employed as guides. After a wearying

was that the visit should be made to the
crater as soon as possible and a quick
return be made TO Fort De France TO
avoid all danger.
While the evening meal was being pre-
pared the priest pointed out the work of
ruin that had been accomplished. He
said ne had refused to leave his post,
though he was not at all certain that
Morne Rogue would not be swept from

he was talking that the explosion came.
