Mooring Lines are tied to old stock anchors on the beach. The coal was carried aboard in baskets on a pole by two natives. This was Pocahontas coal from West Va. The rest of the Asiatic fleet used Japanese coal". Courtesy Naval Historical Foundation, Fred Iverson Collection (Photo No NH 54426). | Robert Hurst | |
