11. El Progreso Plantation of Rogerio Alvarado, San Cristóbal, Galápagos

Description:
This photograph from the Historic Archive of Guayas shows workers harvesting cane. Although the image is dated to between 1900 and 1909, it must have been taken after 1904, and as ownership is attributed to Rogerio Alvarado, it may have been taken in 1909 after he had assumed control.

14. Earthen Canal Connected to Large Water Cistern 2017

Description:
A large basin formed by slightly depressed land is located directly to the north of the sugar processing area. The area can become inundated during heavy rains, and may have been connected to the sugar processing area by an earthen canal, portions of which are still visible under the thick vegetation.

15. The Hacienda Sugar Mill in 1905

Description:
This image affords a rare view of the entire sugar mill infrastructure shortly after Cobos' death. The view is toward the west from the upper floor of the Hacienda House. The smokestack is barely visible against the horizon toward the middle of the frame. It appears in Las Islas Encantada o el Archipielago de Colon (Bognoly and Epinoza 1905:137).

16. Dutch Oven or Fire Box and Boiler 2017

Description:
The boilers, one of the two preserved examples which is located to the rear at right, were combined with supporting structures that housed externally fed combustion chambers. Variously referred to as dutch ovens or fire boxes they were large enough to completely combust bagasse fuel.

17. HRT Fire Tube Boiler 2017

Description:
This intact boiler, one of the two preserved examples, provided the necessary steam required to operate the press engine and other processing equipment. The holes on the end plates suggest that the steam was supplied by a system of horizontal return tubular (HRT) fire tube boilers. Each opening was connected by a horizontal tube to its counterpart on the opposite end. Heat was conducted from the externally-fired dutch oven through each tube via a flue on the back end of the combustion chamber. The multiple tubes created a large surface area for heating the surrounding water within the sealed boiler. At least 114 openings can be counted on one intact boiler end. Deerr (1911:404) calculated that a seven foot diameter boiler with 120 tubes can supply 1800 ft² of heating surface.

19. Water Cisterns

Description:
A large in-ground water retention basin background), measuring approximately 16x9 m and constructed of thick volcanic rock and marine sand mortar walls over 1 m wide and 2 to 3 m high, dominates the northern end of the mill area. An opening at the bottom of the deepest corner of the basin transferred water into a smaller and deeper adjoining water reservoir (foreground) with a metal tube drain imbedded in its west wall. The smaller reservoir is located close to the stone wall with a tunneled flue connected to the smokestack.
