The Logbooks of the Lady Nelson

CHAPTER 1
29/51

At 5 A.M.saw another cape not unlike the Deadman in the English Channel: it runs a considerable way into the sea.

When to the west it appears like a long barn arched on the top with a high bluff and next the sea resembling the gable end of a house.

I named the land Sir William Grant's Cape.* (* Lieutenant Grant also called this cape, Cape Solicitor.

This name did not survive--the cape being known as Cape Sir W.Grant.) Off this Cape are two small islands (the largest appears like two) having two hummocks joined together by a neck of low land which is not seen till pretty close.

On approaching, the smaller island is seen--a little nearer the shore.
