these things because in his business of lumbering up in the North Woods of Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan they still shipped lumber by water and he had a reconditioned tugboat and had qualified as a ship's master on the Great Lakes. It might have ^been he who was commanding the oil-barge with the long wisp of smoke, way off on the horizon, or ordering the crew to salute the light on the breakwater at the entrance to the harbor crossed out: . There in obedience to the rules of the sea. This deepened my relationship with my father, and made it seem to me a thrilling moment when I could go to meet his train as he came home from his work at the end of the day. "I hate to think that you go crossed out:into ^work in the dirty city every day just for us." "Why
darling , if it weren't for you I wouldn't have
any motive for working, or even for living." We walked home hand in hand, crossed out: as it began to grow dark in a sweet smelling dusk.
