FLOUR CASK,
As it is locally termed, is a small bay running north and south, being the nearest indentation to the Southwest Cape : Stewart Point forms its South Head. There is a safe and snug retreat for small craft on the west side, as I had occasion to experience. The Land is steep and poor, covered with low scrub. Timber : None. — This bay is frequented by sealers in the season, there being a seal rookery at the Southwest Cape, to which there is a- track overland from this bight. Fish are plentiful at certain seasons. Resebve. — I would recommend a reserve of 50 acres round the boat harbor, as per Bketch. '
