| Title | Jaques and Fisher to William Philp Perrin: (with duplicate): the mill at Blue Mountain will be much more expensive if constructed entirely of stone; wooden mills have withstood the hurricanes before now, and they may well be better able to withstand earthquakes; report on the soils and crops of Blue Mountain; a plough would be an advantage if there was room to fatten the cattle; they have made an offer for the neighbouring pen; a number of Perrin's "negroes" have been christened - they consider it protects them from magic and charms. |
