Pitcairn's Island and the Islanders of 1850
by Walter Brodie
[Mr. Brodie did not bother much with paragraphs. I have inserted
my own to provide some relief for the reader.
Nor did he divide the book into chapters so the following divisions
and descriptions are my own.
In all cases, H.M.S. Britain should be H.M.S. Briton.]
