Blm Water Chapter 1T hsun sarisin oer th hills, an th breeze blows down th Bay, An th towboats got our hawser, for we re outwardbound to-day. So break away the anchor to a chanteys rousin sound. An fare-ye-well, my sweetheart, for we are outwardbound. Our barques a Bluenose clipper, an th skippers Bluenose too, Our cooks a Bluenose nigger, an we re most a Bluenose crew. Heave hearty to the chorus, there, as lusty as ye can! For we re outwardbound this mornin on a Nova Scotiaman. Ballad of the Outwardbound THE broad waters of the Bay of Fundy shimmered as a vast steel-blue expanse in the glare of the hot June sun and merged into the azure of the cloudless sky with but a streak of faint mistiness at the horizon. Apparently oblivious of the heat and the exertion, two barefooted boys ran down the dusty Bay Shore road and threw themselves upon a patch of bushshaded grass fringing the highway. The older of the pair, a stocky, sandy-haired youngster endowed with all the aggressive cocksure manner which goes with twelve years of earthly existence, was the first to speak. Gotth pipe, Lem? Yep! replied the younger boy, wiping his face with the sleeve of his blouse. Here sth terbacker. Gimme a knife an Ill cut it up. Lem fished in his pocket and handed over the article called for.
