	Woods Hole, the early years
		Woods Hole might have continued to grow as one of the factory towns of Massachusetts but, fortunately for the progress of science and good fortune of its residents (except those who invested their savings in the shares of Pacific Guano Works), the company began to decline and became bankrupt in 1889.
		At the time of his arrival at Woods Hole in 1871, Baird was well known to the scientific circles of this country and abroad as a naturalist, student of classification and distribution of mammals and birds, and as a tireless collector of zoological specimens.
		Woods Hole was selected as the base of the sea coast operations during the first summer and Vinal N. Edwards became the first permanent federal employee of the fisheries service.

	Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
		The town of Woods Hole, Massachusetts, is located on the extreme southwest end of Cape Cod, near Falmouth.
		In 1871, Spenser Baird, the new commissioner of fish and fisheries and assistant-secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, arrived on the scene.
		Woods Hole has consistently been a world leader in developing sophisticated detection equipment that would enable scientists to pry secrets from the vast area covered by the Earth’s oceans.

	Biologist fired for beliefs, suit says - The Boston Globe
		The battle between science and creationism has reached the prestigious Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, where a former researcher is claiming he was fired because he doesn't believe in evolution.
		Abraham, who is seeking $500,000 in compensation for a violation of his civil rights, says in the suit that he lost his job as a postdoctoral researcher in a biology lab shortly after he told his superior that he did not accept evolution as scientific fact.
		Woods Hole officials released a statement saying, "The Institution firmly believes that its actions and those of its employees concerning Dr. Abraham were entirely lawful," and that the center does not discriminate on the basis of religion.
