The drive made up for everything 
ich subsequently happened. There 
i no other ride just like it, short of 
al England. 
| >oon we had creaked out and out 
ng a very fine road, undulating, 
lying around easy corners, up little 
pes and down almost indistinguish- 
e hills, where the only vista was one 
interminable moorland, occasionally 
ashed with the weathered gray of 
y old cranberry-bog huts, or fishing 
tages, or areas of the strangest of 
nted pines, springing up bravely for 
ear or so, only to fade and die, from 
le mysterious cause. 
'ast Monomoy, having turned to the 
!; from the main Siasconset road, and 
rrant glimpses of North Pasture, 
iwkemo Hills, Shimmo, toppling at 
edge of the harbor on its far east- 
rim, with the Brant Point beacons 
re ghosts across a sheet of silent 
;er. And now a panoramic view of 
village of Nantucket, poured, as if 
m a funnel, around the loop of har- 
—a quaintly beautiful stage-set of 
trees and old houses, and gold and 
ite steeples—never completely real, 
eyes which were unaccustomed to 
h sights. Past Quaise and within 
w of Polpis Harbor, as we bear to 
right and up a baby hill. The 
)rs are soothing to the eye, with 
ir deep purple heather and their 
nberry bogs of lustrous green. The 
dside hedge is shrine for countless 
d roses, delicately pink. The bay- 
y is everywhere, fragrant in the 
7 that old sea chests are fragrant: 
rsh - mallows, even buttercups 
und. Scotch heather and Irish 
om! Once we passed a cluster of 
ider, shimmering white birches 
.inst their rugged background of 
sted and gnarled fir. 
ind at last the flivver takes a smart 
n away from the road and up a 
row dirt lane. Clustered on the hill 
a dozen of those inevitable grey 
ses . . . hens cackling, the grunt- 
of small pigs . . . tasselled coun¬ 
gentleman corn, whipped into ac- 
i by a stiff wind which has recently 
le in from the ocean—a wind brew- 
mischief! 
ap’n Henry is plucking the feathers 
n three plump white leghorn pul- 
, freshly killed. To his right an en¬ 
ure holds several exceedingly inter- 
ng baby pigs, as sleek and as clean 
f just scrubbed under a pump. They 
e been fed on—Sonnyboy marvels 
:his—remnants of perch and lobster 
birds, shot out over the moors, 
'iously there is sport aplenty here 
nd game to spare. 
'ap’n Henry supplies us with lines 
a very heavy, a very sturdy, flat- 
:omed rowboat. Are there perch in
