...cases of the disease have become rare among ethnic Hawaiians and part-Hawaiians, and leprosy can be treated so successfully today that newly identified patients soon become noncontagious.

A former staff writer, Skow left New York City 15 years ago for the salubrious airs of the country. On his 45-acre New Hampshire farm, he chops the wood that heats his house and repairs stone fences. A runner, Skow also enjoys tennis, canoeing, skiing and hiking. In 1971 he climbed the 24,500-ft. Mt. Noshaq in Afghanistan...
