Our political Arithmeticians imagine once in seven Years there is a Revolution of Lives in this Island, that as many die in that Space of Time as perfectly inhabit it; and no doubt the Multitude that dies would soon leave the Place a Desert, did not daily Recruits come over from Great Britain. Scarce a Ship arrives, but has Passengers who design to settle and Servants for Sale. This is a constant Supply and a necessary one; for notwithstanding their Vast Numbers, the Island but slowly settles and I don't know if 5o new Plantations have been made these dozen years. -Charles Leslie, A new and exact account ofJamaica (ca. 1740)
