Babson Calls Cartagena
Quaintest City In America

CARTAGENA, Colombia, July
IA citadel within a handbook
ed harbor, two castles guarding a
narrow entrance, massive battle
ments and ramparts-these are
what l found in this guaintest
city of the western hemisphere.
Cartagena is the Oldest Carib-
bean port of Colombia, South
America. The city Was founded
in 1888 by Don Pedro de Here
dia. as a starting place for his ex-
peditions for gold.
Many were the romantic le-
gends regarding the wealth of
these mountains and valleys.
1t is no wonder Spain felt it
necessary to spend $60,00O,0O0, i
fabulous sum in the sixteenth GEN.
fury, in fortifying this, her first
settlement in Colombia. These
notifications are built of yellow
white coral in concrete, which
seems to be indestructibIe.
Cartagena is the third oldest
city on the American continent.
1t still shows many characteristics
of the old Spanish days. The
narrow streets are paved with
rough stone, the buildings are
closely massed, red tiled and
made of the same material as are
the Notifications.
Facing the parks ar emany old
churches and converts which
show the distinctive architecture
of these colonial days.
An old castle and fort lying on
a hill which overlooks the city is
the seat of the INQUISITION sit
ting here from 1910 to 1921. The
underground passages aud dun
geons suggest gruesome things
regarding the decisions of tlis old
court.
Every expedition to seize from
Spain her rich domains in the
West Indies had Cartagena for It's
objective point. These massive
battlements and forts have been
resieged and bombarded for
months at time. Col. Lawrence
Washington, elder brother of our
first president, commanded a
body of men fro mour 10 colonies
as part of an expedition under
the lead of the English Admiral
Vernon, to capture this city in
I1741.
The name Mount Vernon was
given by George Washington to
his Virginia home on accoun. of
his admiration of this brilliant
but unsuccessful action of Ad-
miral Vernon.
This was one of those little es-
capades that my school histories
didn't tell about!
All the romantic stories of the
buccaneers who Sailed the Spau-
ish Main" are connected with this
fortified city. Many tales are told
OF the during, adventurous men
of that time, whose one object
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1916-07-05

was to get riches away from those
who had them, in any way posi-
BILE, regardless of right or law.
On hill lying back of the
town stands an ancient convent,
easily seen from the sea, 1ts white
buildings being very conspicuous.
Here visitors are shown the spot
where a buccaneer, in connection
with one Of the raids, amused
himself by hurting the nuns over
the edge of the cliff! A strange
amusement for a gallant and chiv-
alrous gentleman-for even pir-
ates claimed to be gentlemen"
in those days.

So Notwithstanding the troci-

slowly getting better!
Formerly, Cartagena was "the
commercial giant of Spain in
South America" but all her glory
has departed. Puerto Colombia
and Barranquillo have surpassed
her. Still, Cartagena's business
men are becoming more wide
awake and enterprising. They
work long hours and seem to be
busy. They have much to learn,
however, and much to forget, be-
fore Cartagena will regain its
place in South America.
