Wow. I especially like the part where "about fifty men"

Looks like they used the mixture as an anti-seize compound...


If white lead will harden castor oil then I would suppose the
opposite--that it was used as a thread-locking compound.

But if it does not harden, then I agree, anti-seize.

Only ten men to put the prop on ;-)
