I remember on one occasion when on board a moored hulk, not a hospital ship, smelling in the evening something that called for mention, so I mentioned it. “Oh,” said my companions, more under the sway of bilge water than I was, from their greater knowledge of its power, “it’s only our bilge water.” In the morning we found’ it was the rotting eareass of an ele phant that had floated down the river and now hung-In the mooring chain. After 4 considerable time was spent in getting rid of the carcass I said, “For goodness’ sake, gentlemen, stir up. your bilge water, and let the smells fight it out together while we go ashore for a spell.”. “No,” said my companions, terror stricken at the suggestion. “You do not know our bilge water when its back’s up. It would stretch you if you were half way across Africa. This elephant is mere lavender water to it.” This was a more dreadful bilge water than a hospital ship would have.
