CHAPTER XIV. 



THE COASTAL SEEYICE. 



The three preceding chapters are mainly in- 

 tended to describe the places of interest in the colony- 

 such as, in a small degree, may be found interesting 

 to travellers and tourists, mixing with their descrip- 

 tion a little history. There is still, however, another 

 journey embracing many view spots to which I 

 gladly call the attention not only of our own people 

 but also of visitors who may be able to spend a few 

 weeks amongst us, by taking a four days trip in the 

 steamers that run round the island weekly, calling at 

 many places where passengers can be landed, and un- 

 dergo an experience that will give them something to 

 remember and talk about, and bring them into con- 

 tact with a class of people one does not meet in Port- 

 of-Spain, and not only this, but also give them a good 

 insight to the out-of-the-way trade and products of 

 the colony. 



I know of no more interesting trip where so 

 much is to be seen and learned, if the passenger is 

 desirous of seeing and learning. This trip is not only 

 interesting but cheap, costing only ten dollars for 

 four days board, lodging, and travelling combined, 

 you may, of course, have to spend a few shillings more
