who had been to grade school and
to the Boy Scout camp with US,

the spell of it. He had never
been to the islands, but had seen
them many times driving along
the coast road-the distant hay
lines of green, with occasionally
the single pine trees standing
out in miniature outline in the
clear evening light. All his life he
had wanted to go out to them. He
had started on trips several times,
had gotten up parties to charter
boats; but somehow the trips had
never come off. And then he
had moved north to live, had TAX

it seemed unlikely that he would
ever return to the coast. He told
me that the islands had become
for him a sort of legend. a per-
sistent dream; a connection with
his old life in the South. and with
youth, and with friends from
whom time had parted him. And
he thought perhaps il was bet

islands to be anything that mem
