Abstract
This collection of essays investigate and define events that have been relegated to the margins of history. They use primary sources to create a narrative and cover the tragedy of Ethelbert- Portland's only whale, the burning of the Pomona Hotel and its absence in historical memory, certain events in the life of my great-grandfather Julius Schepps and the tumultuous biography of Chinese-American Arctic explorer Charles Tong Sing.
