At three Michael arrives at the cigar merchant's office. It is a couple of miles out in the swamp. He sends a flat bottomed skif with two toad men to pole you out. The skiff has a small enclosure of mosquito netting which you find you need in order to make the trip. The thick warty hide of the toad men seems impervious to the bugs. The heat and humidity are oppressive to say the least. Soon you arrive at a small island in the swamps where open drying sheds, a large building and a couple of small houses rest. As you approached you began to notice small tufts of tabacco plants growing. You are led to one of the houses which is the merchant's office. The little building has a large tile roof that shades the broad porches. You are taken to an upstairs balcony on the north side of the building that is protected by screens. A young toad man just outside sits on a strange seat pushing a set pair of alternating planks down, as one goes down the other goes up. Once inside the sheltered porch the purpose is clear. The young man is powering a pair of slow moving fans that provide some relief from the heat. A chilled pitcher of mild fruity wine punch awaits you. A toad man in a formal jacket brings in a silver tray holding a selection of cigars in different sizes and some loose tobacco. The toad man tells you that Mister Boudreau will be with you shortly.</blockquote>
