Excerpt from Capn Chadwick: Marblehead Skipper and Shoemaker Born Nov. 18, 1809, truly a year of grace, seeing that it was the birth year of Lincoln and Darwin, Tennyson, Holmes, and Gladstone. My father had no public reputation whatsoever, but I dare believe he was as good as even the best of these. He was born in Marblehead, Mass in the house which sets back from the street, opposite the Unitarian meeting-house. The old meeting house was standing then. It gave place to the new one in 1832, the first year of my father's skippership. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
