C. ' Friday’s Child By LAWRENCE MADDRY ' J There have been so many stories generated by the Ash Wednesday Storm that it may be years before they are all related. Karen Scarborough, 10 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Scarborough of Nags Head has written us of her experiences and some of the letter is reproduced below, j “Tuesday, March 6,1962 was | like a spring day; that afternoon the wind started to pick up. I Everyone went to bed and when jl woke up and looked out, the ocean was coming over the hills. I went and called my mother and father; when they woke up. it was up to my knees outside. We thought the tide would go down, so we stayed in our house. But the tide kept getting higher. At about 10 a.m. the water was coming in our house. We put everything wescould on the bed. We sat on the couch until we couldn’t any more, then' we sat on the back of it for six hours.” Karen is quite an author for one of such tender years. In fact, a woman of any age who expresses herself well is some thing rare in this world. Some one once said that a woman who can preach is like a dog who walks on his hind legs; it isn’t so much that one needs to be proficient; the amazing thing is that it is done at all. Any 10 year old girl who can stay on the back of a couch ( for six hours deserves something | of an award. In fact, that may be the all time sit-still record for an adolescent There is no question about the fact that the N. C Highway Department has done a magnif icent job during and since Hie Ash Wednesday Storm. It does seem strange, however, that plans by the U. S. Army En gineer to fill the inlet at Buxton were announced, just as the tem porary bridge which is being constructed there got underway., The latest word is that Gover-I nor Sanford plans to come down to Buxton when the bridge is completed to perform a dedi cation ceremony. If develop ments proceed in the same di rection that now are indicated, the governor can walk across the hydraulic fill to the southern part of the bridge and cut the ribbon without getting wet That may or may not be more embar rassing than sitting on the back of a couch for six hours. The Child wishes to correct the ■ erroneous comment which appeared last Friday in this column. There was, if you re member, a statement concerning the observation of walking bull frog, by Henry Cheevers, colored mystic of Manteo. Cheevers has indicated that what he actually saw was a fur covered turkey playing a jews harp. Henry hasn’t indicated what the tune was. A symphony, no doubt. The Child was so anxious to write a hair-raising story about the storm that he just hauled i off and made one up. It isn’t as good as the truthful account of , Karen Scarborough’s or the ' story by Erskine Hooper which appeared in last week’s issue, 1 but here it is: 1 The storm was blowing very hard I On Wednesday mom out in my 1 yard, [ I jumped up on the chandelier and swung above the water dear, while everything swept out to sea, except the chandelier and me. ■ From where I hung my home looked glum 1 resembling an aquarium I I’ll n’er forget the Wednesday 1 Gale ) . . . that marlin or the friendly whale which plunged beneath me act ing queer while I hung from the chan , detier. ' A porpoise speared my pajamas and tried them on for size. They were the polka-dotted pair ► I always did despise; I It beat most anything I’ve seen | to see a porpoise splashing j In a pair of red pajamas. He sure as hell looked dashing. , But now the gale is over . .. The weather’s bright and clear, ’ and where the waiter was before there’s sand up to my ear, As I gase at the destruction, while astride the chandelier. It really was a swinging time Like typhoons in the Bahamas ) and I wonder now what ev« became , of that porpoise in pajamas.
