At first they were Mus-co-gees. but
later became known as Creeks. In the
South, a. hundred years or SO ago, they
began to mix with negro blood, and
the resulting race became known as
Seminoles, who settled rincipally in
South Florida. There are still a few
hundred Senlinoles in South Florida,

came out and slept aboard.
With shutdown it began to look quite
like a gale. but I gave the anchor 80

the night. At six this morning it
looked still worse and I regretted not
