First Hans was ahead and leading by a few yards. On they sped, tiny figures down the course. Suddenly Peter Van Holp shot into the lead. The boys had turned the loop and swung into the home stretch. Three of them were neck and neck. The crowd was wildly cheering. Now the race was almost over. Streaking past the others, a straining figure crossed the finish line. Peter Van Holp had won the silver skates! M 7 STETSON SHRINE Joan acFarlane In our community there is a place of historic interest. In 1634 Cornet Robert Stetson received a large grant of land from the Colony Court. This estate on the North River made up his farm. His house was built on a beautiful plain near the stream. An unfailing and valuable spring which has supplied eight generations of the family marks the spot. Cool, tasty water is still being produced by the spring. 'Cornet's Rocksn in the river east of his farm are well known to those who navigate the channel. His old farmhouse is still standing but slowly going to rack and ruin. It is now known as 'Stetson's Shrinen. Every year the Stetson family gath- ers for a 'Stetson Reunion Weekn. The place is also visited by many a camper, hiken and his- torian. It is located off Stetson Road in the Church Hill section of Norwell.

Before me an endless silver sheen spread like a frosted mirror. The black shapes of ships silhouetted on the crest of the sheet looked like black paper cut-outs pasted into place. Their rigging cast on the water intricate Spanish lace shadows. On the horizon was the dark figure of a lighthouse which had been de- serted for many years. Here and there the full moon cast weird shadows. Slightly detracting from the beauty of the scene was the usual fishy smell. Soft lapping of the waves almost lulled me to sleep, but somehow I cou1dn't close my eyes to the loveliness of the scene. Anne Wilson 8 ACCORD POND Accord Pond is a lovely place surrounded by towering pines. Now and then a fish breaks its calm surface. If you look hard enough you can see them swimming in the cool, clear water. From the east shore floats the fragrance of wild roses. Quite often can be heard the clamor of wild geese as they settle down on the silver water. Paul Robinson 8 14
