"Frisco"
"Serene, indifferent of Fate, Thou sittest at the Western Gate; Upon thy heights so lately won, Still slant the banners of the sun; Thou seest the white seas strike their tents, O Warder of two Continents! And scornful of the peace that flies, Thy angry winds and sullen skies, Thou drawest all things, small and great, To Thee, beside the Western Gate."

On Wednesday, 12th July 1899, I signed on before the mast on the four-mast barque Royalshire of Glasgow, which had just arrived in Frisco from Japan, and was busy unloading the first cargo of Japanese coal that had ever left the country.

Whilst fighting in the late Boer War, I wondered if I would meet Mac, Don, or Loring, but our courses did not cross; perhaps in the future - who knows - but some day again I may cross the trail of an old shipmate, and have a yarn about the good old days on the gallant but ill-fated Royalshire.
