West India Customs and Manners: Containing Strictures on the Soil, Cultivation, Produce, Trade, Officers, and Inhabitants: with the Method of Establishing, and Conducting a Sugar Plantation. To which is Added, the Practice of Training New Slaves. By J. B. Moreton, Esq. A New Edition

AS I understand you intend to go shortly to Jamaica, and I presume an entire stranger to the nature of that climate and the people thereof, 1 think. it a duty incumbent on me to give you some instructions and advice respecting both; I shall speak from experience, for I was five years in that island; and should what I shall offer, prove any way instrumental in promoting your happiness, I shall hereafter feel a secret fatisfaction for having employed a few vacant hours so well.

After your departue, you probably will be sea sick for a few days; 1 am sorry thju I never could learn any cure for that nauseous difagreeable malady but to eat and drink, and to walk the deck
