CHAPTER V
63/77

He superintended the erection of the Wesleyan chapel in Kingston, the largest building of the kind in the island, and esteemed by many as the most elegant.

One of the largest bookstores in the island is owned by two colored men.
(Messrs.

Jordon and Osborne, already referred to.) Connected with it is an extensive printing-office, from which a newspaper is issued twice a week.

Another paper, under the control of colored men, is published at Spanishtown.
