Description
In 1894, Shoodlue came to Dundee on Captain Milne’s whaling ship. During his visit, he went to the offices of the Dundee Advertiser, where he “apparently had made up his mind to betray no signs of emotion or to do anything compromising to his dignity.” He was soon enthralled by the machines in the printing room, however, examining the machines with interest and expressing how the pages were passing before him “like a flight of geese.”
