THE YARN OF OLD
HARBOUR TOWN

W. CLARK RUSSELL
AUTHOR OF "THE ROMANCE OF A MIDSHIPMAN," ETC., ETC.

SECOND IMPRESSION

"Have you ne'er heard the yarn of Old Harbour Town?

She was sweeter than Hinda or Haidèe;

When the hatches were flush with goods, victuals and lush,

The Captain made sail with the lady."

—Old Rhymes, 1835.
