and ships as Pirats or sinck by their side And in the interim of this discourse the Swallow was come to Anchor on her broad side and then Captain Brooks desired me to certifie so much in writing to Captain Burley and while I went into the Cabine to write the Fellowship had cut her Cable and was under saile intending to run a shoare and being informed thereof by the Master we came out and I commanded the Gunner to give fire to a peece of Ordnance the which was done but within a Cable length the Fellowship came aground and in pursuit of her we cut and also came aground a little ahead of her and then I gave her two peeces of Ordnance whereupon Captain Burley appeared on the Poope and cried Captain hold hold then I commanded him a board who when he came told me he would deliver up the ship if I would promise on the faith of a Gentleman to set the Commanders and ships company on shoare or give them a double shallop to carry them to Bristol the which if I refused to doe he had left those on board would set the ship on fire then I replied unto him that burne she should for I was resolved not to part with any one man of them for I valued them more then I did the ship but in the meane time I had sent a letter to the Master ships company that if they would deliver up the other two Captains with their ship I did promise them all a free entertainment and that they should have their wages paid and all such goods as they could make appeare justly to belong to any of them upon the receipt of which letter the Master and Marriners did deliver up the ship without the losse or hurt of any one man God be praised only when the Hart Frigot parted from us to run a shoare we gave her an unhappy shot and killed two men and hurt one but Captain Nesson who commanded in her carried her eight miles up the River and ran her a shoare in a Creek but she was pursued by Captain Rew Williams and there was exchanged divers shot between them but Nesson ran away with most of his men and left her and the next day Captain Williams brought her off in which service the Gentleman doth crave his Lordships Protection Having perfected this service the next day I set sayle in pursuit of my Admirall to acquaint him with our proceedings and also that Bristoll was lost and the fleet is now repairing there to command out fleet wherein Sir Iohn Pennington is to come out Admirall that so we might use our best endeavours to nip these proceedings in the bud and having acquainted my Admirall herewith it is agreed on that forthwith we repaire to Milford to endeavour to get our ships want of victualls supplyed the which if we shall doe I hope God will enable us to perform some good service in the preventing of the comming out of that fleet either by inviting them to comply with us or else to destroy them in the Harbour And this is my Admiralls and our constant resolution if it shall please God to enable us with victualls to subsist on this Coast to which I doubt not but our God will give a blessing in that he hath been pleased to give such good successe in the surprising of one of their best ships as also the Friggot the which is a great encouragement to us and doubtlesse as great a disheartning unto them who seek their King and Countreys ruine endeavouring to upheld that Antichristian beast whom God hath said Must down to whose protection I commit you and take my leave and rest From aboard his Majesties Ship the Swallow making sayle for Milford Aug. 17. 1643.
