Old Commodore the Man-Eating Shark and Porpoise Chase
In 1883 aboard the United States schooner Para off Mosquito Inlet, a crew including Tom Stearns chase sharks and porpoises. The famed “Old Commodore” shark ambles near the boat, Tom dies heroically during a harpoon attempt, and a harpoon line snaps leading to a perilous capsize. After rescue, the incident ends with lingering fear of sharks and a cautionary tale about bleeding porpoises to lure sharks.

It also notes the strain of equality among peers and the value of spontaneous unselfish behavior.
