The author believes that Leif landed first on Nauset Island (which has since disappeared). Thence he sailed to Nantucket, where grapes were foud, and to Martha's Vineyard where his party tarried for some time. But the winter was spent on No Man's Land, an uninhabited island four miles south of Martha's Vineyard.

Mr Gray has evidently made an extensive study of the topography of these islands, and he assures us that they meet and satisfy all the conditions laid down in the Vinland narratives. His presentation is quite convincing — or rather it would be if one could be sure that there are no other areas elsewhere on the Atlantic coast which also appear to satisfy the same conditions.

Mr Gray visited the island in October of 1927 and spent some time with us as our guest as he explored the possibility of the inscriptions' authenticity. He became very enthusiastic as the days went by, and told us he planned to include his opinions abouth this interesting discovery in a forthcoming book he was going to publish.
