They would be quartered either forward or aft on the main deck. They would carry aboard with them all kinds of small packages. Some would have small boxes of chickens or pig- eons, and some little old sawbuck-fashioned folding beds covered with canvas. As soon as inspected by the doctor for trachoma each negro would 162 THE PANAMA CANAL select the most favorable spot, gather his furniture around him, and settle down in one place, there to remain almost without moving during the whole of the 40-...hour trip across the Caribbean. When the water was fine and the sailing smooth the first cabin passengers might conclude that they were carrying a negro camp meeting. On the other hand, if the weather were bad and the sea rough, a sicker lot of people nowhere might be found. One of the favorite negro preventives of seasick- ness is St. Thomas bay rum applied liberally to the face, although to the on-looker it never seems to prevent or cure a single case.
Before landing at Colon every one of these negroes had to be vaccinated.
