65 Old maps owned by the writer show the island, Tremont, Bes and South- west Harbore, Bernard and Somesville heavily populated along the coast, with Eden showing scant occupancy. This is written at length as, to the writer, the life style and accomplishments of these people are remarkable - the epitone of Down East Yankee persistence, ingenuity, capacity for hard work and making the most of every resource. Swans Island comes noxt, with several state ferries each day and one or two during the week to Frenchboro, on Long Island. Islesford is noted as the home of the famous Sawtelle Museum (Acadia National Park), with Professor Sawtelle's daughter, Mrs. Ernest Libby, as curator. There is also a fair in the summer, which draws hundreds of people. Cranberry has an excellent little restaurant beside the pebble beach, and on the way back to the boat, near the former, is a very nice little store, selling indigenous and other appropriate items. The viewa from both of the Mt. Desert hills and Somes Sound are magnificant and the sail over to both very pleasant. Watch for guillemots or sea pigeons bobbing on the water. The famous book "God's Pocket", the story of Capt. Samuel Hadlock, Jx. and his foreign "Prussian lady", his wife, is almost unbelievable. It was written by Miss Rachel Field, a beloved summer resident of Sutton's Island to whom the journals of the captain's adventures were loaned by the captain's grandson. It is a record of sights seen in the villages and courts of Europe; of meetings with royalty; of the showman's love for "a Prussian lady" (whom he brought back with him); and of the keen observations of a man whose imagination was quickened by any deviation from the human pattern. His wife was Dorothea Albertina Wilhelmina of Charlottenburg of Prussia, who lived on at the island with her children for fifty-two years
