On a pleasant day in August we took one of the many 1 _to_ 2 plying
between city and 2 _to_ 4, and with 3 _to_ 4 hearts started on a day’s
pleasure trip. Some 5 _to_ 7 pointed out many objects of interest. On
landing, we took a stroll and then seated ourselves on some old 1 _to_ 5
to eat a 6 _to_ 8 and to watch the beautiful white 3 _to_ 7 that were 1
_to_ 3 over the water. A few 5 _to_ 6, trying to gain health and 7 _to_
8 by a plunge in salt water, were thrown into a panic by a mischievous
boy who cried out that he saw 2 _to_ 6 close by. The bathers were glad to
take refuge on solid 4 _to_ 8.
