Jamaica (a native word) was discovered by Columbus in 1494. It is an island in the Caribbean Sea, ninety miles south of Cuba. It first became a Spanish colony, but in 1655 Oliver Cromwell decided to make it a place to keep the British slaves taken from Africa. Even to-day, while slavery of that direct kind, at least, has long been out, ninety-three per centum of the Jamaican population are still negroes.
