_--How is the stoking done on a big steam ship?
_Answer. _--In a Royal West Indian Mail Steam Packet, in which I wasstoker, there were forty-five stokers and coal trimmers, forty-fivesailors, besides a number of stewards, stewardesses, six engineers, sixship's officers, several mail officials, butchers, bakers, and a brassband of eighteen musicians. There were two stoke-holds, one fore and oneabaft the funnel, and four boilers in each, and four furnaces in eachboiler, and three stokers in each ...stoke-hold, also three trimmers ineach stoke-hold. There was the same method of working in bothstoke-holds, and a constant and continual round of firing kept up dayand night. When going down on watch I have a piece of waste in each handto protect them from the hot handrails; I commence work by cleaning thesmall tubes of four furnaces, then clean out the four furnaces, rake outthe ashes from the pit and fill them and the clinkers into iron buckets, which the sailors haul up and empty over the ship's side.
