To sit through the incidents in
Tcrwilliger’s romance with Helen is
to live his life as he lived it. with all
its sunshine and sorrows. In a way
typical only of Boraage. the story is
told of Terwillger’s sacrifice for the

plot is to take awe. half of the
pleasure one derives living Ter-
willger's adventures. Unusual in
