Evening star., 1939-07-09

A family named Lay, probably re-
lated to the Carberys, owned and
occupied what is now the Walter
Reed Hospital grounds. and the
Reeves house was opposite.
1t is also certain that Elizabeth
Cor Aunt Betty') Thomas lived
close to the fort, for her cabin had
to be torn down, since it interfered
with the defense made by the Union
troops.
Early's first sight of Fort Stevens
convinced him that the works were
but feebly manned" In fact, this
opinion was justified, since the only
troops that were ready to defend
Washington at this time included
mainly convalescents from nearly
every regiment in the Army of the
Potomac, few Regulars and militia
made up of citizens and depart
mental employees. However, there
seemed to have been no lack of Off
GERS, for it was facetiously said that
there were -four times as many
generals in Washington as privates. -
Here was Earlys opportunity That
he faltered and failed was fortunate
for the country, but it Is probable
he would have succeeded had he
taken the chance then and there
Early's men needed rest. He was
willing to kill the enemy, but not
his own soldiers. While his army
was resting, the gallant 9th Corps

was hitting only the high spots on
the Seventh street pike (noW Geor-
gla avenue), and when, on the morn
ing of the 18th, he saw through his
glasses Gen. Wright's magnificent
army manning the fort in front of
him. he no doubt abandoned all in
tention Of attempting to enter the
Capital. True, the oath New York
Cavalry had already arrived from
the James, but even this reinforce
ment would not have been sufficient
to have repulsed Early without the
help of the 9Th Corps.
One OF the reasons assigned for
Early not entering Washington i'm
mediately upon his arrival was that
his men came upon perfectly good
barrel OF Bourbon whisky in the cell
lar of the home of Francis P. Blair
at Silver Spring and that they could
not be induced to leave it for fear
it might spoil or evaporate in their
absence. Montgomery Blair, then
Lincoln's Postmaster General, and
Francis P.'s son, lived nearby and
he did not fare so we'll, for his home
was burned.

ceived the following from a source
of great intelligence and reliability,
one that has on repeated occasions
had the earliest and most accurate
information of rebel movements in
Virginia. The information received
from this quarter is as follows:
The rebel army of invasion
marched down the valley $4,000
strong, including 5000 cavalry, under
command of Maj. Gen. Jubal Early
and Brig. Gems. Breckenridge, Ran
som, Imboden and McCausland.
Longstreet was at Gordonville on
Tuesday last with additional forces
to join the rebel army of invasion,
and the purpose of thatfarmy was
an attempt at the captureof Wash

duties"

mid-June. That first migration con-
tains the biggest number of fish.
Where they come from no one
knows. Whether from Cuba, straight
up the Gulf Stream, from waters far
offshore, or where, no one has much
idea. But they know they are there
in July and well into late August.
Usually the first run lasts about two
weeks, when any kind of dinky fish
ing craft with an engine and an
angler who knows anything at all
about marlin fishing can tie into
spear bill. Then their numbers
lessen.
They probably spread around
along the lengthy ridge which runs
down to Cape Hatteras and up as far
as New York Harbor. We know
there are a good many marlin off
Long Island in midsummer. But we
also know there aren't anywhere
near so many off the Jersey and New
York coasts as there are around the
Ocean City marlin grounds. The
second run can come any time early
IN August. Perhaps the moon has
something to do with it, or those
loony fishing tables, which may not
be so loony, after all. ANYHOW.
marlin fishing drops off late in July
and comes again in August. Not as
good as the first run, but good
enough.
In between, if you can't get them

Quarter Light, you can, if you have

good engines and a radio. move far

lanes, so or 10 miles straight east of
Ocean City. There you'll almost GER
tainly tie into marlin. And maybe
II you are lucky-you1l get into big
tuna. Yes. they are out there also.
Paul Townsend told me he hit into
a school of tuna just outside the
steamer lane, IS miles off shore, that
tied his medium tackle into knots,
broke some of it and went away.
The fish, which might have weighed
800 pounds or more, hardly knew
they were hooked. But Paul did
land a few of what they call school"

pounds, with all the pull of a fair

By Walter McCalIum.

They're getting ready to open up
another marlin mine over at Ocean
City, Md. It's the same old mine
out there about 20 miles offshore
and around Is miles south of the
town on SinepuXent Bay, where the
spear-beaked battlers of the ocean
are bringing more prosperity and
more publicity to Ocean City than
old Uncle Jake ever thought would
be possible, even after they built
the biggest hotel away up at the
north end of the boardwalk.
Big-game fishing happens to be
one of Americas fastest-growing
sports-or pastimes, or excuses for
lying or whatever you want to call
it. But they don't have to tell fab
relations about the marlin mine off
Ocean City. Not when they pump
out more than a thousand of those
great game fish of the ocean, as they
did last year. And this year, with
the peak of the season coming up
within few days, all Eastern Mary
land and a large and hefty sector
of the sport fishermen of the East
are combing over saltwater tackle,
breaking new lines on big reels,
rigging outriggers and going over
all items Of fishing equipment
against the day when the trim
cruisers start trailing home from
the Jackspot flying two, three, four
or more marlin flags.
If it hasn't already gotten you
down, it will, provided you are a
dyed-in- the wool fisherman. No an
gler worthy of the name who can
possibly afford to horn into a mar
lin party long can pass up the un-
equaled white marlin fishing off
ocean City.
Five years ago Ocean City was an
other sleepy, little seaside town,
slumbering for eight months of the
year, waking into feverish action
during June, July, August and part
of September, with just $3.50 fishing
and a pretty good bathing beach.
But that was before Paul and Jack
Townsend, after hearing some old
time fishermen tell of marlin out
there in the blue water, started do
ing some research work Of their
own. That was back in 1884. That
Evening star., 1939-07-09

year they landed, from an awkward
handling schooner they owned at the
time, q few marlin. The next year
they landed more and the next year
lot more.
Had Great Season.
But Ocean City came into it's own
last year. Fishermen from Wash
ington, Florida, Montauk and other
Eastern spots, attracted by the un-
precedented marlin fishing off the
Maryland port, began to try it. They
left singing the praises of that
stretch of ocean between Ocean City
and Chincoteague, Va, with the
Jackspot the hot spot of it all. They
also left with sore muscles and the
memory of we'll over thousand
glorious scraps with fighting marlin.
No one knows accurately how
many marlin were boated last sum-
mer at Ocean City. The nearest
figure that can be reached is that
more than thousand either were
killed or were released after long
drawn-out scrap, testing fisherman
and tackle to the limit.
But there isn't any doubt that
Ocean City and it's unequaled mar
lin fishing today is the hottest salt
walter angling spot in the United
States. 1t is the one spot in this
country where you can't miss on
marlin. Sure, Cuba is good in the
spring. Lower Mexico is fine, and
Southern California is good. But
there isn't e. place in this country
which has the record for marlin
that Ocean City rolled up last sum-
mer. I wouldn't know how many
marlin were landed off Miami last
winter, where it isn't unusual for
100 fishing boats of all descriptions
to comb the waters of the Gulf
Stream for sailfish and marlin any
given day.
But marlin around Miami is an
event. They may land three or four
a week-if that many. And it
wasn't unusual at Ocean City last
summer land won't be this sum-
mer) for boat to have half dozen
of these spindle-beaked battlers
hooked in a single day. OF course,
they don't land that many, always.
The marlin happens to be scrappy

ing lie), it isn't unusual to see six
or more boats fighting marlin at
one time Or to see a dozen marlin
in the air at once, either fighting
the hook or just jumping.
And the best of 1t Is, from the
viewpoint of the Washington angler,
that it's smack on the doorstep of
the Capital-almost literally. Even
slow automobile driver can make
Ocean City in six hours, with time
out for the ferry trip from Annapolis
Marlin are like any other fish
They follow the feed. Offshore from
the eastern shores of Maryland and
Virginia runs hump in the ocean
floor, a raised spot where the water
shoals. On these ridges" small fish
feed; the squid, menhaden. mackerel
and other favorite delicacies of the
marlin. And right there, let me set
you right.
The marlin, like the sailfsh, isn't
