I remembered Dampier as a handsome, strong young fellow of scholarly tastes, with an aversion to work and a marked indifference to many of the things that the world cares for, including wealth, of which, however, he had inherited enough to put him beyond the reach of want. Dampier also, in the same year, says that a man in a morning's walk might kill six or seven dozen of these doves. |
