Excerpt from Marken and Its People: Being Some Account Written From Time to Time Both During and After Visits Covering Some Considerable Space of Time Upon This Most Curious and Comparatively Unknown Island Since the railway people began to exploit them at per ticket (excursion), and the Markenites have been brought somewhat more in contact with civilization, they have undoubt edly lost many of their unsophisticated and pro verbially primitive ways and manners.
