First sentence: The fishing smack is no more—she has joined the vanished fleet of brigs, topsail schooners, brigantines, ketches, luggers and other sailing craft which, not so long ago, made many a small harbour a thriving place and added a picturesqueness to a seascape that no power-driven vessel can hope to rival.
