Excerpt: ...They remained a fortnight later than usual, and where, the previous season, the fisherman had six weeks of good hauling, during the present one, ending the 1st of November, they scarcely earned their salt. These dog-fish are excessively annoying to fishermen. They swim in intermediate water, and intercept the bait to such a degree that it is almost impossible to reach the cod, which wait plenty enough at the bottom. They are as voracious as New Jersey mosquitoes, and not much more valuable when caught, as they have to be, yielding only a little oil and thin substance not profitable for land dressing. With a good catch of Fall fish, ordinarily, the fishermen haul up their boats by the 1st of November, with contented hearts, their net profits adequate for their winter supply. Large codfish come in upon the shoal banks, say from six to ten fathoms, and often the Jennie B., with four men, would capture from 3000 to 4000 pounds. Some fifty men were engaged this season, in the fruitless pursuit of fish. Herring were plenty in October, though they usually strike off in the Fall. A visit to the Pool about the middle of October revealed the true condition of things. The boys had been out scouring the rocks and trolling for fish, without success, but Capt. Frank had struck a bonanza of herring, and was busy bailing them out from a 16-foot dory, in which, from the lack of barrels, they had been salted. These herring were the product of two nets, set outside of Wood Island, into which sixty barrels of herrings had put themselves. These nets sank to the bottom, requiring six men, two dories and a seine boat to raise them so that they could be picked. One of the nets was entirely destroyed and the other one damaged. The herring were all transferred to...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gleanings From the Sea: Showing the Pleasures, Pains and Penalties of Life Afloat With Contingencies Ashore There are two phases of deep-sea fishing, one called shore, the other bank. It is of the former that I shall Speak, from experience, and of the latter, state some facts obtained from other sources. Shore fishing (so called by the fishermen) is where the fishermen go from three to thirty miles from land, and where their trips hardly ever exceed a fortnight, and are oftener less.

Book Gleanings from an Unplanned Life

Download or read book Gleanings from an Unplanned Life written by James L. Buckley and published by Isi Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I was born in an elevator in New York City's Women's Hospital in the early hours of March 9, 1923. That was the first of a series of unplanned, unanticipatable events that have shaped my life. It was also a rather unceremonious way to enter the world. I wouldn't have entered it at all, however, had it not been for an allergy gene that caused my paternal grandfather, who was beset by asthma, to abandon Canada for the starker landscape of south Texas. At least it seems unlikely that my father would have courted my New Orleans mother if he had been reared in Canada." "I grew up in a small rural community located in the northwest corner of Connecticut beyond commuting range from anywhere. I loved the life there; and while bobbing around the Pacific as a naval officer in World War II, I decided on a career as a country lawyer. After four years learning the trade at a New Haven law firm in preparation for a move to the country, I was lured away by my father and found myself working for a family business headquartered in New York City. Then through a series of wildly improbable circumstances, beginning with the decision of my brother Bill to run for the office of mayor of New York City on the strict understanding that he could not win, I have found myself among the very few who have served in high positions in all three branches of the federal government; in my case, as a senator, an under secretary of state, and, most recently, as an appellate judge."

  • Author : Arthur W. Pink
  • Publisher : Sovereign Grace Publishers,
  • Release : 2002-09
  • ISBN : 1589603125
  • Pages : 390 pages

Download or read book Gleanings in Exodus written by Arthur W. Pink and published by Sovereign Grace Publishers,. This book was released on 2002-09 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, the book of Exodus treats of the deliverance of Israel from Egypt; but viewed doctrinally, it deals with redemption. Just as the first book of the Bible teaches that God elects unto salvation, so the second instructs us how God saves, namely, by redemption. Redemption, then, is the dominant subject of Exodus. Following this, we are shown what we are redeemed for-worship, and this characterizes Leviticus, where we learn of the holy requirements of God and the gracious provisions He has made to meet these. In Numbers we have the walk and warfare of the wilderness, where we have a typical representation of our experiences as we pass through this scene of sin and trial-our repeated and excuseless failures, and God's long-sufferance and faithfulness.
