Framed memorial to Harry Neilson
Northeast Harbor Fleet
Description:
Framed memorial to Harry Neilson with a poem by John Masefield (which seems to be an adaptation of I Am Standing Upon The Seashore by Henry Van Dyke) Text reads: HARRY R. NEILSON, JR.

She is an object of beauty and strength and I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come down to mingle with each other. Then someone at my side says, "There! She is gone." Gone where? Gone from my sight - that is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side, and just as able to bear her load of living freight to the place of destination. Her diminished size is in me, not in her; and just at the moment when someone at my side says, "There! She's gone," there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout, "There she comes!" [show more]
