Transcription: The islanders were less than pleased with this particular disharmonious development. Alternative means of powering the gramophone had to be found. To this end, I fashioned a windmill linked to my gramophone's crank by a system of gears and belts. It wasn't until we experienced several days without wind that I realized that the island's weather was not to be relied upon. As this uncertain climate could render my windmill redundant for unspecified periods of time, I was forced to re-employ the mammoth, assisted this time by a small yet effective preventive measure.
