 HAKES' TEETH. 



(See 2)0 ge 110.) 



Mr. Matthias Dunn lias kindly followed up this subject 

 for me. He writes as follows : 



'^ I, like you, have seen marked on various Sea Charts 

 the soundings as '* Hakes' teeth," and have wondered 

 what it could mean. 



"In the summer, 18G8, this matter was cleared up 

 by my brother. He w^s becalmed one night about 

 twelve miles S.W. from the Bishop's Lighthouse, Scilly 

 Isles, near where ''Hakes' teeth" are reported in Charts.
