Buck bay" which opens into it on the
south side. On the southeast side of San

miles long.
The census roll of 1850 shows a little less
than l.5oo people for san Juan county; but.
owing 70 the difficulty of making q correct
enumeration in the limited time allowed
the assessor, ECO would perhaps be more
nearly correct.
The people of the islands are intelligent,
wide-awake and thrifty, and by their in
dustry and perseverance most of them
have built pleasant homes where they
easily get good living and are enabled to
lay up something for rainy day. Al
though San Juan county is comparatively
new, and largely undeveloped, her advan-
tages are unsurpassed, and within few
years this will become not only a rich
province. but one which will supply large
part of the produce consumed in this Sec
ton.
San Juan has built up wonderfully within
the past few years. The following figures
are taken from the assessment roll of San
Juan county for 1850, and they speak well
for her people:
