Description
Bessie
Dawe
talks
about
how they would
row
from
Seldom-Come-By
to the
Cape
down
by
Tilting
to
fish.
Lewis
Payne
describes
how they would
row
from the
Town
of
Fogo
to
Copper
Island
,
past
Change
Island
, in
order
to
cut
firewood
as there
is
no
wood
near
the
Town
of
Fogo.
Once
when
Lewis
was
out
with
other
men
to
get
wood
on
Copper
Island
, they
pitched
a
tent
which
caught
fire
and
burned
,
leaving
them with
no
supplies.
To
find
a
boat
to
get
over
to
Change
Island
where
Lewis
had a
sister
required
walking
eleven
miles.
They then
rowed
across
to the
Town
of
Fogo
but
it
was
too
rough
to
get
into the
harbour
,
forcing
them to
row
to
Payne's
Harbour
(which
is
now
considered
a
part
of
Island
Harbour
but was
once
its
own
community).
From
Payne's
Harbour
the
men
walked
to the
Town
of
Fogo.
