  • Down to the Sea in Ships ¶14 ("I was only eleven years old" (lecture, 1967))
  • Down to the Sea in Ships ¶14 (I mean I was simply off Martinique, for seven days the ship didn’t move, becalmed, because there was no wind to take our sailing ship. They all gave up hope that I would ever come home. I was only eleven years old.)
  • Trust Imagination ¶35 (I came back during the First World War. I went down on a schooner to what is now called the Virgin Islands; then they were owned by Denmark — Santa Cruz, and what is now Saint Thomas, and then Saint John.)
