Modern maps and an cient charts were pored over, as well as the old documents, hand-written in faded ink on time-yellowed paper, and at the end of half an hour he an nounced that the next fish he caught would be on either the Bull or the Calf—the two islets of the lagoon of Chiriqui, on one or the other of which Terres averred the lay. “I'l catch tonight's train for New Orleans!” Francis announced him.
