They started off on their own accounts, and most of them came to this town, where they settled, and have had a good time ever since.

There are a great many of them here now, descendants of the original Minorcans, and they keep pretty much together and keep their old name, too.

They look a good deal like Spaniards, Mr.Cholott said, and many of them are very excellent people.
Rectus took the greatest interest in these Minorcans, but we didn't take board with any of them.

We went to the house of a lady who was a friend of Mr.Cholott, and she gave us a splendid room, that looked right out over the harbor.

We could see the islands, and the light-house, and the bar with the surf outside, and even get a glimpse of the ocean.
