In the 1920s two very eccentric brothers living on the island of Grand Manan became internationally famous as the mysterious and enigmatic “Dark Harbour Hermits.”

Hundreds of tourists from the United States and even faraway Europe came to visit the hermits, who were known as Lucy and Darby, in their homemade shacks on the beaches of the strange and isolated place known as Dark Harbour, where the hermits would entertain the tourists with their art, their poems, and their songs.

In the 1937 reporter Chester Allan Dickson spent some time in their house in Dark Harbour, which they called The Bat, to profile the Hermits.

He wrote: “There is a sort of Treasure Island atmosphere about the building and its surroundings and the hermits, themselves, could easily be mistaken for members of Long John Silver’s crew.”

Before the reporter left, he asked them to recite him a poem.

Lucy stood up and with “arms folded in a Napoleonic style” recited in “sepulchral tones which dovetail nicely into the prophetic incantations”:

“There’s many a coat that is tattered and torn,
That beneath lies a true honest heart.
But because he’s not dressed like his neighbors in style,
Society keeps them apart.
For on one fortune smiles, while the other one fails,
Yes, no matter what venture he tries.
Time calls them both to the grave in the end,
And six feet of earth makes us all one size.”
