east of the town, a field which he was
able to point out from the boat he saw

people, one being distinctly taller than
the rest At first they seemed rather
blurred, then took distinct shapes and
began to play tn national game of hurley
among the bare potato rigs. He called
Suilivan's attention to them, but for some
time his friend could not see them, then
said he could, and they watched together
for a time. Then the sun went In and
