  practical illustration of working
  

  a plot of their own, more so,
  

  at this time of high price and
  

  scarcity of food. However the
  

  crew we had stuck to the
  

  ship, and we could see
  

  the harbour, financially the
  

  outlook was bright. So we

  could dispel the opinion
  

  of those who said the
  

  plot would leave the Club
  

  pounds in debt. The task
  

  was hard, "What of that"
  

  the cause was good. Never
  

  have we had so much real
  

  pleasure in work as the
  

  labor that we have put in
