7^6 EAST COAST OF LABEADOE, 



Fox island, southwestward 1 mile from Teapot island, is a barren 

 island, 125 feet high, with a flat summit falling steeply at the south- 

 western end. The passages between Fox island and the mainland, 

 Teapot island and Duck islands, are encumbered by rocks and must 

 not be attempted. 



Emily harbor is on the western side of Brig Harbor island and be-

 northwestern side of Brig Harbor island. There is no passage from 

 the westward.

 northwestward of Dark Tickle harbor, is shallow, and only suitable 

 for small craft which moor to the shore. This is one of the principal
