famous artist winslow homer and famous writer rudyard kipling his early art work focused on the sea with paintings and drawings of boats around 1890 he traveled to paris to study at the academie julian upon his return to the united states he began to exhibit his art and teach in both philadelphia and new york  william robinson to us all was first and last a painter he had few hobbies and did not seem to need any he painted the beauty of the new england countryside its harbors and vessels with devotion and knowledge accumulated through long years of study and acquaintance   robinson s biographer for the salmagundi club frederick lester sexton 1945 old lyme during the first two decades of the 20th century the village of old lyme connecticut was the setting for one of the largest and most significant art colonies in america centered in the boardinghouse of miss florence griswold 18501937 the colony attracted many leading artists henry ward ranger childe hassam and willard metcalf among them who were in the vanguard of the tonalist and impressionist movements drawn to old lyme by its natural beauty they discovered an old new england setting that was as one observer noted expressive of the quiet dignity of other days here was a country retreat where as metcalf put it every day is so in line with work interacting with each other and with the community the artists of the colony produced an impressive body of work which achieved renown in its day and still calls attention to the enduring and fragile qualities of the rural new england landscape old lyme recreated many of the features found abroad and was for a time identified in the popular press as the american barbizon or the american giverny a stay at the griswold house provided an artist with affordable lodgings good food and company the availability of studio space and varied subject matter for pleinair painting but old lyme offered something more a retreat from the hurried pace of the city to a town that time had largely forgotten from jeffery anders in 1905 william s robinson traveled from new york to the village of old lyme connecticut to stay at the boardinghouse of florence griswold 18501937 he worked in a studio near the brook that flows in the corner of the property in 1921 robinson moved into the boardinghouse and established a fulltime studio on the grounds during this same year the new building for the lyme art association designed by charles platt opened and robinson became a charter member years later he was elected their president once sequestered in old lyme his paintings revel in the surrounding landscape according to his salmagundi club biographer his best pictures are not always of sailing vessels but more often of connecticut hillsides and pasture lands especially about old lyme where he lived for thirtyone years in the old griswold house working in a studio across the brook from the lyme art association gallery robinson was one of the few people with miss florence when she died in the house in 1937 shortly thereafter the boardinghouse was shut down and all of her belongings sold in a public auction on the front lawn of the house robinson then moved to biloxi mississippi where he continued to create impressionistic landscapes instead of stoic new england homesteads and blossoming mountain laurel however he painted charming images of shrimp

the sun herald july 27 2014 p f6 this flashback story reflects a time when a man s honor and integrity were considered his most precious assets and it was more or less expected that he protect those assets in a certain way the story involves a newspaper controversy between the biloxi herald founded in 1884 and a shortlived newspaper called the biloxi review the controversy ended in manslaughter the weekly biloxi review made its debut on aug 1 1896 under the editorship of hf evans from the beginning the review practiced what was called cutthroat competition by launching attacks against the herald and biloxi s board of aldermen the aldermen filed a libel lawsuit against the review in september 1896 and won the review replaced evans with joules soule who continued evans same policies in october 1896 capt jh miller pictured here in 1902 of the tupelo journal became the biloxi herald s new editor miller had a reputation throughout the state as a man of great integrity about then the herald s owner gw wilkes borrowed 500 from the bank of biloxi for new office equipment he offered his own property and the signatures of seafood pioneers l lopez and whk dukate as securities this opened a floodgate of insinuations by soule of financial wrongdoing against the biloxi herald and particularly upon miller his defamation and scurrilous attacks on miller was such that the gulf coast progress newspaper of bay st louis stated that no honorable or brave man could wear the stigma of soule s denunciation and hold his head up among gentlemen review issues teemed with vicious attacks on miller finally miller avenged himself by firing a mortal shot at soule in downtown biloxi on dec 3 1896 during his september 1897 trial for manslaughter witnesses from along the coast and throughout

known to the history of biloxi occurred sometime during the day yesterday and it had the effect when discovered of stirring each and every one of our citizens up to a state of frenzy its nature character and surroundings was just such as to do this and no one individually or collectively would be expected to contain or restrain themselves under the circumstances a bright beautiful pure young girl with all alluring before her in life ruthlessly cut down by the hand of a fiend who sought and did destroy more than life itself and her poor tender body left in the woods to be discovered by her family and friends tells a tale that is hard to believe but which is nevertheless true and overwhelming the victim of the fearful outrage was little christina winterstein a lovely young girl about thirteen years of age who was a pupil of the public school she came into the city yesterday morning to attend the practices for the closing exercises she left the city about 12 o clock on her way home and the last seen of her was when she left her brother s house about 1230 when not returning about 2 o clock her people became uneasy about her and instituted inquiry they came to mr collins house looking for her having found her hat in the road coming down mr collins then started out to find the girl and after a brief search he found blood in the road which gave him and young charley foretich who accompanined him a clue to follow and they found the body of the child about a hundred yards from the road and about midway from where she was last seen and from her home there was evidences of a struggle on the side of the road near where the fiend first attacked the little victim and there was blood from there to where her body was found her remains were found at 5 pm there were marks on her face where she had apparantly struck with a man s fist another mark on her breast and the top of her head bore the mark of a blunt instrument of some sort her scalp being laid open and her skull fractured the shock she sustained from the last injury would have been sufficient under the circumstances to have caused death dr e r bragg was summoned as soon as the child s remains were found and after a close examination he declared that she had been outraged after death had come to her relief the authorities were promptly notified and a preliminary examption began but the investigation will not be completed before some time today in the meantime the tender remains of the girl were turned over to her family to be prepared for burial   from the biloxi daily herald june 3 1900 p 1  reward

special event occurred in the life of antoine bellande it concerned a ship mutiny ernest desporte jr told me this tale when i was a teenager ernest desporte jr 18881977 was a native of biloxi and lifelong resident he had a remarkable memory and enjoyed telling stories of biloxi s early history he also was a writer of local history and genealogy sometimes using the nom de plume old timer when i met mr desporte about 1960 he was an elderly septuagenarian gentleman and of keen wit his father ernest desporte sr 18531931 had been a bar pilot and harbor master at ship island at the turn of the twentieth century captains bellande and desporte served together as fellow pilots guiding blue water barks brigs schooners and steamers across the ship island bar to safe anchorage at ship island harbor after 1902 they would sail these large vessels seeking mississippi longleaf pine for the world export market into the new harbor at gulfport the result of my meeting with ernest desporte was new knowledge about the life of antoine bellande the most intriguing information was the reference to a mutiny desporte wrote the following for me  when gulfport became a port about 1898 captain bellande was one of the pilots piloting vessels through the gulfport channel into the harbor at gulfport on one occasion he piloted a vessel from gulfport harbor to the open gulf of mexico this vessel was bound for england but the crew mutinied on the high seas the crew was captured and tried in england as captain bellande was the last man to see the captain and crew he was a witness in the trial of the crew in the royal court of england  without a date for the alleged mutiny i was never able to corroborate the tale of captain desporte in the fall of 1989 i was in the history and genealogy section of the biloxi public library waiting to talk to murella powell archivist and historian she was on the telephone and i heard her speak to someone of the mutiny at ship island immediately i thought of the account of desporte when she became available i related my story and she shared her very interesting knowledge of the subject she had been contacted by a canadian novelist bruce wishart who was writing a book about an episode in maritime history known as the veronica mutiny since the event commenced at ship island he needed background data on the mississippi gulf coast to write his novel murella was doing basic research for him especially concerning ship island i contacted bruce wishart at his residence in brandon manitoba from him i learned the details of the mutiny and with my knowledge of captain bellande incorporated these facts into my rendering of the story with this background knowledge i now present the reader the veronica mutiny at a time when most men his age had long retired or passed on captain antoine bellande and inspector duckworth of scotland yard england were boarding an l n train on april 15 1903 at biloxi their destination was liverpool england via new york where they would board the steamer irenia the catalyst for this adventure had been the threemasted barque veronica out of st john new brunswick the veronica had sailed into gulf waters south of ship island in august of 1902 captain bellande had come to mississippi from marseille france in 1851 at the age of twentytwo years his family in france had been caulkers in a local shipyard and the ways of the sea were natural to this young french immigrant he had learned well the waters of the gulf of mexico while navigating his trading schooner the  john randolph  to cuba for sugar and tobacco occasionally he would transport longleaf pine to galveston and new orleans his maritime lore was so widely acclaimed that during the civil war admiral david farragut utilized his services for the union navy his civil war records indicate he was an acting ensign and pilot one of only two in the entire navy antoine bellande served the union well he was the pilot aboard the  uss monongahela  at the battle of mobile bay in august 1864 when it valiantly rammed the  css tennessee  after the war bellande settled at back bay d iberville and began a family with marie harvey 18401894 they moved to 254 reynoir street about 1882 the year he became a ship island bar pilot  veronica trial at liverpool assizes liverpool england may 12 1903  lr  inspector duckworth moses thomas antoine v bellande and sgt ford  as captain bellande rode the pilot boat out to meet the incoming  veronica  south of the ship island bar that late summer day in 1902 i can only speculate on his state of mind in 1894 his wife had died at biloxi he married an ocean springs lady mary catchot 18601931 in 1896 she was the daughter of antonio catchot 18261885 a spanish immigrant from the balearic island of menorca and elizabeth hoffen 18381916 a german immigrant from bremen antoine and mary catchot bellande resided on jackson avenue in ocean springs across from the st alphonsus church where a son edward antoine 18971976 was born in 1897 to the newly weds he was sixtyseven years of age and she thirtyseven at the time of edward s delivery when captain bellande boarded the  veronica  he met captain alexander shaw the master of the 1167 ton vessel which was loaded during september with mississippi lumber for montevideo uruguay the heavily laden vessel waited for a high tide and was towed across the ship island bar on october 11 1902 into the waters of the gulf of mexico while at sea the four german crewmen of the veronica became upset with their anglosaxon shipmates while off the northeast coast of brazil they murdered captain shaw and the crew and set the ship afire in december 1902 the mutineers landed on the small island of tuotoia which forms a part of the bar at the mouth of the rio parnaiba in northeastern brazil they were rescued by the ss brunswick in midjanuary 1903 the german seamen made a fatal mistake by bringing the ship s cook moses thomas a negro with them on the way to england thomas related the tale of horror aboard the veronica to captain browne after the brunswick reached liverpool in late january three of the alleged murderers were incarcerated until the trial which commenced on may 12 1903 at the liverpool assizes the fourth seaman a youth was given mercy since antoine bellande was the last person to see the crew of the veronica alive at ship island he was called to testify at the trial in liverpool before his departure for england with inspector duckworth who had been sent to biloxi by scotland yard to investigate the local scene an article of interest was printed in  the biloxi daily herald  on april 15 1903  the sailor boys are very anxious concerning the visit of pilot antoine bellande to liverpool for they say he has never served time in the french army and if the frog eaters in the old world hear of his being in europe they fear in some manner they will get possession of him and force him to mark time and carry a gun to the great loss of the sailor craft of these waters it is said that john brasellman of dejean mitchell s and john lyons boarding officer at ship island will also be induced to go to england on the same errand  the sworn testimony of captain antoine bellande taken from  the trial of gustav rau otto monsson and willem smith the veronica trial  by professor gw keeton and john cameron went as follows  antoine bellande sworn examined by mr fe smith   i am a port pilot at ship island and biloxi and i live at ocean springs four miles from biloxi i believe the veronica arrived at ship island in ballast last august

first or second mates names i knew the men well but not their names  tell me whether either or any or none of these men in the dock were on board then  the middle one monsson was on board when i was in quarantine i don t know the others i noticed nothing in particular going on on board the vessel when i was there captain shaw could not hear very well he was a little deaf  do you remember going on board the  veronica  to take her out  yes that was in october at that time her crew consisted of twelve all toldthere was captain shaw the first mate and the second mate i cannot remember the names of the other members of the crew as there were so many vessels going about there was a man named moses thomashe was the cook  will you look at that paper and tell us whether you saw any of those signatures made  yes monsson i saw thomas the cook signing the captain of the tugboat was with me and captain shaw  on what sort of terms seemed the officers to be with the crew  they seemed to be all very well all satisfied i never heard anything   crossexamined by mr maxwell for rau  your only duty on board was to take the ship out to sea  yes  you had nothing to do with the crew yourself  no

the name of the first mate but you say he was a young man what was his heighttall or short  he was a young man with a moustache about the same height as merather short i think  can you tell me anything about the course the veronica would take in order to get to monte video leaving ship islandwould she go due east  about ese  how far east would she go before she turned down south  she would have to go to the strait of florida  would she have to go farther east after she went through the strait  she would go through the strait and keep east  can you tell whereabouts that part of the ocean called the doldrums is  no  can you tell whether vessels get into a part of the ocean where there are contrary winds and calms sometimes  it happens at sea that there are calms and so on  is there a part of the ocean in which they are more frequent than other parts  i do not know  what is the time of a voyage from ship island to monte video  between 60 and 70 days  did you not say when you gave your evidence before that the length of the voyage for a sailing ship is from 43 to 80 days  from monte video yes it is longer from ship island to monte video  you would agree that it would not as a rule take more than 70 days  from 60 to 70 days although with a fair wind it might be shorter  you spoke also as to the provisions which were taken on board this boat do you know anything about that  not very well they took provisions but i cannot say how much  can you tell me would a captain as a rule take about 60 or 70 days provisions with him for this voyage  generally it is a rule to take double the provisions to come back with  would he not be able to get fresh provisions at monte video  he would get meat and flour but would buy nothing else because it is too dear   reexamined by mr fe smith did you notice while you were on board the vessel what the name of the firm was that was supplying the provisions for the  veronica   yes the dejean mitchell company they are a good firm

canning company were drowned   in 1895 charles dyer who wrote  along the gulf  1895 visited back bay and met with charles patten 18351922 the manager of the biloxi canning company at that time mr patten related the following    the biloxi canning company was started in 1881 and from a small beginning the plant has been gradually built up until at the present time it occupies a space of 100 feet by 500 feet running from the street to the end of the wharf where vessels land they employ during the busy season about 350 hands and their goods are shipped to all parts of this country and europe england is one of their best customers and indeed it would seem so for on the day that our party visited the cannery a shipment of 525 cases of canned shrimp was sent to a london firm this company as a matter of course cans oysters and shrimp and they also ship raw oysters away in bulk    in addition to this they have made quite a specialty of canning figs although it cannot be said that canned figs have been thoroughly introduced through the north east and west yet they are constantly in receipt of orders for this delicate table luxury for several years past the pullman palace car company have been ordering thousands of cases of figs from this company these are specially put up in small cans each containing seven figs or one portion and have met with a great sale upon the cars of the above named corporations this has also proved to be good advertisement for the biloxi canning company as they have received hundreds of individual orders for one or two cases of these goods from people who had seen them for the first time on the pullman cars   the ordinary method of putting them up however is in cans which contain twentysix ounces of fruit and syrup which will sell for 25 cents per can at retail they are also put up in half cans regarding the shrimp which are put up in cans two dozen of which go to the case the biloxi canning company has made a departure in the line of packing it is a wellknown fact that if the shrimp touches the tin of the can it immediately loses its bright red color and becomes black and unsightly to obviate this the other companies use a muslin bag in which the shrimp are placed before being packed now instead of this muslin bag in which according to mr patten the shrimp are liable to get broken up slightly in filling the bag the biloxi canning company have substituted a wooden veneer lining which while it completely prevents the shrimp from touching the tin at the same time absorbs what little moisture there is in them when they are packed and renders them perfectly dry and palatable as they are intended to be when placed upon the table   all of the canned goods of this company are put up under a distinctive mark of their own called the cotton bale brand which is favorably known wherever the goods have been seen   the present officers of the company are wa gordon president charles e theobald vicepresident cf

joullian expressed his feelings about the cannery      i have repeatedly requested mr redding to take charge of the plant but was unable to induce him to do so the charter of the biloxi canning company has expired and there does not seem to do anything else but place the company s business in liquidation and sell all the assets for the best price to be obtained on behalf of those concerned as their interest may appear i have no desire to give my time to the operation of the plant and i have no desire to continue my interest in the same therefore i see no reason for renewing the charter my experience with oyster canning factories is none can be operated profitably as a corporation and without owning necessary fleet to supply the raw material another fact is canneries on the back bay cannot now be operated in competition successfully with other canneries located to better advantage   joullian and redding wanted gordon to bid on the assets of the entire operation in august 1908
