( least, does so with sincere regret,
for it ends one of the most pleasant
seasons which your correspondent
! has ever experienced.
We have enjoyed to the fullest ex-
tent every miItute of our outing.
Three months spent in our little cot
tage home by the bayside, was one
continued round of pleasure. We had
/ great success in capturing the crabs
and fish, also in digging clans. Each
meal contained one or more OF the
seafoods enumerated, and in conse-
uuence we grew fat and lazy. we
simDly slept and dreamed until the
summer was gone before we realiz-
ed it. We were very reluctant to
leave our summer quarters and take
I'D our abode in our winter home.
We know from experience that not
far away, turks the cold winds or
the north; that in few weeks they
will come rushing this way, driving
all things of a summer nature pc
fore them, and giving us instead OF
sunshine, flowers and green Vendure'
a season of bitter cold, snow, slush,
and barren trees, a scene not good
to look upon, and only good to make
our rheumatism more acute and
drive us to seek the comfort of our
heated homes, where sitting by our
freside we long for winter to pass,
that we may soon hear the song OF
the birds again as they welcome the
return of spring. We know then thaC
summer is near at hand, when we
will be able to return once more 10
dear old Slaughter, and take our
usual place on the pier; to help trap
the crabs as they emerge from their
winter quarters.
How we wish that good old sum-
mer time could remain permanently
with us; and, that the cold blasts Oh
winter could be relegated to place
far from us never to return any
more.
