Seventy One Years Later A Boy Remembers His First Tintype Day
A seven year old recalls a May voyage from an island farm to a bustling city port on the City of Newport. He describes his mother’s sewing late at night, his first pair of shoes, the steamboat trip, the sanctuary of a Quaker upbringing, and a kind sailor who shared ship lore before an anxious mother fetched him back before the boat left. The memory anchors a lifelong sense of place and family resilience.
