My hospitable friend, Mr. William Hinton, is the only islander who works sugar successfully at the Torreao. The large rival mill with the tall regulation smoke-stack near the left mouth of the Ribeira de Sao' Joao, though inscribed 'Omnia vincit improbus labor, and though provided with the most expensive modern appliances, is understood not to be a success for the Companhia Fabril d'Assucar.
Beyond it lay the foot-hills of gloomy trap leading to the Jebel el-Raydan, a typical granitic form, a short demi-pique saddleback with inwards-sloping pommel like the Pao d'Assucar of picturesque Rio de Janeiro. Here as elsewhere, the granites run parallel with and seaward of the traps.
