But on June 28, 1865, the obvious ironies, much like Davis' solace, meant nothing to the men gathered off this Arctic shore. For the whalemen and the owners of the destroyed ships, the consequences were tragic. For Waddell and his crew, oddly enough, heroism of a sort would soon be called...

He later trashed the boat. The car crash last Thursday at about 2:45 a.m. was the most bizarre incident yet. Capitol police officers, who suspected that Kennedy, 38, was drunk, alleged he was given special treatment: a superior told them not to give a sobriety test but to take Kennedy home.
