| [TSL] "The Water Witch" |  |  |

Hello,
I visited thrift shops and second-hand shops all the time, and I was in one
today. A small item I found was a ceramic-tile which had a drawing of a
"clipper ship" on it, and the name at the bottom of the tile said, "The
Water Witch."
I just went on-line to see what I could find and there seems to have been
different kinds of ships with that name:

FYI sites:

http://civilwar.bluegrass.net/battles-campaigns/1864/640603.html
(more sites mention the name)
Just an FYI for you.
Betty (near Lowell, MA)
P.S. I've been corresponding with the Help Desk about a List I wish to
start up, and they told me about a List I did not know about. Perhaps
people on this List already know about it:
