For drinking water they had to go to the next house. We walked back along the shore. The rocks here are like steps, interrupted occasionally by a washed out dyke. A walk over this kind of thing, although inter- esting, begins to be tiresome when you have covered four miles and we arrived back to the yacht with the foundation of an appetite. We got acquainted with a lobsterman who came in from his traps tonight. In- vited him aboard and prescribed for his cough. Had quite an interesting chat wit...h him. He told how he was on Monhegan Id., in the storm in which the Port- land was lost, visiting aboard a fisherman, and being caught by the blow, was unable to get ashore. He said he expected to go adrift every moment, in which case all hands would have been lost. The anchor held, however, although they passed anything but a comfort- able night. When our visitor left, he gave us a lot of small lobsters, and, as one of the crew expressed it, for the next two or three days we had lobster boiled, fried, a la Newburg, lobster stew, and lobster tut, tut.
