Description
Excerpt from The Whaleman: And Other Sea-Songs
The thought was seized upon by the people of New Bedford, who wondered that nobody had thought of the matter before.
The above is an extract from one of many articles written on the subject of The Whaleman, and his Statue, which was proposed in a little song written and published ten years ago, come May.
There may be divers reasons, and none of them wonderful, why the suggestion was not ooffered before.
Perhaps people addicted to wondering are not given to thinking. The Scriptures show us in sundry places that people used to marvel an awful lot in the old times before the Public School became an Institution.
