TO sea.
Sweet Childhood
MY father was stevedore boss.
The ships there TO load would
always lay q long time. 80 the
crew would be paid off. 1t WAS up
to the longshoremen to shake out
and take in the sails after a rain,
and so on.
MY dad had me in the hold
slowing lumber-not much, but at
least some-when ! was IL years
old.
And when there were sails TO
be dried, or to be furled. dad would
turn me over TO the mate and he'd
take me aloft to help him with the
royals. which were light even
though high. while the longshore-
men listed the others.
"Of course grew up In a dory.
I can't remember when one of my
brothers and I didn't have to row
out to our nets and get there by
daylight. Usually we'd get back
for breakfast sometime In the
afternoon.
"Bluenosers have . reputa-
tion for being tough guys
by Eolly, you had tn he or
else," he says with = grin.
He tells how his grandparents
walked rs miles from their home
to Halifax, carrying their shoes
until they reached the city limits.
and reversing the process going
home again.
Those were the days of non
streamlined families. Garrison's
mother had II children of her own,
then started adopting them until
she had total of II.
Which again makes us think of
his grandmother. When she died
at the age of 90, she left eight
children. So grandchildren, i26
great-grandchildren, and one great
great-grandchild.
Garrison has q mariners
ghost story - which makes
good EARNING, at least.
Two Halifax fishermen were in
their dory on the Bank. Suddenly.
movement in the water some
distance away caught their atten-
ton.
While they watched with jaws
sjar, a square-rigged vessel rose
out of the sea. All sails were set.
Subsequent investigation. Gar
rison says. disclosed the ship was
loaded with salt when she foun-
dered in squall. When the salt
dissolved, up she came.
Well, that's what he says-it's
his yarn. and he's stuck with 1t.
