Author:	Cobb, Sylvanus, 1823-1887
Date:	June 25, 1892
First Sentence:	On the western shore of Penobscot Bay, between Belfast and Camden, there was a small club of fishermen's cots, inhabited by a hardy set of men, who had, from infancy, been brought up amid the music of the breaking waves, and who knew no fear beneath the power of mortal man.
Last Sentence:	Before the sun had set on the next day, the English prisoners were all landed at Belfast, and Captain Enoch Nightingale found himself in command of as handsome a privateer as floated in American waters, and until peace was declared and the embargo raised, he carried on a most destructive trade among the British merchantmen.
