Willie Spence might have been considered eccentric by many, but his unique talent for inventing gadgets in his cozy workshop on Cape Cod set him apart.

Yet, the townsfolk cherished Willie for his quirky charm as he spent his twilight years patiently awaiting the arrival of his long-dreamed ship. (Summary by Roger Melin)
