Abstract
In 2019, in The Dutra Group v. Batterton, the United States Supreme Court announced that the special treatment for seamen (“emphatically the wards of the admiralty”) created by Justice Story in Harden v. Gordon (1823) is now all but dead. Academic commentary has described the announcement as “a substantial change for admiralty law.” The event seems an appropriate occasion to revisit the seminal Harden v. Gordon case and the people involved in it before it vanishes completely from view.
