| Notes: | Label source: Portion of Fender-Cap of the Ferry Steamer 'Stelling', Demerara River made of Greenheart. This has been exposed to all states of the weather, wet and dry, for upwards of 12 years. It shews that the sapwood of Greenheart readily decays, and, that a beam may be to outward appearance, worthless, the heart being at the same time perfectly sound. | ||||
