Pagina iii - SOCIETY desire it to be understood that they are not answerable for any opinions or observations that may appear in the Society's publications; the Editors of the several Works being alone responsible for the same.
Pagina 117 - The second day the English still battered them in file, and refusing to board them upon equal terms, kept them at a bay but half cannon distance, until they found some of them disordered and foul one against another, whom they presently boarded with their frigates (appointed to watch that opportunity) and took...
Pagina 269 - Our men fall sick very fast every day, having at present on board this ship upwards of eighty sick men, and some of them very dangerously, which we hear is generally through the whole fleet alike, proportionable to the number of men on board; so that we shall be constrained to send a considerable number unto Ipswich for their recovery ; where there is room enough for them and good accommodation, as we understand by a letter from Dr. Whistler lately come to our hands, to whom we have written that...
Pagina 184 - Resolution and had much ado to weather her, at which time the very heavens were obscured by smoke, the air rent with the thundering noise, the sea all in a breach with the shot that fell, the ships even trembling and we hearing everywhere messengers of death flying; eight or ten sail of his ships not being able to weather us forsook their fleet.
Pagina 200 - ... already answered as to the material things therein. The same day also came Colonel Goffe, Major Bourne and Captain Hatsell, and seven ships-of-war, with eleven victuallers and water-ships in their company. What their lading particularly is we cannot as yet give you an account; but so soon as it comes to our hands, we shall communicate it unto you, which we hope will be by the next; only this we have in general, that there are 140 barrels of powder in the Samuel merchant, and 172 in the John and...
Pagina 158 - At daylight espied the enemy's fleet, consisting of about ninety sail ; they kept the wind : we made all haste by getting anchors up, and sailing to them. Proving little wind, it was eleven in the morning ere we came to engagement at a distance ; two or three hours after, more closely. My admiral (the blue), Lawson, with myself and rear-admiral, were closely engaged (with some others): after that, the general, and admiral of the white, came to a close engagement. Sunk three or four. All the night...
Pagina 85 - Lawson, who, with his second, came very well off and all his squadron (being the Blue), both with safety and honour. And now, the wind bearing about to the Eastward, the enemy takes the advantage and comes with his whole power and engages sharply for two hours, till ours had recovered the weather gage again, and then he endeavoured to keep all as close together as he could, that he might make the best of his way without loss, dreading our great ships. His design was our frigates would leave them...
Pagina 85 - Solebay and standing along our own shore, we espied, about noon, two galliot-hoys that were upon scout from the enemy : to which several of our frigates gave chase and stood very near their whole fleet ; and then returning to our own, made the usual sign upon the discovery of a fleet. So the alarm went through the whole fleet, who stood towards them ; but, the weather proving hazy and dark, we lost sight of the enemy and stopped upon the tide again, expecting the coming out of those ships with General...
Pagina 279 - Interreg. xxxviii. 22.] found him in a very weak condition, full of pain both in his head and left side, which had put him into a fever, besides the anguish he endures by the gravel in his kidneys, insomuch as he takes no rest night nor day but continues groaning very sadly.
Pagina 74 - ... distinguish the one from the other. One of the Dutch admirals was blown up, and three or four more sunk, as we are informed, but cannot hear that any of our own ships were lost in the engagement ; blessed be the Lord ! We are at this time very fair by them, and shall endeavour our utmost to engage, so soon as we can. It hath pleased the Lord to take away Major-General Deane in this encounter ; an honest and able servant to this commonwealth. He was slain by a great shot. In this engagement, we...
