Career of Captain Hartley, Who Will Command
Mighty Leviathan, Inspiration To American Boy”.
V . • . -
Capt H artley a? a, Cadet.
Captain HerWert Hartley, Commander of S. S. Leviathan.
NBW YORK, May 8.—©tertiind th<
appointment just announced of Cap
tain Herbert Hartley to take comman
o' the great steamship Lrviatha-,
shortly to enter the Trans-Atlantic sefv
ict under the house flag of the Unitei
States Lines, lies a story that shouli
servr as an inspiration to all America!
ooys.
In attaining to the command of th<
mighty Leviathan Captain Hartle;
has realized his dret n of dreams A
a stripling yearning tor a career, hi
dteamed of the day *hen he might hi
in command of a -vessel but in hi
wildest flights of fancy he did not pic
turc himself in command of the won
der ship of the seven seat—the great
esi ship under the American flag
Born in Oswego Falls, N Y., it
1*75 Captain Hartley early developei
a lovt of the sea, largely influence;
through his reading of books devotee
to ships and the stirring adventures o'
men who followed nautical careers
After finishing hit preliminary school
ing, the young man determined to stan
off on a sea-faring career This wa.
not altogether agreeable to his father
and when he determined to become a
cadet on the frigate Saratoga, loaned
by the United States Navy Depart
ment to the State of Pennsylvania as a
training ship, he exnendkd five dollan
of hla meagre saving* to induce aa
elderly acquaintance to post as lit
I father and give the necessary permit- i
-1 sion for his enlistment During hit
I I two year*’ service aboard the Sara-I
. j toga, young Hartley visited many of;
• the world's most interesting ports and;
I ! was taught seamanship by two young
I officers then rating as ensigns, but who ;
i later came into prominence during the
world war as high officers These two
• men were Admiral William S Sims
■ and Captain William H Fletcher ]
i Following hi* graduation with high 1
1 honor* af the age of twenty, young1
• Hartley entered the service of the 1
i American Line as a cadet—this was in
- 1 895—and he continued steadfastly
with that line until hit recent appoint
ment to the command of the Leviathan
During hit service as an apprentice,
voung Hartley was a member of the
crew* of the St Paul St Louii, Phila
delphia Neva Y or h and Kroonland.
The greater part of Captain Hart
ley’s career was spent aboard the S S
St Louis In this connection it might
be pointed out that Captain Hartley’s
sea service it unique in the annals of
American Merchant Marine history in
that he was with the vessel from the
time of her launching until he attained
to the command
During the World War, the St.
Louie, renamed the Louiiville, was
active In transport service. As eom
liirtandpr of th* laoudsvMJe which was
iJiUio fir* armed American merchant
»nip to dare the Uerraan submarine
cordon and which made a gloriou;
record of transporting troops to «nd
fiom the battlefields of Flanders, Cap
tain Hartley earned for himself man-;
honors, including the navy cross for
exceptional devotion to duty and brav
ery Following the war Captain Hart
ley commanded various vessels flying
the American flag and when thv
United States Shipping Board took up
the question of a commander for the
great Ltviathan, Captain Hartley
early loomed up as a dominating
figure. When the word was brought
to Captain Hartley that he had been
chosen commander of the L'viathait,
he was silent for a time, and then re
marked to a group of Mends . “This
will make Emily happy* Emily, the
guiding spirit of Captain Hartley's
life. Is his fourteen-year-old and
motherless daughter
When Captain Hartley waa recently
asked as to whether or not he had a
hobby, he replied that he had two'
one his daughter Emily and the other,
books. This statement succinctly sums
up the personality of the Lewalhaw
commander It is a personality that
will endear him to the thousands of
travelers who will this summer cross^
tlio Alttantlc on the greatest nt.aa.ui
sihip tinder the American flag.
