text_original: Our first call was at the small island forming the easternmost extremity of the group, which I had practically determined upon as our place of abode during such time as fate might keep us prisoners on the group; and we found it almost ideal for our purpose. In the first place there was, on its south western side, a snug little cove, just large enough to accommodate our boat, and wherein she might ride safely in all weathers.
