EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Sabbath Lesson: A Clergyman Admonishes a Young Boy for 'Fishing' on the Riverbank, 1895" 2. Description: This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment between a stern clergyman and a young, mischievous boy, set against the backdrop of a serene riverbank scene. The year is 1895, and the Sabbath - a day of rest and religious observance - is in full swing. 3. The clergyman, dressed in his formal robes, approaches the young boy, who sits calmly with a jar and a length of string in his hands. The boy, with a sly smile, insists that he is not fishing but rather "teachin this ere worm ter swim." 4. The clergyman, with a stern expression, admonishes the boy for his actions, reminding him that it is "wicked to fish on the Sabbath." The boy, quick-witted and unrepentant, offers an excuse, insisting that he is merely giving the worm a swimming lesson. 5. The scene is a snapshot of a time when religious observance held a significant place in society, and the role of the clergy was to uphold moral values and enforce religious rules. The photograph also highlights the importance of nature and the simple pleasures of childhood, even on a day of rest. 6. The image is a historical record of a time long past, and it invites viewers to reflect on the role of religion, morality, and childhood in society. The boy's sharp, fast reply to the clergyman's admonishment adds a layer of complexity to the scene, revealing the young boy's resourcefulness and determination to enjoy the simple pleasures of nature, even on the Sabbath. 7. The photograph is a testament to the rich history of religious observance and the enduring bond between nature, childhood, and the human spirit. It is a reminder that even in the face of authority, the human spirit finds a way to explore, learn, and grow.
