Travels in Peru and Mexico

S. S. Hill is something of a biographical and literary mystery. Hill was also notable for the sheer breadth of his travels, which included not only South America, but also Italy and Turkey, Siberia and the Baltic region, the Pacific and the Middle East. The men were seen, some endeavouring to steady themselves by grasping whatever lay in their way, others aiding the ladies, of whom a great part, losing their consciousness, had fallen to the ground, or into arms almost as powerless as their own; while many ran screaming into the streets, where the alarm was still greater than in the hall. The bay is open towards the north-west, but is well protected from the north-east to the south-west, at which latter point the swell of the ocean is broken off by the promontory of Coromilla, which unites with the higher lands that protect the port on the south and east
