    as the Master of any Vessel is desirous
    of removing her from one place to an-

    to the Harbour Master, who shall

    Vessel; and if there is no crew of the
    Vessel to be removed, or the crew
    thereof refuse or fail to aid and assist
    as aforesaid, or if the crew, or tackle,
    or quantity of ballast on board of such
    vessel is not sufficient to enable the
    Harbour Master to effect such removal,
    he is empowered to hire and employ
    such other assistance and tackle, and
    to purchase and put on board such Ves-
    sel such other quantity of ballast as to
