Excerpt from Brother Jonathan, Vol. 3 of 3: The Smartest Nation in All Creation

Playfair spent the first morning in the dock yard, where the carpenters were breaking up some of the ribs of Anson's old Centurion; two square pieces of which, cut out of one of the ﬂoor-timbers, the superintendent gave him: the one to present, on returning to England, at her drawing-room, to the queen; the other to make into a cigar-case for himself, and into snuff-boxes for the first lord of the Admiralty, and for several ancient but amiable spinsters, mutual friends of, not her majesty, but of Mr. Hugo Playfair.
