The Lost Island
By Helen C. Cushman
How can an island be lost? After
all, an island is a tangible thing, a
tract of land surrounded by water.
But along Thirty Mile River the
height of the water changes, new
dams are built, and as the water
rises, islands float away and some
times become part of the main
land. Once in a while they just vsn
ish, and are lost forever like the
islands of Timothy Boyle, and him
with them.
... i
Timothy came to Maine the year
after the great potato famine in
Ireland which was in 1846. In the
five years after the disaster more
than a million of the Irish people
emigrated to the United States.
Timothy came from the country
near Lough Lean which once ruled
by the great O'Donoghue, who le
genl has it, revisits bis ancient do
' mains at sunrise on Bay 1st, the
anniversary of his departure. In
fact, Timothy, when he found a re
ceptive ear and a host who would
quench his thirst, often bragged
that he bad seen the great ruler
on a May - morning by Killarney
where he was before dawn for the
fishing.
And 'tis sure that no luckier
fisherman than Timothy Boyle has
ever lived along Thirty Mile River.
For a boat he had a curra?h, one of
the trickiest and speediest craft
ever made, a flimsy canvas canoe
of the kind still used by the cour
ageous and skillfull Atlantic. Each
spring he was gone for a month to
one of the large and, then, unpol
luted rivers Where Atlantic sal
mon ran, coming back with such
shining beauties that they bad to
be seen to be believed. He caught

The. king advised the judges to-',

trouble with those "high places"
was that they tended to get ofel
the track and actually become cen

a repulsive sort But the significant
thing about this king's attitude to
religion was that he expected It to
