Of these 184 vessels owned in Gloucester 32 years ago, although several 

 are doubtless still in existence, only one, the Lucy Ann, is still owned here. 

 The Lucy Ann is 46.54 tons, new measurement, was built in Essex in 1849, 

 and is owned by Mr. Samuel Haskell. 



Very many of the readers of this volume will peruse the above list with 

 pleasure, as the recalling of the names of these vessels will awaken many 

 pleasing reminiscences when some of them were the "crack" vessels of their 

 day, and the trips they made and the associations connected therewith, will 

 recall the past with all its wealth of associations connected with the fisheries 

 of that period.
