Ministers Aboard Ship

1910

A minister aboard ship has always been taken as a "Jonah sign" by seamen. In recent years, however, this superstition has been modified to a certain extent. A young minister, the seamen believe, will not bring as much of a "Jonah" with him as an old one.


Fate

The feet of Fate are tender, for she sets her steps not on the ground, but on the heads of men. - Homer.
