And upon this limpid. seemingly LIQUID
surface rested biz cloud shadows OF
deep yelled purple. The pillows were
the cultivated stretches OF the plain.

broken--tiiied soil. When I'm reality the
shadows of clouds moved across the

book. long out OF print. has woven the
legend of the name into n pleasing ro-
nance, which I'm brief is as follows:
When Sir William phips made his
celebrated expedition 20 tho Spanish
main in 1857 under the auspices of the
Duke OF AlbemGrlc. in which he recov-
cred some millions OF sunkcn gold AMI
enriched himself for life. he was &C

his first mate. Edward F;tzvrssal. As
the first expedition was 50 wonderfully
successful. Captain Nix went out on

pardon reached him. however. he took
Il fatal dose OF poison.
He was buried on Green island. and
his sole mourner was an Indian maid
and sibyl who had loved him. She
prophesied that the island would wash
away. and her prediction was fulfilled.
Little by little the earth slid on the
rock into the sea. ana now nothing re-
