Staten Island whenever he got a holiday
from- his arduous newspaper work a few
years ago. ' He did not row very fast,
bnt he always made a complete circuit
of the island. I think the distance is
about forty miles; at any rate, I know
that Mr- Holly had ' to rise before day
light in order to get home with the cows
in the evening. It is a feat that he used
to speak of with a proud, beaming eye,
and I never wondered at it. I must say,
however, that in the course of' seven or
eight years' consideration of the subject, ;
I have never been 'able' to understand
exactly why a man should - care to row
