nearly two miles wide separates it from Lewis 
Island; and between Enderby and Rosemary 
Islands is Goodwyn Island. The shores of the 
bay were plentiful in shell-fish, particularly 
oysters ; and beche de mer % were also abundant in 
the crevices of the rocks ; but there were no traces 
of this part of the coast having been visited by 
the Malays, who annually visit it to the east-

bones of kangaroos and fishes were strewed.

water were found and brought on board; and
