A visitor to this historic cave at Hatchet Bay, Eleuthera
in the Bahamas, refreshes himself from a natural basin into which cool, clear water has seeped from the cave's roof. The
cave, which is about a mile long, has three levels and is divided up into vast rooms ringed with stalactites and stalagmites
and lofty pillars. (The man in the picture is Don Stewart of Hatchet Bay Plantations, Eleuthera.) News Bureau, Development Board, Nasau, Bahamas.

"Two visitors to this ancient cave at Hatchet Bay,
Eleuthera in the Bahamas pause in their tour of exploration to admire a stalactite and stalagmite which have almost completely
joined to form a pillar. In some such retreat as this the Eleutherian Adventurers, Pilgrim Fathers of the Bahamas, lived and
worshipped when they first landed at Eleuthera to attempt the first permanent settlement of these islands, 300 years ago.

"Indicative of the development in
progress at Governor's Harbour, Eleuthera, Bahamas --- once a remote settlement --- is this scene at the new cottage colony
built by R.T. Symonette of Nassau. Called "Heart's Ease", the attractive guest houses , on Hut Point, a short
distance from Governor's Harbour, look from their terraced hillside upon the magnificent beaches of Eleuthera. Regular
plane service to Governor's Harbour and regular boat service to Hatchet Bay are stimulating interest in the picturesque
Out Island of Eleuthera, where a number of distinguished visitors already have bought property and built homes." News Bureau, Development Board, Nassau, Bahamas.

"It appears to be a photo taken from the porch of the old clinic, which is now the office
for the Bo Hengy. It shows a view of the backyard of the Landing (which you might know as the Picaroon Landing) with a slight
view of the government dock, and of course the bay and harbour. I think this building is still government owned. Sometime
ago the clinic was on the ground floor, and the nurses residence was on the second floor. I don't know who occupied it
before it was a clinic. The building is now occupied by Bahamas Fast Ferries. The doctor's residence is adjacent to this
building but to my knowledge has been vacant for years in need of repair." J.Sawyer,
