 for the Portuguese fishermen to drop their own and adopt 

 English names while on board of the vessels. 



Azorean Portuguese fishermen.

 at the building of John Pew & Sons. A large number of Azo- 

 reans are settled in Gloucester ; they are good fishermen, and 

 in some cases fishing schooners are commanded and manned 

 exclusively by natives of the Azores. Gloucester, Mass., 1882.
