This place of their sojourn resembled one before described, and many others I had seen.

An extensive circle was formed by laying a large flat stone upon the ground, and on each of these a smaller one; between the two they evidently crushed the shellfish and nuts which formed their food.

Near some of the stones were laid huge shells for the purpose of drinking from; and in the centre of the circle were the marks of frequent fires.

We heard the natives calling to one another in the woods, but saw none of them; and in the evening returned to our encampment.
ISTHMUS NEAR HANOVER BAY.
January 6.
I made an excursion this day for the purpose of examining the land lying between Port George the Fourth and Hanover Bay: it consists of a low neck which connects the peninsula terminating in High Bluff Point with the main.

Thus it is bounded on two sides by the sea, and on the other two by rocky hills which are perfectly precipitous, both towards the main and the peninsula; but a natural terrace runs along under the cliff in the direction of Camden Sound, which I believe would form a good road to that harbour.
