THE NIMROD
GETTING READ? FOR THE VOYAGE.
By - Tclegrn ph.- -1-ress Associa lion. Christchurcli, Last Night,
Work was resumed on the Nimrod this morning, and the 'ship's company are now busily engaged in clearing up work and getting the vessel ready for sea. Captain Evans informed a reporter this morning fhat on Monday the Xiinrod will lie removed from her berth at the breast-work, near the Gladstone pier, to n more convenient berth at the outer end of the. east side of Xo. 3 wharf. From this berth the vessel will cast oil' on Tuesday afternoon and will be able to steam straight out through the moles without any preliminary manoeuvring. The vessel will sail from Lytteltou for the far south on the arrival of the 2.45 p.m. train from Christchurch on Tuesday, which means, that she will leave port at about 3.110 p.m. The Ximrod is now in deep trim and her draught on sailing day will be about the same as when she left Lyttelton on New Year's Day.
