Notes: | Label source: We have been approached by a nutmeg and mace shipper of Granada to supply information to a new manager they are sending out shortly to their estates and we have pointed out to him certain defects in the West Indian Nutmeg in comparison with, the type grown in the East Indies. Asking for an interview proposing to call with the Estate manager Mr Humphrey, and explain further the defects we would like to overcome. |
