CAPT. PETERSON IS A DADDY.
“Heave out that nursing bottle. Ketch that pinning
blanket and tie up the baby carriage. Come on, hurry for
we have the colic.”
“Aw, whatyougi venus ? This ain’t no nursery this is
the Seward dock.”
This was the conversation which occurred about five
o’clock vesterdav afternoon at the Seward dock when Capt
* +
John E. Peterson, of the Anna \V. came in port towing the
Barge Lawrence. * V.#gf|fc'
Capt. Peterson is the proud daddy of a baby girl, born
at Anchorage last week, and as such has been learning the
baby lingo and baby talk and became confused in issuing
orders but was forgiven by the dock fellahs.
Capt. A1 Morrison, of the bar; ge, said that Capt. Pet*
erson would repeatedly appear on the deck of the Anna W.
and yell back to the barge saying: "Do you think the babe
will know mewhen I get back to Anchorage?" and other
such stuff. aM*
