6876 | Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, June 1, 1878 |
|
|
| Harry Alexander Ogden's famous drawing of the S.S. Cambria. The article begins: "In the landlocked waters of Southwest Harbor lies the now muchly talked of Cambria. A more adroit selection for a quiet berth could scarcely have been made; and when we came to take a glance at the trim and taut-looking vessel, we felt inclined to wonder, as with the fly in amber, "how the deuce she got there?” Southwest Harbor is about twenty-three miles from Ellsworth, Maine. To reach it, recalls those tortuous times when our forefathers ventured forth at rare intervals, their wills made, their flasks full, and their powder dry. The journey from New York to Boston, and from thence to Bangor, savors of the nineteenth century, but from Bangor to Ellsworth, and from Ellsworth to Southwest Harbor, speaks loudly of the eighteenth." | Description: Harry Alexander Ogden's famous drawing of the S.S.
