The story of Martha's Vineyard, from the lips of its inhabitants, newspaper files and those who have visited its shores, including stray notes on local history and industries; . he reason of his being trussed up insuch fashion. It is not stated whether anything further hap-pened. Much depended no doubt on the relative size of theundertaker and the undertaken, HUZZLETONS HEAD AND THE HOUSE OF THE TORY. Descending the hillthat lets one downfrom the more thick-ly settled parts of thevillage, we glanceacross the lowground of Frog Al-ley scooped out pre-sumably by the ac-tion of water in pre-historic times. Hereis one of those en-ticing views of theharbor, punctuatedwith one of the Vine-yards old homes which reclines on a spur of the higher groundthat walls us in.
