Capt. Herbert Parkin Makes Model Menhaden Boat, April 30, 1925

Makes Boat Model

A well-executed model of the big menhaden boat the Parkin was on exhibition Monday in the C.D. Jones grocery store. The model, about three feet in length, is correct in every detail and is a very pretty boat. It was made by Captain Herbert Parkin. The model was presented to Mr. W.B. Blades and is now in New Bern.
