job.
This was nearly SO years ago,
for the agent at Wanchese wharf
had recently come there. He was
Richard Gray of Buxton, and he
told me this week his salary was
$50 a month in those days, which
was considered pretty good for a
young man. In fact he said he saved
up $500 dollars on this job, and he
soon married, finding very pretty
girl living nearby. And he still
stays on at Wanchese wharf, buy
ing fish and supplying Texaco pro-
ducts to the Wanchese territory.
Wanchese wharf, operated by the
Globe Fish Co., was built out at
the end of long point of marsh,
and reached by a long walkway
over which goods were trucked
ashore. Passengers taking the
boats had to walk out over this
trestle. At one time there was a

WANCHEsE A LONG TRIP
hH VICTOR MEEKlNS

WANCHESE A LONG TRIP
Wanchese is six miles by modern
road from Manteo, and the whole
of Roanoke Island is growing more
into single community, for bust
ness purposes at least. But when
l was a small boy nearly so years
ago, a trip to Wanchese was a far
journey. l recall my first journeys
in a cart, down the twisting, sandy
road, when my father went to visit
Uncle Bill, and later to the last
habitation on the south end of the
island where lived his friend, Sci
Midget. Another time he thought
nothing of driving nine miles to
get some improved potato plants
from the late Sam Baum, a most
successful farmer living in Baum
town.
When l had gotten older and big
enough to brave it alone on foot /
walked to Wanchese, and spent
night, and later on, made the en-
tire round trip in a day, traversing
most of the roads on the island.
The main thing to impress me was
the friendliness and good will that
prevailed. My night at Wanchese
was spent at the home of Henry
Simpson, whose good wife, the
late Aldine Meekins, on learning l
was a relative, took great pains to
make lad welcome. The house l
slept in is now owned by Dallas
Tillett.
The long sandy road between
where l lived and Wanchese, some
ten miles of it, discouraged visits,
and welcomed an opportunity to
go by boat, without effort, so one
night in summer about 1914, when
the Methodist revival was on, my
cousin Roland and I went to Wan
cheese wharf in an old sailing skiff.
We walked up the wharf which was
about 900 yards long across the
marsh, and then a mile along a
dusty road through the twilight
heat to church. One didn't mind a
long trip in those days to another
community to attend church serv-
ice. recall at that time there was
much interest in the recent celebra-
ton of the golden wedding of Mr..
and Mrs. John Garrison, one of the
older couples of the community.
Our return home was attended
with effort, for late at night, after
three miles out of Wanchese, the
wind died out and we were obliged
to anchor. When morning came, the
wind didn't ,freshen, so we had to
row home, which wasn't any easy

Answer to Question NO. 8:

3. Despite the current saying,
81 need that like I need hole
in the head" there are actual
cases where people have been
given holes in the head by a
medical technique known as
''trephining," in order to remove
tumors or to loosen adhesionS.
In ancient days the cavemen
drilled holes in the heads of
epileptics and sufferers from
headaches in order to "let the
devils out" From skeletons, it
has been determined that these
patients did not all die as re-
suit of the operations, but from
other causes.
