690 EAST COAST OF LABEADOE. 



water and rocks, and shoal water extends a short distance westward 

 of the two islands. 



Corbet island, northward about 1,400 yards from Dog and Big 

 Pig islands, is Ij^y miles long, eastward and westward, with an 

 average width of about 1,400 yards, and is in two parts joined by a 

 low neck about 40 yards wide. The summit of the eastern part is flat 

 and 232 feet high. The western part is 152 feet high, and nearly 

 subdivided by a deep cove that extends to within 65 yards of Orleans 

 arm. 



Solonion rock, with 2 feet of Avater over it, is at the end of a 

 ledge extending 150 yards from the western coast of Corbet island. 

 The summit of Green island in line with the southeastern end of the 

 eastern Deepwater island, bearing about 16°, leads westward of this 

 rock. 



Keefe island, about 40 feet high, lies 200 yards southward of the 

 middle of Corbet island, and is nearly joined to it by rocks; it is 

 on the western side of Corbet harbor. A rock, with 7 feet of water 

 ©ver it, lies southwestward 100 yards from the southern point of 

 Keefe island. 



Bryan island, 82 feet high, is on the eastern side of Corbet harbor, 

 and nearly joined to Corbet island, but there is a narrow channel, 

 iN'ith 3 fathoms of water in it, between them. 



The Sisters, small islets 8 feet high, lie close off the northeastern 

 point of Corbet island, and are bold-to on the northeastern side. 



Tom Cod rock, bearing 120°, distant 200 yards from the Sisters, 

 "sovers 1 foot, and is skirted by shoal water; Bantam rock, bearing 

 ;523°, distant 350 yards from the Sisters, has 11 feet of water over it. 



Herring" cove, 300 yards wide, 450 yards deep, and open, is on the 

 aorthern side of Corbet island. 



Orleans arm, westward of Herring cove, almost separates Corbet 

 Bsland into two parts; it runs 1,200 yards to the southward, is 200 

 yards wide at the entrance, and narrows gradually to the head. It 

 is rarely used, even by fishing craft, as a heavy sea sets in with north- 

 easterly winds. 



Webber harbor lies westward of Orleans arm and is separated 

 fi'om it by a peninsula and Lea island; this island is situated close 

 northward of the peninsula, and is 105 feet high, dark, cliffy, and 

 bold-to. The harbor extends south-southeastward 900 yards, with a 

 width of 135 yards, and it affords indifferent anchorage for fishing 

 graft, in 5 fathoms of water, opposite the opening between Lea island 

 and the i^eninsula, or farther up in 1^ fathoms. 



North Crow island, 106 feet high, lies 150 j^irds from the eastern 

 point of Corbet island. An islet, 5 feet high, lies close off' its south- 

 western point, and a sunken rock lies in the fairway of the channel 

 between Corbet and North Crow islands, leaving a narrow passage 

 (dose to North Crow island.
