This part of the island is subdivided in the nutmeg beds A through D, but there is no key. The numbers noted indicate the number of 'souls', i.e. the number of slaves that were deemed necessary to work the nutmeg plantation in question.
The water depths are given all along the coast.
Top right the village of Waijer is depicted, with an anchor shown off the coast.
