One Hundred Years Gone By
The dark and rainy morning has put me in a reflective mood.Ā Given the historic damage done by Hurricane Florence and the uncertainty following the gas disaster in Andover and Lawrence, my mind turns to other monumental disasters.Ā One hundred years ago the Flu Pandemic reached into Gloucester and the surrounding areas.Ā Each day in late September and through mid October, the newspaper reported on the growing number of flu deaths.Ā While I do not know the final numbers, the highest number I saw reported was 180 people within about month as of October 14 1918. It must have been very frightening for all but it seems the city handled the pandemic admirably.
This is an example from the Gloucester Daily Times Sept 17 1918 of the precautions taken.Ā The microfilm quality isn’t great, but it gets the idea across.
As we see from Florence and in Andover/Lawrence, disasters tend to bring out the best in people and I imagine this did the same at the time.Ā Disasters past and present remind us to be kind, take good care and stay vigilant.

It was eighty years ago, while GERTUDE L THEBAUD was racing BLUENOSE in the International Fishermenās Races, that a photo of Sterling Hayden, navigator on THEBAUD, appeared in the Boston Post. So many women swooned that Hollywood noticed, brought him to the screen, and then, in 1964, cast him as Jack D Ripper in Dr. Strangelove.
One never knows whoās eyeing Good Morning Gloucester.

A FINE FROGGY DINNER FOR A LITTLE BLUE HERON
Juvenile Little Blue Heron
Dining all the day long on tender tiny bullfrogs, I wonder how many a juvenile heron eats throughout the course of a day. And wonder too, why there are any remaining in our ponds. A young frog appears to be one of the choicest of foods to feed the voracious appetites of otters, herons, and egrets.
