Thread Name: Lyr Add: Passing of the Chantey (George C. Bugbee)
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: 'The Passing of the Chantey'

Hi, Charley! I found it reprinted in the Philadelphia Inquirer, Feb. 13, 1916, p.6.

Turns out Mystic Seaport Museum owns Bugbee's poetic notebooks, and two of them are online:

Unfortunately, the scan quality is so poor that most of the pages are barely legible.

Somebody should tell 'em.
