Excerpt from Records and Papers of the New London County Historical Society, 1895-1904, Vol. 2 In 1775 (the year of Burke's great speech) Nantucket had 150 vessels, and employed in them men on whaling voyages, who took annually about barrels of oil. These, therefore, were the men who drew forth Burke's encomium. In 1794 the ship Commerce, owned in East Haddam, 177-32 tons, licensed by Samuel Phillips Lord, sailed from New London on a Whaling voyage. In 1795 (april 5) the following notice appeared in the New London Gazette: All persons who wish to be interested in a Whaling Company to be established in this place, are requested to meet at Miner's Tavern at 4 o'clock p. M. On Monday, the 20th inst, to consider on the most proper means to promote said establish ment. Evidently the response to this call was insufficient, as it led to no material result.
