Cited Quotation |
[Between Cappahayden and Peter's River] Trees are almost non-existent except in the most sheltered of places; the only vegetation, other than grass, is made up of small, stunted dwarf-trees, usually blasted on their seaward sides, to which the dialect terms "cronnick" and "starrigan" are given. |
