LA MANCHE TO CAPE RACE An extent of coast of about 20 miles, embracing several small fishing settlements. The coast is very rugged, and has been rather remarkable for shipwrecks. Clam Cove in this section is remarkable for its being the burying place of those lost in the unfortunate steamship Anglo-Saxon. Distant from La Manche to Cape Race, 20 miles. Population 14. |
