Well was it named the “Golden” Seville. Old archives of Jamatca refer to it as “a magnificent placc, boasting much luxury.” The English historian, Bryan Edwards, foremost authority on the West Indies, wrote that “it contained a palace, a monastery, a cathedral, a theatre and a paver ment a mile long.” It was thus probably America’s first paved clty and the frat to have a theatre, Unlike earlier settlements Ife 2 San Domingo, &., the ¢ A Seville was on a& The New World's {sland whose native Indian Arawaks) were now “Wonder City.” only peaceful and kindly inclined toward the Spare y worked as thelr sere the city was made easy, s now the town of St, Anna a Glorie’ district, resort of r and Canada, | One Year.. . + $8.50 | One Year... | One Month 80} Ona Month, aswel ee | NO. 8—THE “LOST CITY” OF GOLDEN SEVILLE.
