Excerpt from The Northern Iron
My Dear Bigger,
This story, as you have already guessed, is the fruit of a recent holiday spent in County Antrim. The writing of it has been a great pleasure, for almost every place mentioned in it recalls the goodness of the friends who received me and made my holiday a happy one. I think of kind people when I write of Dunseveric and Ballintoy - of hours spent in their company among the Runkerry cliffs, the sandhills, the Skerries, and of the morning on which I swam, like Neal and Una, into the Rock Pigeons" Cave. I remember a time - full of interest and delight - spent with you when I mention Donegore, Antrim, and Templepatrick. My mind dwells on an older, a very dear friend and relative, when I tell of Neal"s visit to Belfast. And the book is more than the recollection of a summer holiday.
