Quite a little ‘interest was created 
at Singing Beach Monday afternoon 
by the appearance of a young doe, 
which was first seen swimming in 
from the direction of Magnolia, 
probably from the McMillan estate. 
She came near the shore and stood in 
the shallow water for some time, 
looking about at her strange sur- 
roundings, and it was not until she 
was frightened by a party of people 
that she bounded away across the 
beach, disappearing finally in the 
woods on Smith’s Point. It was 
nearly sunset, and in the quiet of 
the late afternoon the little doe 
seemed a part of some remote, pic- 
turesque scene.
