Abstract
I beg leave to give you this trouble, and to add some conjectures, which may be a kind of addition to Dr. Cleghorn's Account of this Island. I live near the square within the castle. A little beyond the square is our hospital. My attendance at these two places gives me no more than a salutary exercise. The artificers in the civil branch of the ordnance, who are under my care, live near me in the remains of the town of St. Philip. I call them remains, because many of the houses were destroyed during the late siege, and many since; it being determined, that the town shall be removed to a greater distance from the castle. A new spot is accordingly marked out near English Cove, on the side of the harbour; and barracks for two regiments, together with some houses, are already built.
