text_original: On the south side of the inain street the narrow courts rose steep and confined, each with its flight of steps ; beyond the bay, under Coburn Nab, they were building ships, — always one siiip at least on the stocks ; perhaps a whaler, perhaps a collier, perhaps no more than a fishing smack or a coble ; but all day long the cheerful hammer rang, and the ship  Wrights went in and out among the fisher folk.
