"September 9, 1878 - Fine day with a nice breeze. The "Cimbria" is getting ready to leave Southwest Harbor where she has rode at her anchors 4 months and 12 days. Probably she will never enter it again." "At a quarter to 4 o'clock the big gun flashes from her bows, the anchor is away - 3 cheers are given. She turns and steams slowly out of the Eastern Way." - Day Book of Elizabeth Cook (Carroll) Lawler - In the collection of Robert Lindsay Smallidge, Jr.
