We wonder what these workmen, who built Stratford Shoal Lighthouse in 1875, would think about the lighthouse having been abandoned by the government, then left to the elements for many years, and then being offered for free to a qualified applicant just so it could be fixed up again like they originally built it. We believe that most, if not all, of these men would probably think that our government has gone amuck. (Lighthouse Digest archives.) Back to the edition of: Jul/Aug 2014
