At his wits’ end. (This is an idiom.) He was at his wits’ end.
Why was at his wits’ end Why did he reach his limit
Well, because had endured so much noise in San Francisco and then, finally, he went to
the park and there was a huge loud music festival.

It was the ‘last straw’. We say the ‘last straw’. It means it’s the last thing that you can
endure; the final thing.

So Allen was at his wits’ end. He was sick of loud, blaring music. He was sick of
loud blaring sirens. He was sick of the noise in San Francisco. He had no more
patience for it.
So was he patient or was he at his wits’ end
He was at his wits’ end.
Did he have more patience or was he finished with San Francisco
He was finished with San Francisco. Allen was at his wits’ end. He couldn’t take it
anymore. He reached his limit. He was at his wits’ end.
So finally he decided “I must leave San Francisco. I must find peace and quiet.”
And so he searched through travel books and maps and one day he saw a
gorgeous, beautiful, picture of Maui, Hawaii and he decided immediately “I’m
moving to Maui!” And he did. He moved to Maui and every day on Maui, the Island
of Maui in Hawaii, every day was peaceful and serene and beautiful and Allen
finally found peace and calm and was very, very happy.
