When we difeovered that every exertion to get off would prove ineffectual •i-.n] a very heavy sea breaking over the vessel, it was thought adwfable to. endeavor to reach the f w(e as loon as poffifcle, which was about a. mile •'.(.hat, and at the fame time to secure about i3oo’dollars in fpccie,.which was on board, if prafticahle after much trouble vye fuccceded • n getting the money on board the boat, in which entered with the firft mate and four hands, and fcv'uieatciy landed at 10 o’clock in the morning. The hands returned twice afterwards in the boat ;n d procured such articles as were neceffnry for our Vultenauce, and such materials as would be u.t fi.l in cnl'e of departing from the island in the boa;, and bringing with them the remainder of the crew. On Friday the lith Sept, owing to ..hi rsiifcpndudi of two of my fiarnen (Thomas Burton and James M‘Millan) who endeavored by their persuasive arguments to. contaminate the remainder of the crew by advitsng a coalition to t-ob me of the 8000 dollars, I became fearful that fr,. v .• evil consequences would ensue, and advised Mr. J. Auftm, firft officer, and Mr. Henry Sta ples, fecund officer, to depart with these two rrn, and two otheis for the main land of the Jtlaiid of Cuba, which they did in the small ■boat, the fame day. On Monday the 13th, the fmail boat not having returned, I was ap prehensive that they had been detained, or that t ’- y had collected a number of the inhabitants to ran;ji with them and deprive me of the money, 3 sd very probably of my life, therefore raffily resolved to equip the long boat as well as time and • cirtumftancss would admit of, placed the money, and feme articles which I judged to be c'frrvice to me, on bo Ad, and departed from Key Blanco, (enirufting myfelf and proper, as property of owners, to die proteftion of Di tine Providence) with a mulatto boy of nine teen years oi age, and a young lad, ten years old—leaving on the Ivey four persons j captain Owner Calhoun, passenger; Henry Miller, Gerard Bryant, and Ambrose Croach, fearnen, who under the supposition of the return of the fnjp hpat the ensuing morning, consented to remain. After being at the mercy of the wind and waves for three days in the long boat, and feeirrg feveval fail of vessel , none of which paid any attention to us, judging us (as we supposed) to be a privateer. We fell in with the brig ■S ren, capt. Sulger, for Philahelphia, from Kmgfton, bound to that port, in lat. 22,48, Cape Antonio bearing S. W. about 14 leagues diftarvt, who offered me every aflifiance in his power, by taking every mticle out of the long boat, and receiving me with the greeted cordial ity on board.
