Edenton Bay Packing Company Ad<br />
By: Wanda Lassiter, Curator, Museum of the <strong>Albemarle</strong><br />
The Museum of the <strong>Albemarle</strong> has in its collection several advertisements for local businesses. One such<br />
ad from The Edenton Bay Packing Company featured a recipe for Golden Hickory Smoke Herring. Since<br />
this is the time of year when “dogwood blooms and herring run,” we thought the recipe might interest<br />
readers. The recipe states, “Cut heads and tails off. Cover fish well with boiling water and boil for five<br />
minutes. Pour this water off and cover again with boiling water for twelve to fifteen minutes. During this<br />
process of boiling, you will notice that the skin will burst on the fish and can be easily removed, together<br />
with back fin, which should be done, but do not attempt to remove skin until after boiling period.”<br />
“After all the skin and fins have been removed, fry in bacon fat to a golden brown. Another delicious<br />
way of browning these fish, after the boiling and skinning process, is to place a strip of bacon in a<br />
shallow flat pan or biscuit pan, then place fish on top of same, then a strip of bacon on fish.<br />
Place in a hot oven and bake from ten to twelve minutes.”<br />
The ad continues to state that the fish from Edenton Bay Packing Company “are carefully selected and<br />
expertly cured, and every fish [is] guaranteed.”<br />
To learn more about herring in northeastern North Carolina, please read Mr. Frank Stephenson’s book<br />
“Herring Fishermen: Images of an Eastern North Carolina Tradition.” This book is sold in the Museum<br />
Gift Shop. For additional information on the different species of herring in North Carolina, please visit<br />

Overcome All<br />
By : Ron Ben-Dov<br />
Falling like the mist of the season<br />
Drizzling upon our bare heads<br />
Like water in your garden<br />
The life giving rain<br />
Pouring on my head in sheets<br />
Soaking me to the bone<br />
God’s blessings shower me<br />
Soak in and sustain my life<br />
My soul runneth over<br />
With the many blessings of my life<br />
I have overcome strife<br />
I have overcome despair<br />
I have overcome disease<br />
With God and His blessings<br />
I can overcome all<br />
