OVERLAhJD FROM LA FE TO VINALES 223 



Vinales before the schooner could reach Esperanza, 

 and we laid out a scheme of work upon the neigh- 

 boring sierras which would tax our endurance to 

 the limit. Martinez, with his two mules and gouty 

 cab, was secured for a six o'clock start the follow- 

 ing morning.
