| Summary: | breeze1 v And there were a couple o' old fellers comin' down there one time,and I mean they were pretty (??HIGH NERVOUS???)people,you know. I used to hear the old fellers talkin' about (IT).And they were rowing down the.the old sail skiff ,you know, they used to go up the bay them times.used to go up there about fifteen miles,twenty miles,for a load o' wood,firewood,or probably stage-material (THAT'S RIGHT??)whatever (ONE OF 'EM [IT] MIGHT) BE.) Comin' down this night AN' one of 'em said to the other feller,he said,"I'd like to see Baker's Light tonight!" (The) other feller xxxx said,"Yes. If he ever show[ED],I like for him to show now!" And 'twas only (THIRTY?) minutes before,of course,he did show! And he got so near that he come (LIGHTIN'?/RIGHT in?)over the OARS,you know. He was (DABBIN IN/IT?) on their oars. He frightened 'em almost to death. Well they started to do now whatever they could do in regards o' pullin' the boat,which that wasn;t very fast! One feller back scullin',you know,and the other feller pulling. An' anyway they got it down to a certain cove ,and the wind blew. breezed up, YOU KNOW,BLEW A GALE. So THAT they were so frightened they xxxxx leaved their boat,and they shouted out to the old feller (THAT) was livin' there,so he came out,and got two or three more fellers [AN'] tied on their boat. THEY went on anyway. They were fright (I.E. frightened) right to death! So I mean it gave 'em a big shaking- up anyway!They didn't wish any more (that day ,we'll say!) Yes Man frightened by _Baker's Light_. (Twillingate) J. WIDDOSON Used I and Sup Used I and Sup Not used
