Excerpt from Sunnyside: A Story of Industrial History, and Co-Operation for Young People Once I was shipwrecked, and they love to hear me tell Of how I and three other men lived on a little island for nearly a year before we were rescued. One little fellow he is a man now - nearly always asked me, when I had finished telling a new story, to tell again the story Of my shipwreck. SO many questions did he ask that in fun I called him Little Asker. Sometimes he would bring some new companion or visitor to hear the story.

One Of the shipwrecked men was a rich merchant, another was a schoolmaster, and the third was a sailor, whilst I, in those days, was a carpenter. Little Asker thought it was so nice that even the rich man was willing to help in the work we had to do. He was proud, I think, that I was made captain Of our little shipwrecked party. It pleased him to know that the rich man would carry wood from the beach or forest to help in the building Of the cabin, or would help in the catching or cooking Of fish, or in gathering fruit, when there was any to be Obtained, or in fetching water.
