Most children love to hear stories, especially at bedtime. The
favorite story of my two sons was told them by their father, over
and over again, of which they never tired: HOW HE CAME OVER TO
AMERICA FROM SCOTLAND ON A BIG BOAT.My purpose in writing this
story now, of my voyage to Africa on a freighter, is that my
grandchildren and great grandchildren might enjoy hearing of some
of my experiences, which in the providence of God, have taken place
in my life.Some statistics and a little information was acquired
from the library before leaving for the various countries. This has
been interwoven in my travelogue all of which was written on board
ship.
