Abstract:

Johns Hopkins University established a seaside biology laboratory in Beaufort in 1880, long before the U.S. Bureau of Fisheries created their biological station. An account of this work is found in the 20 November, 1880 issue of Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, documenting the existence of the laboratory and the variety of sea life found in Beaufort waters.
