Etching on Mount Neahkahnie

Regarding the letter from Vince Kelly in the September 2014 issue of ½ñÈÕ³Ô¹Ï, T.S. and M.E. Eliot (Theodore S. Eliot ’21 and Mignon Eliot Eliot ’22) were my parents. My older brother was born in November 1924, and I was born in December 1925, so the description found by Vince must have been done between our births. My grandparents did have a house on the beach at Neahkahnie, which I was fortunate to spend the summer of 1933 in from our home in Tennessee. Quite an experience for a Mississippi River boy!
