Thecurrents and the character of the Ioasts render navigation very ditlicult. In the lowcaves in the bluffs, along the coasts on the Silmar side of the channel, the remains ofhuman skeletons have been found in stature much larger than those of the inhal)itantaof this day. Another curiosity of nature is an arch over the Basey Riv. formed bj2 limestone rocks from 34 to 40 ft. high. In front opens a portal 35 ft. in height,through which a portion of the river may be seen. In the wall on the left of an ovalcourt 37 ft. above the water opens a cave 94 ft. deep, at one time forming a largestalactite cavern, now partially destroyed by the ca\ing of the rocks overhead.
