Isle of Pines Critique From North Fond du Lac Visitor
William Murray, returning from the Isle of Pines, reports high living costs and poor planter accommodations there. He notes shrubbery covered land, a four year wait for returns, government built roads as the only positive, and few Americans encountered. He met R M Jacks and Mrs Jacks, who deem the island unsuitable for Americans. Marshfield investors dispute glowing reports, claiming rich land despite Murray's cautions.
