Early In 1300 I had a charming trip to Cuba and 
Jamaica with Major Powell, the purpose being to study the col- 
lections of aboriginal antiquities preserved in island museums 
and in other collections, and to carry on such researches as 
would be possible in the few weeks that could be spared for the 
purpose® 
The trip was made by way of Tampa and Key West to 
Havana, Cuba® The several points visited are as follows; 
Kingston 
Mataasas 
Cien Puegos 
Hand evi lie 
Montego 
Port Antonio

Durden which were found to contain small 
accumulations of fossil bones- )
