It comprises all the seaward portion of the extremity of Cape Ann, with its islands, and that part of Gloucester long known as Sandy Bay, which opens to the sea on the north-east.
Since the first settlement of the country, Sandy Bay, in common with Gloucester, has been associated with the enterprise of the fisheries ; and of rearing its sons for the manly exer- cise of a nautical life ; thereby render- ing them serviceable to their country abroad, and fit companions for its in- telligent and ro...sy-cheeked damsels at home.
There are two pleasant villages in the town ; Sandy Bay and Pigeon Cove, about a mile apart, the inhabi- tants of both of which are largely en- gaged in the cod and mackerel fishery. At Pigeon Cove, are inexhaustible quarries of excellent granite, of a lighter color, and rather harder than that of Quincy. These quarries are so near the sea-shore that vessels can be laden with trifiing expense. This stone, under such circumstances, is of great value to the town. Twenty- five vessels were constantly engaged in freighting this stone in the sum- mer of lS4o.
