Richard Bridgens.Interior of a Boiling-House; 鈥楾he juice of the cane is conveyed in pipes from the mill to the boiling house; where it is converted into sugar. Here it is passed through a succession of coppers gradually increasing in heat At each copper a Negro is placed to take off the scum as it rises; and when the temperature of that vessel has had its full effect; to remove it with a ladle into the next. at the fourth copper is staioned the most experienced person When he perceives that the boiling has been carried sufficiently far; the fire is removed; and the contents conducted by a spout to the coolers.Image taken from West India Scenery; with illustrations of negro character; the process of making sugar; &c. from sketches taken during a voyage to; and residence of seven years in; the island of Trinidad.
