh
of the blockading station for days
after.—New York Mail and Express.
