Excerpt from The Chase of De Wet: And Other Later Phases of the Boer War as Seen by an American Correspondent

The good ship scot, still, I believe, holder of the record between The Needles and Green Point, drew alongside her dock at Cape Town, on her fourth outward voyage from England, on the morning of Wednesday, April 24, 1900, seventeen days out from Southampton. No one who loves the sea can re gret an hour spent in those pleasant waters that lie between Cape Finisterre and the Cape of Good Hope. \ve had touched at Madeira, that ill-kept, picturesque garden Spot, sunning itself so smilingly in the lovely summer sea, and had Spent a few boisterous hours bumping over the greasy cobble-stones of Funchal in palanquins drawn by diminutive bullocks and rest ing on primitive runners, in deference to the local Portuguese prejudice against wheels. Putting out to sea again, with course shaped due south to round Cape de Verde, we had gazed in awe next day at the noble peak of Teneriffe, rising sheer out of the sea to its majestic height of feet. We caught our first glimpse of it in the dawn, and not until late in the afternoon did it flash its last greeting to us from its gleaming pinnacle. And as the ship cleaved her placid way through the tropics and across the line.
