haven, we landed, and went presently to the town and to the town-house;
where we found a judge sitting in judgment, being associated with three
other officers, upon three negroes that had conspired the burning of
the town. Both which judges and prisoners we took, and brought them
a-shipboard, and caused the chief judge to write his letter to the town
to command all the townsmen to avoid, that we might safely water there.
Which being done, and they departed, we ransacked the town; and in one
house we found a pot, of the quantity of a bushel, full of reals of
plate, which we brought to our ship. And here one Thomas Moon, one of
our company, took a Spanish gentleman as he was flying out of the
town; and, searching him, he found a chain of gold about him, and other
jewels, which he took, and so let him go. At this place our General,
among other Spaniards, set ashore his Portugal pilot which he took at
the islands of Cape Verde out of a ship of St. Mary port, of Portugal.
And having set them ashore we departed hence, and sailed to the island
of Canno; where our General landed, and brought to shore his own ship,
and discharged her, mended and graved her, and furnished our ship with
water and wood sufficiently.

And while we were here we espied a ship and set sail after her, and took
her, and found in her two pilots and a Spanish governor, going for the
islands of the Philippinas. We searched the ship, and took some of her
merchandises, and so let her go. Our General at this place and time,
thinking himself, both in respect of his private injuries received from
the Spaniards, as also of their contempts and indignities offered to our
country and prince in general, sufficiently satisfied and revenged; and
supposing that her Majesty at his return would rest contented with this
service, purposed to continue no longer upon the Spanish coast, but
began to consider and to consult of the best way for his country.
