GENTLEMAN’S COUNTRY HOME 
FOR SALE OR RENT 
over a dozen 'coons, all fat and fit in every 
way. 
Perhaps one reason for Br'er 'Coon’s 
flourishing so here is that his hereditary foe, 
the darky and his 'coon dog, is singularly 
absent. A Southern ’coon hunt without the 
African and his dog, is not unlike Hamlet with 
tile melancholy prince left out. To us it looked 
as if the coast rim about Hatteras would be an 
ideal spot for our colored brother, who likes 
to live without work. All he would need would 
lie an old army musket, a cast net, a few fish 
lines, a shanty built out of beach-comber’s lum¬ 
ber, and a good ’coon dog. It looked as if this 
locality would beat even the Yazoo Swamps in 
Mississippi, as the spot where Sambo might sit 
back, and out of a “full belly,” warble his old 
song:

“ ’Possum up a gum tree, ’coon in de holler. 
Rabbit in de briar patch, fat as he kin waller.” 
But the negro 'Simply is not in it along the 
seaboard rim of North Carolina, especially 
about Hatteras. The white natives simply will 
not have him about at any price—as a perma¬ 
nent residenter. It may be, however, that the 
driving storms, and the constant thunder of old 
ocean roaring the year round so nearby, has 
something to do with it. With all its crude 
abundance, this narrow eastern edge of the old 
North State is, in many ways, a strenuous coun¬ 
try to live in. 
After a final week of enjoyment and open 
hospitality on the part of our friends the coast 
guards, to whom we must add the people and 
families at the lighthouse, Ben Bolt and the 
writer at last voyaged back toward old Virginia 
via the inland waters of the sounds. 
It being well on toward winter, and north¬ 
ers prevailing, the little coasting sloop that bore 
us took another week to beat up through Pam¬ 
lico, .Albemarle, Croatan and Currituck Sounds. 
In fact, it was a "long leg and a short one” 
all the way up, and the "long leg” was not so 
lengthy after all. We were zig-zagging from 
one tack to the other nearly the whole way 
back; and we realized the perversity of nature 
when, almost within sight of the railroad that 
would take us back to Norfolk, the wind veered, 
backed and finally settled into a steady south¬ 
easter, which probably lasted as long as the 
other. But we did not care. We were back 
again, safe, well tanned and hearty. If we had 
it all to do over again another year, it is likely 
that we would not kick, provided we could 
spare the time which grubbing after reluctant 
dollars that “must be had” imposes on our un¬ 
willing souls.

While I was watchin’ I forgot to keep up that 
eternal wriggle, an’ had slipped down close to 
the falls. I could feel the cool swift water 
carryin’ me with it. All at once every fish in 
the pool turned to watch me an’ several conic as 
close as they dared. 
" 'You’ve passed the danger limit,’ half a 
dozen of ’em yelled. 
"At once they were frightened an' to tell
