“There was a piece of reddish-colored petrified wood,
measuring about twelve inches by
nine and about an inch thick. ‘You may
examine it as much as you like,’ said the Archbishop. It was obviously petrified wood, as the grain was clearly
visible, but having expected to
see a piece of wood that was curved like
the side of a boat, I remarked that I was surprised to find it was flat. Archbishop Mesrop had a sense of humor. He instantly remarked, ‘You have forgotten the rudder, Mr. Wells!’
So this was the piece of wood I had come so far to see,
and the thing that so many
other travelers, including Lord Bryce, had been unsuccessful in seeing.”
