DR. GEORGE SHORKLEY OF CAMDEN.
UP where the midnight sun streams thru the Northern night; Fighting the weary miles as only Men could fight, He was one of the band, facing the North, alone, Seeking the heart of things, bunting the great unknown. Never a finer quest have men of daring dared; Never were greater risks than those that Shorkley shared, Five long years he gave, strength of body and soul— Leagues to the North each time; each time nearer the pole. Soldier and surgeon he; man of the land and the sea Followed the flag that waved for Cuba's liberty; And now in a seaport town takes up his work again Doing his daily round; soothing the bed of pain.
