...images for worship, and dormitory building in which the temple's 75 monks slept. I was taken into the dormitory section and brought to the room of the monk I had met outside who became my host.

An exodus of the remaining young families would be the killing blow. The post office, the general store, the snow plow and even the daily ferry would stop. The island, still populated by descendants of its 17th century settlers, would become...
