Admiral Ohier had given orders for a survey of the mouths of the different branches of the Yamato and Aji rivare, as well as the coast be tween the two. The Ajikawa is the river at whose embouchure are the terrible bar, and the

There are two jetties at fakai, running for s considerable distance'into the sea, which act a breakwaters and between them a large deep artificial harbour is formed
