Frosty and J. A. Boyd Expected on July 18
The twin-screw Diesel-engined tug Frosty formerly the New Zealand tug Southland has left Sydney and is on her way to Shanghai with Capt. Potter in command. She tows the same company's newly purchased teg J. A. Boyd, formerly belonging te the Melbourne Harbour Trust.
The latter is not manned and is towed with her tiller lashed.
These vessels reached Sydney on May l0 and were to leave for the Far East on or about May 15. Be-Sides these two, the company has purchased two coastal steamers, the s. Mouya and Queensland, which were also to be towed to China by the Frosty, but latest news received state that they remained in Australia and are to start out for this port some time later, while the Frosty and the J. A. Boyd should enter port in about three weeks.
