What follows is a letter (almost word for word) written to a friend who had sailed with me earlier that same summer. The letter was written at "Five Finger Bay" near Parry Sound, two or three days prior to my return to Midland at the end of the summer. Midland was TALARIA's home port and therefore would have marked the end of my summer's cruising. August 28, 92 at 0925)
