 The next place is Cape Pine. .\s t,, this, the s„jv^,r.||,,n fir improvement 
 is more nnaniliinn.s and emphatic. ,\t the present Tnetiient. f'nfte Pine has no 
 fo<r-sitrnal. All Init one of the captains who were examined on this rimfe 
 express mi st nnlicsitaliiiply the ahs.iTnte necessity of a ffeoil siLtinl at this poitit. 
 Too much enipha-is cannot he piveii to their deinatnls : ,,n no other itiippive- 
 ment is there mere coneiirrerce of epinioii. As is stated elsewhere, the siren 
 or whistle is most appn>ved of for fo(--si)inals. Xor Is the lisht here approved 
 of. It is at present a lixid lijiht anil lacks snih'cient power. Seme seven or 
 eight say that this licht is insufficient aiul would havi it m.ire p.overfnl and ati 
 oectiltinp or flash-lipht if pessihle (pai:cs I'M. 10:{. 121. 12:->. l.-.s. If,.-,. 1T:J).

 way. The s,irae may be .-aid of the siRiial. A, il-ewhiTc, a flash light and a 
 siren would he the best. 
 
 There is another siippestion about Capt. Kay. The lifiht at Port Basque, 
 a httlc to the last, is viry weak and of no use, wliilo the Tapp Hav lif-lit it-ilf 
 beinft rather too inuoh to the west, makes soiiie ehnnu-c. advisable! The Port 
 Basque light might be made stronger or else the Cape liav light itself mi"ht 
 be moved a little ,s<,ulli and plaeed on lluek Island; or another light pnt",.!! 
 Durk Islan.l. Any of these alterations would seem to mi.t the wants of those 
 who navigate this eoast ([mges i04, 121, If.O, Kid, 1S4), 
 
 Then, too, the signal at Cape Hay is denouneed as verv poor, and a new 
 one— a good siren or whistle— should be plaeed here without delay (puges 14 
 31, .16, 14-), 173, 1Y8). ^ 
 
 In any ease a signal at Port Basque is suggested (pages 2,5, 1(10) It will 
 also be observed (page 121) that the Port Basque light is a red flash and utterly 
 useless. As stated elsewhere, red flashes anywhere are <-ondemned. 
 
 .\fter Cape Bay couKS the Bird Rooks (pages IS 31 3" 45 J><> 403 i3r, 
 1130, Hltl, 173 178, 192, 21!». I, is a fixe.l light here, and 'a yiy ,'K,o7one at' 
 that. It IS only on aeeouiit of the eseellent soundings about the Bird Boeks that 
 vessels are enabled to pass here with no ereal( r danger than they do The refer- 
 enee shows that this light should be a lla-h light and at the same time eonsider- 
 
 ably ,nerea.o,l in po.er. Th,.n the sig 1,, re is y.-ry had. It i, a gun fired 
 
 at very long inten-al.s. It should 1- replaeed by a good siren or horn 
 
 20, 
 
 TO, 84, nn, 100, 101), 
 
 (3) ANTrcosTi. 
 
 The references are pages 7, 12. 20. 2(;. .^o. 0} 11 
 I-'O, 132, 142, 153, 1(14, 171, 180, 183, mii. 
 
 It will here be seen that siMeen u.asters t^•,„ s, the Avun^-t desire for a 
 fnrtlier light on the Island. It appears that Irea'h Point Light, bein" the onlv 
 one at die eastern point of the Isbinil, is ton tnueh iirnund to the soulh-wesi 
 Somelbing tnore urgently wantol to enable niavitiors to round this eoast more 
 easily from the , ^rth. One or two Higg, -t. as ,1 re.nedy for this, a light-house 
 o., some high lana up towards Fo,: Bav. The great maioritv, however, wonhl 
 slronely prefer a light-ship anehored ofl^ IToalli Point, in fiou, tweetv to forty 
 fathoms of water wliieh would plaee it from throe to ten uiihs front the shore. 
 1 Ins would benefit them when rounding from either direction.
