Towards evening, the air about the Hut was quite still except for gusts from the north and rather frequent ‘whirlies’.

This was the name adopted for whirlwinds of a few yards to a hundred yards or more in diameter which came to be regarded as peculiar to the country.

Beyond the strange stillness of the immediate vicinity, broken occasionally by the tumult of a passing, wandering whirly, an incessant, seething roar could be heard. One could not be certain from whence it came, but it seemed to proceed either from the south or overhead.

At night one would involuntarily wake up if the wind died away, and be loath to sleep ‘for the hunger of a sound’.
