A poetic fragment by Joe Lincoln describes the Gov ments hired man patrolling the shore during a mighty storm. It evokes wrathful seas and families at risk, with waves, reefs and a brutal north wind testing lifeguards and officials.
The account recalls the Count Perasto wreck near Barnegat Inlet New Jersey in 1839 where 13 crew drowned and bodies washed ashore. It highlights the later U S life saving system, Coast Guard beginnings and Dr William A Newell’s role in securing funds and stations along the Atlantic coast.
