Summary

A story about Ernest Hart, a beloved and respected craftsman who for over fifty years served the people of the Margaree Valley of Cape Breton Island, making chairs to which not a nail or a touch of glue was added. Tells of his relations with his two grandsons, contrasting the restrained wisdom of age and the over-confidence of freckle-faced youth.
