That even a strike cannot break up the day-to-day movement of life was illustrated Tuesday when, in a manner grandly reminiscent of clipper ships days, the Queen Mary slipped into port helped only by a rowboat, several stevedores, and St. Christopher. Owing to the New York tugboat strike, the Cunard liner did not have its customary twelve pushers as it arrived off the Fiftieth Street pier in early morning sunlight.

They drove Marlborough to exile, but he revenged himself with interest when he returned to riches and honors at Queen Anne's death. They hatched the great South Sea Bubble swindle, but Marlborough forced the Government...
