We say. "Let the dead past , bury the dead", but the Past
is never dead. It has only changed and a part of it will meet
you face to face as you turn some corner, when you least
expect it.
We would have no Present and
no Future, but for the Past. So
men by searching, can find out God.
The Bible says . "In the beginning,
God said, 'Let there be Light and
there was Light.'" God, the Crea-
tor, was there then. We in the
Christian era have a Saviour to
show us all we will ever know or
be able to understand of God and j
his laws. The beginning and the
end we can never know, but with-
out his Creation in the past, we
would not be here, nothing would
be here, no stars, no Heaven , no
land , no sea, no evidence of life
at all.
We must be satisfied with that.
Cape Cod was noted for its brave
sea captains and before that the
Cape Cod Canal was put through J
it, going around the Cape in one of
the so called coastal vessels was
rough and dangerous. I know be-
cause I went around once when I |
was 11 years old , in the Western
Star, Captain George Crowell of
Hyannis. just to Boston and was I
seasick. I stayed in my berth near-
ly all the time. I soon recovered
when we landed however , and had
a never to be forgotten time.
All ships kept log books that con-
tained records of what happened on
the trip, the weather , the latitude ,
longitude and what happened to
the crew and the ship itself. The
mate usually did this work. My
mother started to use one of the
old log books for a scrapbook and
put odd poems and sayings in it .
It was the log of the Bark Rest-
less. Frederick G. Lathrop, Master.
It was started before I was born ,
some of the articles are dated 1S57.
The mate 's name I never knew as
it was covered with items.
In later years wnen 1 was old
enough to read I knew Captain
Lathrop and his family very well,
in fact his little daughter was my
fir3t real chum. Every Saturday as
long as she lived after we became
friends we met at first one home
and then the other for play and
once her mother went on a trip
[ on the Restless with the Captain
and she stayed six weeks at our
house. EOte was just my age but
she died at the age of 18, although
she was the Qicture of health and
1 was a thin little girl and am still
a thin Old lady. None of my people
were ever tat, that 's one thin g I'll
• ( have to worry about , that
I mny be overweight.

We called it the "Sandy
v. rgan" book. He seemed to be
the most Important person on board
ship. "Sandy Morgan sick",
dy Morgan still sick and off
duty " and finally "Sandy Morgan
.it his own request, when we ar-
I at N'ew York, was taken
Aug. 20, 1S">7 to a hospital and put
under a doctor 's care." The next
day all his clothing and effects
were sent to his home. That' s the
last we ever heard of Sandy Mor-
gan, as a sailor. It led to a slogan
that we used when we were sick.
Someone would say, "How do you
feel today?" "Oh, I'm just a Sanely
Morgan ", which meant miserable.
Captain Lathrop, when I knew
the family, lived in the house cor-
ner of South Street and Pope's
Lane. Winnie Hamblin lived there
afterwards. In looking over the
scrapbook I found many interest-
ing items. I had also been allowed
to print my name in it and draw
some figures of what were sup-
posed to be females of the species.
Heads with slim waists and no
arms, a top knot that was meant
for a waterfall . The heads were all
alike, evidently I had no great
imagination then.
One article in the book was in-
teresting "Curiosities of the Bible".
I am quoting some of it as not
many people would have time to do
what this man did even if they
wanted to. He must have been a
great criminal , for he was sen-
tenced to solitary imprisonment tor
life in a State Prison. Probably
there was a Bible in his room as
that is put in all rooms. I believe.
His name was not given and we
will never know about his life but
we think that one day when he
could stand the deathly silence no
longer , he opened the Bible and
glanced through it c arefully. May-
be some passage touched his heart
and at last he made the study of
its contents his life work. Maybe
.he repented of his sins whntever
they were. He musl have had a
kind jailer who supplied him with
paper and pencils tor it was a long
tedious job.
Each subjec t he took up, he
must go through the whole Bible
and the light in a prison cell was
very dim and he could work only
a few hours at a time, but he called
attenti on to many things .
We have discovered a few more
that he did not have In that article
and some may be printed wrong,
for printers often make mistakes—
as an old man used to say, "I can't
read my own writin g after it gets
cold." I will add a tew things that
he overlooked which I think are
worth noting and there may be
many more.
You can believe almost anything
from or by the Bible—but I like to
believe that "God is Love " and will
I only chastise for our good.
The Bible contains 3.5SG.4S9 let-
ters, "73,692 words. 31,173 verses,
1,189 chapters , 66 books. The word
"and" occurs 46, 279 times, the word
"Lord" 1.S55 times. The word "Rev-
erend'' only once in the 9th verse
of the 111th Psalm. The middle
verse is the 8th verse of the 118th
Psalm. The 21st verso of the 7th
Chapter of Ezra contains all the
letters of the alphabet except J.
Also the finest chapter to read is
the 26th chapter of the Acts. The
19th chapter of II Kings and the
37th chapter of Isaiah are much
alike , and the 19th Chapter of He*
kiah sends a me-sage to Isaiah.
The longest verse is the Sth chap-
ter of Esther. The Sth, 15th and
31st verses of the 107th Psalms
are alike. There are no names or
words longer than six syllables.
The shortest verse in the Bible is
the verse of the 11th chapter of
St. John , "Jesus wept. " The 119th
Psalm is the longest. This from the
book.
"Jesus Wept", are the saddest
words in the Bible. After all he had
suffere d even to death on the
Cross, to think that anybody could
so touch his heart as to bring tears
to his eyes and cause him to weep
must have been too saddened for
words.
We will add a few other things
: we found . There is no mention of
Lord or God in the Chapter of
Esther and II Kings , verses 12 to
19, are the same as Isaiah 39.
There is also the 11th command-
ment , John 14-34 . and another two-
Word verse in I Thessalonians, 5th
chapter , 16th verse, "Rejoice Ever-
more", a little more cheerful.
The longest Psalm is< the 119th.
Probably there are more wonder-
ful things to be found. You can
prove almost anything by follow-
ing the different passages in the
Bible, but I like to think that "God
is Love" and only punishes us
when it is for our good; perhaps
when we have paid the penalty for
our wrong we shall be cleansed as
by fire and go on courageously to
seek Divine guidance. The 23rd
Pslam is my favorite , "He re-
storeth my soul" is the promise I
love.
