Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Bulletin of the Essex Institute, Vol. 10 Monday, January 7, 1878. A Regular Meeting was held this evening. The President in the chair. Records of last meeting read. Correspondence and donations announced. Mr. J. W. Thyng, of Salem, was elected a member. Dr. George A. Perkins, of Salem, made some remarks on Liberia, particularly of the region about Cape Palmas, where he had resided for nine years prior to 1848, connected with the Episcopal Missionary Station at that place. After defining its geographical position he spoke of the peculiarity of that part of the western coast of Africa in having no harbors, - ships being obliged to anchor in the open roadstead, and all goods are landed either through the surf or in rivers which are entered over bars of sand at their mouths. The country, though flat, was beautified by extensive forests of high trees, tangled with immense vines; the tall plumelike palms form a striking feature in the landscape, are very abundant and give the name to Cape Palmas.
