THEIR KEEPING—SPRING
STORMS DISASTROUS
LONDON, June 19—Bishop’s Light,
rising from a foundation of jagged
rock near the Scilly Islands, welcomes
eastbound liners to the English chan
nel and at the same time gives grim
warning of the nearby labyrinth of
dangers. It stands guard over the wat
ers where rest the skeletons of more
shipwrecks than any other marine
graveyard of the world.
The light is 150 feet above the sea
level, yet the waves that break for
ever at the base of the rock constant
ly dash over its topmost masonry. So
trying is the service at Bishop’s Light
j that the three tenders are given fre
quent vacations ashore. Two months
of duty with one month ashore is the
rule.
Nearly Fell
During a recent spring storm the
beams from Bishop Rock came near
to falling. The light weighs several
tons and revolves on supports resting
in a circular trough of mercury, bal
anced so delicately a child may trun
it by a touch of the finger. On this
night the tower was so shaken by the
heavy seas that much of the mercury
was spilled out over the concrete floor
of the light chamber. The three guards
fell on their knees, scooped up the
mercury in their hands and poured it
back into the trough. Pursuing active
puddles of quicksilver around a rough
cement floor was not an easy nor rap
id job, and they finished finally with
torn and bleeding hands.
If the tower of Bishop’s Light ever
crumbles, the keepers there will not
have the faintest chance for their
lives. There is not even foothold on
the rough slimy rocks below.
