the fellows proved very honest and diligent after they were
mastered, and had their properties set apart for them. I sent
them also from the Brazils five cows, three of them being big with
calf, some sheep, and some hogs; which, when I came again, were
considerably increased. ,

But all these things, with an account how three hundred Carib-

. bees came and invaded them, and ruined their plantations, and how

they fought with that whole number twice, and were at first de-
feated and three of them killed; but at last a storm destroying
their enemy’s canoes, they famished or destroyed almost all the
rest, and renewed and recovered the possession of their plantation,
and still lived upon the island :

All these things, with some very surprising incidents in some
new adventures of my own, for ten years more, I may perhaps give
a further account of hereafter.
