An Island Plant

Excerpt from page 3: When Nantucket town was called Sherburne, the houses of the first settlement at Maddeket were left isolated upon the western end of the island. There they stood staring, with the chagrined ex�pression of things conscious of having been left; toned at length into apparent resignation and sereneness by a soft washing in of gray; and brought finally to complete agreement with their setting of sea and sand by being propped up here and eked out there with the remnants of wrecks.
