Only Man Who Knew How to Can the
Meat Is Dead-May Not Have
Told the Secret.

James McMenamin, the only success
full canner of crab meat in the world,
has just died in the hospital at Balti-
more, ant-it is feared that his secret
has died with him, reports New York
exchange. He is believed to have made
$1,000,000 out of crab canning by run
ming large cannery at Hampton, Va,
for six months in the year, but he kept
the process hidden even from his work
people, and unless his will divulges it
or he confded the secret to his sons
before his death, the canning plant will
have to be shut down and nobody may
ever know why it's proprietor succeed
ed where others failed.
Mr.. McMenamin went to Virginia
from Massachusetts in 1878. While
working as clerk for Mayor White
head, of Norfolk, it came out that he
knew how crab meat could be canned
without losing it's flavor and Mayor
Whitehead helped him to establish a
small cannery at Hampton. In time the
small cannery was replaced with big
ger one, but never has the big one been
aDle to meet all the demands upon it
for canned crab meat.
During the six months of the year
when the cannery was open the pro-
prietor was the busiest man in it. A
large force of colored women picked
the meat from the crabs. 1t was sent
to a locked room in which Mr.. McMen-
amin personally attended to it's prepa-
ration. Then it was sealed in the cans.
Last year the demand for canned
crab meat was unprecedented and the
man with the secret, when he died,
was wondering how he could increase
the output for this year..
