Campbell Island
"THE first talk in a series on Camp bell Island, by T. P. Hammond, who was the leader of the meteorological party stationed there, whetted the appetite for more. Mr. Hammond spoke easily and fluently (a rare thing from
the local specialist), conveying precisely the feeling of a small community. isolated and independent. His most attractive attribute, I found. was that.
without talking down to his audience, he assumed on their part, and presumably rightly, an almost total ignorance of the conditions of life on the island. And there was also his enthusiasm; ‘island life not having lost its attraction for him, he was able to convey
its magic to his audience.
