l$4t REMARKS AND OPINIONS. 



Pannog (T.), Paleu and Palaos (C.)> the Pelew 

 islands of Wilson. Los Arrecifes of R. L. de 

 Villalobos, 1542. Islands of Thieves of Sir Francis 

 Drake, 1579 ? 



An archipelago of high islands, divided into two 

 rows, which are constantly at war. The Pelew 

 islands are perfectly known to us, and are regu- 

 larly visited by our ships. They have a language 

 of their own, and even the people seem to differ 

 in many respects from the Carolinians. 



The chart of Don Luis de Torres is bounded 

 here, and Cantova has nothing in addition, except 

 St. Andrew's islands to the south-west of Palaos. 



Kadu reckons besides, in this direction, Lamu- 

 niur (K.), Lamuliur (Father Clain). Compare the 

 Doubtful islands of St. John. 



Sonsorol (K.), and Relation et Lettres Edifi- 

 antes, tom. xi, p. 7^., is also found on the accom- 

 panying chart. Sonrol in Cantova : both names in 

 Fr. Juan de la Conception. 



Kathogube (K.)> Codocopuei (C.) The two 

 latter are the St. Andrew's islands, where the first 

 missionaries, Cortil ai\d Duperon, were abandoned, 

 in the year I7IO, and which have since been for- 

 gotten. They appear in the reports of the mission 

 as islands of one group ; and Kadu, who separates 

 them, and gives their distances from each other 

 in days*^ voyages, cannot well be considered as 

 authority for islands which he has never visited.
