PORT FRICHIES—PORT AND MONASTERY OF MAURONA—PORT AND VILLAGE
OF CHIONE-ANOAI—PORT SCHOENUS.
ON the following day we took leave of our hospitable
friends at Oxoai, and rode on mules, in forty-five minutes,
to the port of Frichies, passing through fields of flax and
corn spotted with olives. Frichies is a tolerable port, and
would contain a great number of vessels during the preva-
lence of any wind, except from the south-east. It is, how-
ever, secure for a few ships in all weathers. The plate re-
presents its appearance, and the few habitations on the
shore. We hired a boat from Frichies, and sailed with a
fine wind to the port and monastery of Maurona, where the
priest welcomed us with great hospitality.
The monastery is seated on a point, behind which is a.
very excellent port for small vessels. We sent our boat.
