Note: From Rambles about Portsmouth
We all knew Cap Spinney many years, and time and again witnessed fis arrival and departures from the spring market. He was portly in person, upright in posture, of dark skin, long beard and was invariable clad in petticoat trousers and a pea jacket so covered with patches of every color that it was a matter of doubt what was the original - a blue knit cap was drawn close to his head, and red edging and ear pieces turned up around. His attention to this cap gave him the above designated name. He was a man of system and independence, and his routine for business was strictly adhered to. He would leave his home at Eliot at any hour between midnight and day-light, that the tide served, and alone in his canoe proceed to the mouth of the river. When the tide required him to leave before he had done up his sleep, on reaching the fishing ground he would bait his hooks, giving one turn of his line around the tholepins and then another turn around his wrist, compose himself to sleep. When the fish bit, the check at the thole-pin would secure it, and the slight pull at the wrist would notify him to take it in. He would then rebait, redrink, and continue his nap, and in due time he might he seen coming up the river and rowing into the Market Landing to the calls "Have you any fish" mp reply would be made. As soon as his painter was fastened, he would rise his cuddy cover, take out his coconut shell, visit a particular shop near the market, get it filled with "O-be-joy-full" then return to his boat, take his seat, raise his coconut to his mouth and take two or three swigs, resting between each with a smack of his lips - then depositing it safely in the cuddy, he uncovered his fish and give snotive "Now gentlemen, I am ready for business" By the time his fish were sold, his shell would need replenishing, and then with another swig he would push off into the stream, and his boat proceed almost intuitively to his home, Thus year after year through the same routine, until 1832, on the 4th day of July - a day which he regarded as worth a particular observance in is way, his boat struck against Portsmouth bridge, and at the age of 73 he closed his life in the river in which he had almost lived for three score and ten year. He left about fifteen hundred dollars as a results of his labor, and the reputation of a friendly disposition to men and beast, as well as to his coconut shell. His like we have never since looked upon.

Notes for DAVID SPINNEY:
FROM RAMBLES ABOUT PORTSMOUTH
David Spinny died in Eliot Nov. 24th 1862 at the age of 92 years. He was the last of six brothers, who all lived and died old men, after spending years of their lives in canoes, and much of the time three or four miles out of fort constitution, fishing. Mr David Spinney was probably the last survivor of the workmen on the U.S frigate Congress, built here on Badgers Island, 1779. The pay roll of the month of August of that year we have before us. Mr. Spinney's pay was 58 1/2 cents. he was then 28 years old. The highest pay on the roll of eight-nine men is two dollars per day, and but two master-work-men received that sum. The average pay of the whole was about 83 cents.
A remarkable incident marked his old age. Mr. Spinney's hair, after he became advanced in life, for many years had been very white. Within the last few years it all came off, and a new growth of fine silken black hair grew out, covering his head (except a part which had been previously bald) and so continuing until his death, His wife was Mary Mariner, Sister of the well-known market woman, Hannah Mariner.
ix. JEREMIAH SPINNEY, b. September 10, 1780; m. FANNY REMICK, August 21, 1802.
