Excerpt from Trinity Bells a Tale of Old New York
The only other living member of Catharine's home was her brother Paul; and when she spoke of Paul it was always with a beautififl enthusiasm. She delighted in telling of the honors he had won at Trinity School, and of her mother's great wish that he should go to Columbia College, and afterward to Mr. Hamilton's otfice that he might learn to be come a great lawyer. But no, Catharine would add, with a bright impetuosity; Paul will not be a lawyer. Paul will go to sea. If you only saw him walk about a ship you would instantly understand that. And, to be sure, if I was a boy I also would be a sailor. My father says 'we all have the salt drop in us.' Even my Uncle Jacob Van Clyfie, who is a tanner, dreams of the sea, and reads of the sea.
