Inland Gulf Waters Teem With Wealth and Curious Tales
The gulf of California hosts abundant tuna Spanish mackerel and dolphins, with the dolphin crowned as monarch of the gulf near Armen Island. A steamer witness described hundreds of dolphins chasing the vessel, their antics likened to a bustling street scene. Also recounted is a Buckley-era reminiscence where elder relatives calculate ages to prove a century and a half since a brother’s death, and a reflection on children rising early to study, warning that youth needs intellectual rest to sustain future effort. The piece also touches on Dickens and Rogers anecdotes about storytelling at a dining table with a servant’s whispered admonitions.
