HICKMAXS ISLANDS^ WAKWICK HARBOE. 569 



b}' these rocks are about 200 yards in width, with deep water, but 

 there is a rocky patch with 4 fathoms of water over it bearing 211^, 

 distant nearly 400 yards from the rock 18 feet high. Inside, the har- 

 bor is I mile long, eastward and westward, and ^ mile wide, with 4 

 to 5 fathoms of water, mud bottom. 



A sunken rock, with shoal water around it, lies 150 yards off the 

 middle of the northern shore, and another sunken rock lies about the 

 same distance off the northeastern shore. A large stream runs into 

 the northern part of the harbor, draining a considerable tract of 

 country, and good-sized spars are brought down by it. 



Round harbor, on the western side of Pope harbor, is a snug basin 

 400 yards long, eastward and westward, 150 yards wide, and 3 

 fathoms deep ; its entrance is narrow, with 2 fathoms water. 



Indian lookout is a remarkable hill immediately over the south- 

 western shore of Pope harbor ; its summit is a steep cliff 505 feet high. 



Hickman islands, southward nearly | mile from Pope harbor, 

 comprise a group of islets and rocks extending about 1,400 yards 

 parallel to the shore, the northeastern and highest being 98 feet high. 

 The islets are separated from the northwestern shore by a channel 

 400 yards wide, carrying 20 to 29 fathoms of water, in which, at 100 

 yards from the mainland, are two rocks; one of these uncovers, the 

 other has less than 6 feet water over it. Hickman harbor, a narrow 

 inlet, fronted by islets, is 100 yards wide at the entrance, and 4 

 fathoms deep at 200 yards witlnn, when it quickly narrows to 20 

 yards, and is choked with rocks. 



Warwick harbor, southwestward f mile from Hickman islands 

 and on the Avestern side of a small peninsula 45 feet high, has a 

 narrow entrance, but within it is 500 yards long, eastward and west- 

 ward, and 200 yards wide; much of this space is occupied by an 

 islet with rocks in the channel on either side of it. A vessel drawing 

 6 feet water could be warped in. 



Burn point lies southwestward 2^ miles from Warwick harbor; tlie 

 shore between, forming a slight bend, is steep-to and in some places 

 is composed of cliffs. At 1^ miles farther westward is a small bay 

 with a stream running into it, and a rock, 8 feet high, lying close off 

 its eastern point. 



Irelands Eye island, the northeastern end of which bears 150°, 

 distant 1 mile from British Harbor point, rises in several remarkable 

 peaks; the highest, near the middle, is 440 feet high; the island is 

 steep and rocky on all sides, and se]>arated from tlie northeastern end 

 of Enndom island by the Thoroughfare, a narrow channel. 



Irelands Eye point, the northeastern end of the island, is a steep 

 cliff, and at 1:^ miles southward of it is the entrance to Irelands Eye 

 harbor; about midwav is Jacobs cove, in Avhich are several small
