In my excursion I met but few people. On returning to the main street I found the greater part of the population busied in drying, salting, and putting on board codfish, their chief export.
Pendant mon excursion, je rencontrai peu d'habitants; en revenant de la rue commerçante, je vis la plus grande partie de la population occupée à sécher, saler et charger des morues, principal article d'exportation.
