It became too rough afterwards to make the return journey, and it was only this morning we saw them repassing towards the south-east in a terrible sea. A four-oared curagh with two men in her besides the rowers probably the Priest and the Doctor went first, followed by the three-oared curagh from the south island, which ran more danger.
Near the middle of the sound the man who was rowing in the bow broke his oar-pin, and the proper management of the canoe became a matter of some difficulty. We had only a three-oared curagh, and if the sea had gone much higher we should have run a good deal of danger.
In other countries where the names are in a somewhat similar condition, as in modern Greece, the man's calling is usually one of the most common means of distinguishing him, but in this place, where all have the same calling, this means is not available. Late this evening I saw a three-oared curagh with two old women in her besides the rowers, landing at the slip through a heavy roll.
