Things fHappenedoMe 0nA Rdtat Sea

AS the raft was dashed
along 1t touched and passed
over trees and over the tops
of what once had. been hills.
Once it grounded for a mo-
ment on the top of a partic-
ularly high hill before it was
washed on. And wherever
we touched, even though only
momentarily, the raft took on
new passengers.
Insects of thousand kinds
dropped from the topmost
twigs of protruding vegeta.
tion and clung to the raft,
crawling to safety. Frogs and
toads leaped up from the
water and landed heavily on
my craft. They crept close
to me-the frogs, toads and
insects-they were unafraid
of me; seemingly they had
confidence in me or were COM
forted by my presence.
Flying insects dashed
against the lark" and they
clung there. Mosquitoes clung
to me. Water bugs from the
streams of the mainland
swan aboard. A long, slip
perry but harmless water
snake climbed over the side
and looked at me inquiringly.
After a long examination it
squirmed close to my body as
if satisfied / would protect it.
Birds came, too. A gull,
frightened by the high wind,
dropped out of the air beside
me. A fiuttering robin brushed
against me aud clung to my
soaked clothing. I took it in
my hand and it did not at
tempt to fly away, but snug
gled close, quivering..
Up from the bank of the
thick palmetto came nevis,
bats, adders and blind worms;
crabs and owlets sought my
protection on the raft from
the rage of the waters. And
each one OF these strange
things found some way to
plead with me to save them
some by chirps, some by gut
tural grunts, others by the
look in their eyes.

roar which shook the fish house.
Only a moment hesitated, then I

But, compared to this, that sound had

the court further recognized was the
