36. Grenada. 17 May 1891. Refreshments, so we had some bottled ale and then proceeded on our tour towards town. We saw some descending the hill towards the Vale of Tempe, but he turned aside to see the water works reservoir, and it is full with a view. The scenery in the neighbourhood is fine, and the cool clear placed water in the reservoir is restful to the eye of along ride through country with varied scenery. Leaving the reservoir we rode on and some came to the spot I had reached with his health, and thence to town though the little village of Long Corners was familiar ground to me. Just beyond Sugar Corners we stopped at Dr. Hutton's home at Poileau, where we had tea and met D Boyd, Sir Deane, Mr Bush, the Col. Empire and others. As he stayed some time talking with his research of hours until it was nearly dark and I put up with Agrias as it was rather late to get to Fort House. Agrias has a fine stone house front to the fort. It is deliciously cool, and there is a good bath. As Agrias will be continually on the momentous home off to St Vincent I decided to sleep at his house instead of going back to Fort H's, and would be a nuisance coming to late and then rushing to dress perhaps keeping the people back. 18 May 1891. Monday. The Grenada telephoned down to know what had 37. Grenada. 18 May 1891. Remains of me, and he asked me to come up in time for lunch which I did. He was much interested in my tips, and the lady ship was very nice. As I had much writing todo, I asked them to excuse me going to dinner and I was brought to your place and had some luggage and done too. In the evening Agrias & I go to the Club. I play again a two of billiards with him. 19 May 1891. Wednesday. To day Agrias & I was through the St David's district which is the south end of the island. There is less cultivation here than in other parts of the island, and the valley, by the sea a better magnitude, with abandoned or partially cultivated. We called on the Rev Dr Branch, a cousin of Bishop Branch of Antigua, and father of the Miss Branch who put me in my car when I left Dominica. She is then goin from Antigua to St Vincent today, with her uncle Canon Branch there. The Branches were all pleased to see me (especially my travelling companion Miss B) for they had all heard of me. Mr Branch is also a planter, he has a small estate near to his Church which is about 3 miles from St George and belongs close to acres of cacao, nearly all of which he has planted with his own hands, and which gives a better return than any other cacao in the island. This is to be explained by the high morning - health.
