  • Blue Mountain Peak
    Blue Mountain Peak DAVID CHARITY T he road ahead looked awfully steep, and was deeply rutted. 'You've got to take it fast.' A friendly voice belonging to a native of Hagley's Gap volunteered, from over his garden fence- 'Take a good run at it, and you'll be OK.' [ considered his advice. Two Americans in an Opel had got stuck after only a few metres and were already deep in negotiation with representatives of the local youth about the cost of a push. I decided to give them 10 minutes to get well ahead, and retired for a smoke and a think. [ had left Ocho Rios at 10.15 in the morning of 27 August 1986, destination the summit of Blue Mountain Peak, at 225 6m the high point of the Blue Mountain range and of all Jamaica, although only some 24km from downtown Kingston. The road had so far taken me along the coast to Port Maria and Port Amolto, past the island homes of Noel Coward and [an Fleming, then inland over the mountain divide to the pass at Hardwar Gap, forking left to Silverhill Gap. I had picked up a solitary pedestrian who claimed to have an aunt in Peterborough, and who claimed to have been to the top of Blue Mountain Peak many times. 'The road goes almost the whole way to the top these days', he assured me. This seemed disappointing if true, for it would deny me a decent mountain walk. He left me at the fork where [ turned left for Silverhill gap.

Wellcome Library for the History and Understanding of Medicine INTRODUCTION. - - •••• •••• When practical arrangements for the representation of the Colonies at the Exhibition were being made, the West Indian industries were in a state of considerable depression, and it was doubtful whether any such appearance could be made as would be entirely satisfactory in itself or pleasurable to remember. But the encouragement given by His Boyal Highness the Prince of Wales, who is ever ready to view with kindly consideration all the efforts towards progress made in any portion of the outlying dominions of his mother, the Queen- Empress, induced the West India Colonies to come to the front, and to avail themselves of that which might be truly called the opportunity of a century.
