Notes | CAPE ST.MARY was the former name of the Cape point in the city BAKAU in Gambia (in the older literature also Cape St. Mary of Bathurst) The town of Bathurst stands on the east side of St. Mary island, a fertile, but low and swampy spot about 4 miles in length and 2 in breadth. It is described as a prosperous-looking town, with several excellent stone houses, especiallyon the wharf where the houses of the merchants are situated. | |||||
