Being of a Scrip- tural turn of mind and likening himself to Nebuchadnezzar, he named the place "the Babylonian Gardens, " and by that name it was known throughout the county and in the press of southern Nova Scotia. Jim surveyed the place with wonder, and Tom detailed his triumphs with zest, winding up with: "So you see, jim, there's a ...bit of the Nebuchadnezzar in me. " "What!
