Note 281 — {92} Sixthly and lastly,
Reading edition
“The mountains and rocky hills are richly furnished with mines of lead, silver, copper, tin, and divers sorts of minerals, branching out even to their summits; where, in small crannies, you may meet with threds of perfect silver: yet have the English no maw to open any of them;” and so forth.—Josselyn’s Voyages, p. 44.
