""We are at the inlet, and heading, I trust, directly through it! You hear the cries on our right; they come from the end of the northern reef, while these on our left are from the end of the southern. The sounds from the ship, the direction of the land breeze, our distance--all confirm it, and Providence again befriends us!""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
