TABLE 4-1. The wood-types used in the hulls of ships built on Prince Edward Island between 1856 and 1876, as 
     
     recorded by the Lloyd's inspector. The data is a summation of the values in Table 4-1 based on a sample of twelve 
     
     ships for each of the years, and the numbers shown for each wood-type are the number of structural elements for which 
     
     the wood was listed by the inspector. The lower table presents the same data in the form of the percentage contribution 
     
     of each of the principal wood-types for each year.
