IV

The next morning we found more fish awaiting us, and on the smooth sand

of the beach was a message written with a stick:--

If you will leave a wire hairpin or two on this stone I can get

bigger fish. What do you mean to do with all those rabbit skins?

(Signed) P.

Tish was touched by the fish, I think. She smoothed off the sand

carefully and wrote a reply:--

Here are the hairpins. Thank you. Do you want the rabbit skins?
