Capt. Hayden M. Smith The country by way of the Sea View Hotel! The miles from here furnishes good bathing or clean pebbly beaches. We found thin miles of low mangrove swamp, then many Rubber Planting the trees about 6 years old or so tall with enamel cups attached to the base at the terminus of the scars out from which the milky sap trickles slowly. Much of the country is cleared to cover poles which formed a dense forest on either side of the road. Some Mangrove trees were seen on the roadside.
