Abstract


In the same manner as I watched the Rameswaram temple tower from the Ceylon steamer, I kept gazing on at the gradually receding majestic form of the snow-clad "Fuji" from the upper deck of the "Siberia Maru" as she left Yokohama harbour and was directing her course to the far-west, from the far-east, but in an easterly direction. Again a period of life at sea from the evening of the 9th December. The voyage on board the "Siberia Maru" was far more enjoyable than on the 'Suwa' since in this huge liner, there were numerous facilities for passengers to pass their time; there is a big library of books of various kinds and these are daily given on loan to those who wish to read; there are numerous deck games and in addition the ship's officers gave a cinema exhibition of Japanese views and history twice a week after evening-meals, in the big dining saloon, where all cabin class passengers were allowed to assemble.
