William Btitlef Dtinean, Jr. 
Through the courtesy of the Home Journal we repro- 
duce the picture of William Butlet Duncan, Jr., who is 
to manage the new defender of the America Cup. Mr. 
Duncan is a graduate of the Naval Academy, and during 
his course there was noted for his ability as a seaman. 
On the sloop of war Vandalia he was signal officer, and 
was especially complimented for his excellent work by 
her commander, Capt. Wallace. When he resigned from 
the navy he interested himself in the Gorringe shif)build- 
ing enterprise, and acquired much practical knowledge in 
the art of ship construction. He was also master and 
pilot of one of the vessels used by the company. ■ When 
he retired from this enterprise he became an active boat 
WILLIAM BUTLER DUNCAN, JR. 
sailer. His first yacht was the cutter Yolande, then he 
purchased the 6sft. cutter Huron, which had a successful 
record during his ownership. He sailed Defender in the 
trial races against Columbr'a, where she made a fine 
showing, and he was one of the amateurs of the crews of 
Vigilant, Defender and Columbia. Mr. Duncan organized 
and trained tffe first Deer Island crew who were noted for 
their snappy work. For several years he was in command 
of the First Battalion, Naval Militia, and he was senior 
watch officer of the famous Yankee, a ten-gun 6ooo-ton 
ship during the war with Spain. To sum up, there is' not 
a man in the country who has had a better all-round 
training as a seaman and yachtsman than Mr. Duncan. 
His selection as manager of the new boat has deservedly 
met with the greatest satisfaction.
