    3. Thanks for the thought, Marg. I have made extensive use of the digitised Singapore newspapers over the last month -- what a great resource!! However, it did not help me with the President Coolidge dates. There were no news reports or passenger lists during that period, and the advertisements for President Line sailings were not consistent, so I was not able to work out the dates with any confidence. Hence my hope that someone on the TSL list knows where to look <g>.
