CHAP. IIII. Relations and Remembrances, taken out of a large Iournall of a Voyage, set forth by the East Indian Societie, wherein were employed, the Iames, the Anne, the New-yeeres Gift, the Bull, and the Bee; written by IOHN HATCH, Ma∣ster of the Bee, and after in the New-yeeres Gift; and lastly, came home in the Iames.

THe fift of March, 1616. we set saile from the Downes. The seuen and twentieth [ 10] 1617. we saw the Canaries.* 1.1 Aprill the tenth, we met the Tornadas in sixe degr. From thence to the twentieth, wee obserued a Current setting to the North. The thirtieth, the Tornadas left vs, in latitude thirtie minutes North, longitude three hundred and fiftie degrees fifteene minutes, that night we crossed the Line. Iune the one and twentieth,* 1.2 we came to anchor in Soldania Bay, accompanyed with the Gift and the Bull, hauing lost our Admirall and Vice-Admirall the night before, by fogs and hazie weather.* 1.3 They came in the next day. There we found riding the Hound, where∣in was Master William Iourdaine. Here we could get no refreshing for our sicke men, wherefore on the first of Iuly, some were sent to march vp into the Countrey to get prouision, which they did (without losse of any, onely two hurt) in great abundance. The thirteenth, wee set saile [ 20] from the Bay.* 1.4 August the thirteenth, we anchored in the Road of Molala. The seuenteenth, we had both our Cables cut with the Rocks. The eighteenth, we set saile from thence.

The fiue and twentieth, in latitude at noone foure degrees fortie foure minutes, longitude fiftie three degrees fiue minutes by iudgement, we found our selues hindred by some Current: at sixe in the euening the water was changed white,* 1.5 and at seuen as white as any Whay, which made the Skie also white and hazie. This night we sounded often and had no ground: thus the water continued all night in the strangest manner that euer I saw,* 1.6 vntill the day light did alter it. It so continued together with the Current: the sixe and seuen and twentieth was but little whi∣tish, and the Current also forsooke vs. The fourth of September, we passed by Socatra, but came not within sight by reason of the Monson, lest it should be done before we came to Surat. Wee [ 30] found in the foure dayes before that,* 1.7 by helpe of a Current, the ship had passed three score leagues more then otherwise shee could haue run; which now left vs. The seuenth, a leake sprung in the Admirall (which Master Copeland, their Minister, hath with much feeling related how dange∣rous,* 1.8 either by villanie or negligence of the Shpwrights, as after appeared, when they came to careene her▪ being a great hole slightly stopped, and much hazarding ship, goods and men: they had none other meane there in deepe water to stop it, but by stitching a Bonet or piece of a saile full of Ockam or calking stuffe, which by force of the water running into the ship, being haled downe to the place, was sucked and forced in, and so stayed the leake till it selfe decayed in time, then the leake renewing, and againe stop∣ped: which in the careening was found and remedied.) On the eleuenth, it was stopped. The twelfth, we tooke a Portugall ship which came from Mosambeek, laden principally with Ele∣phants [ 40] teeth, and bound for Diu.

In the sixteenth, we saw two Iunks, one of them chased by two Ships, which were the Fran∣cis and the Lion, Ships set forth by () The Iunke they chased was the Grtat Mo∣gols Mothers, of the burthen of twelue or fourteene hundred Tunnes, hauing in her aboue a thousand persons, and nine and twentie Tunne of siluer (some report more a great deale) wee chased the Chasers, and in the euening came vp vnto them with the Bee and the Gift, and so sa∣ued the Iunke, with whom and her two Chasers, we anchored on the twentieth, betweene the Riuer of Surat and the Barre of Swally.* 1.9

The thirteenth of March, wee weighed: the fifteenth at night, wee anchored to the South west of Damon.* 1.10 The seuenteenth, the Anne departed from vs to the * 1.11 Red Sea. The seuen and [ 50] twentieth, 1618. wee espyed many sailes and fetched them vp with the Bee, being fiue and twentie saile (fourteene sale of Frigats men of Warre, eleuen of Merchants the Molucca fleet) and two great Gallies of Goa, which exchanged some shot with vs, but assoone as they could cleare themselues from vs, went away: and being so farre off at Sea, they all escaped vs, not without great trouble, in three Vessels, whence they heaued Chists and other things ouer-boord, to make roome for their Oares, and eight of them got into Cochin, the rest to Goa.

The nine and twentieth, came aboord a Boat with one Woman and foure Men from the King of Calecut. The Woman was interpreter and spake Portuguise. Aprill the first, we came to an∣chor two miles to the North of the Road of Bring Iohn.* 1.12 About two leagues to the North of Brim Iohn is a red Cliffe, and to the South of it a low sandie shore, and the next high Land or [ 60] Cliffe is within a mile of the Road of Brim Iohn, where on the second wee anchored. Master Coytmore and I agreed the next day with the Gouernour for fortie Rialls to water there, and se∣uentie men were landed to guard the watering place for feare of poysoning; for they are trea∣cherous people, which also came armed the next day very strong, and would not permit vs vn∣der twentie Rialls more.

Page 619

The twelfth of Aprill, we had much adoe (the Current setting vs right on the Iland of Zelon, halfe a league from Cape de Galia) to double it with tacking off and on that night.* 1.13 The thir∣teenth, the Generall came aboord the Gift, and established mee Master of her. The fourteenth, the Bee departed from vs for the Coast of Coromandell. The sixe and twentieth, we were neere the Southerly Iland of Nicobar. The nine and twentieth, wee anchored on the Mayne of Su∣matra, the high Hill Lambre (by some called Pedire) bearing South South east halfe East from vs, and the East point of Achen Road West by North halfe North, foure leagues and hale off. The King his Courtiers with his Women were there on hunting, who the next day sent his Chop by the Sabander and William Nicholas, our chiefe Factor there: at whose parting wee gaue [ 10] twentie pieces of Ordnance to honour the Kings presence and his Women, which was well ta∣ken, and went the same night neerer to Achen: and anchored the first of May, a little to the West of the Court.

The tenth of Iune, wee weighed to goe for Teco, but with foule weather were put backe a∣gaine. The nineteenth, we againe set saile. The fourth of August, we came to an anchor in the Road of Teco. The first of September, we set saile for Bantam, where on the two and twentieth we anchored. On the fiue and twentieth, arriued there the French Pinnasse from Iambe, on the Coast of Sumatra. On the thirtieth, came in the Vnicorne from Musulpatan. The fourth of O∣ctober, we set faile for Iaquatra, and then anchored on the sixt; and thence againe on the twen∣tieth to Bantam, with the Iames, Vnicorne and Bee. The seuen and twentieth, the Iames had her leake brake out againe, which did increase by report two foot water in a glasse,* 1.14 and fiue foot in [ 20] hold before they knew of it. The eight and twentieth, they stitched a Bonnet with Ockam, and haled it vnder her, which hauing beene there a quarter of an houre, the leake stopped, so that the water increased not aboue halfe an inch in an houre. They resolued to careene her, and we hasted to get out our Ordnance and Prouisions. The twelfth o Nouember, shee was in like case, and men were sent from euery ship to pump her (and haling the Bonnet againe to her keele, shee was thight as before) at the Iland where shee was to be careened.

The fifteenth, the Rose anchored at Palamban point from Teco. The nineteenth, foure Ships out of England, the Moone, the Cloue, the Samson, and the Pepper-corne;* 1.15 Sir Thomas Dale and Captaine Iourdaine being both in the Cloue; the Sunne being lost at the Iland of Inganio, and the Globe lost their companie betweene the Cape of Good Hope and Saint Laurence. They had most [ 30] of their men sicke at their arriuall. The eight and twentieth, they anchored by vs at the Iland, being in all thirteene saile, the Iames, Gift, Vnicorne, Cloue, Samson, Moone, Pepper-corne, Thomas,* 1.16 Bee, Aduise, Rose, little Francis, and the Prize. This afternoone the Sunnes Skiffe came aboord the Moone from Inganio with the Master and Cape Merchant, the Minister, and twentie men more, the Ship being split in pieces, and all her sicke men drowned, being eightie or ninetie of them. The Inhabitants of Inganio came downe on them which were gotten on land,* 1.17 and slue seuen or eight, hurt the Master and others, with wooden Darts. Then they made them another Boat of boords and broken pieces that came from the ship. So there came sixtie or seuentie men in the Skiffe and this Boat; and nineteene or twentie were left on the Iland sicke and hurt, [ 40] which were after taken in by Iowa Prawes and brought aboord the ships, being in miserable case, with want of clothes, bruses with the Rocks, and burning with the Sunne and salt Water. The nine and twentieth, the Globe arriued.

The third of December, the Bee set saile for Inganio, to see if they could haue any thing, but was forced backe with crosse windes. The fourth,* 1.18 the Blacke Lion of the Hollanders arriued from the Coast of China, Palatina, and other places; her lading, Pepper, Rice, Sugar, and some China commodities, by report, to the quantitie of sixe hundred tunnes. This night Sir Thomas Dale caused men to goe out of other ships aboord the Moone, the Cloue, the Samson, the Globe, being but weakly manned: which the next day anchored close by the Blacke Lion, which yeelded on composition. Shee was, by report, of eight hundred tunnes, had in her eightie men, and two or foure and twentie peeces of Ordnance. The nineteenth, Sir Thomas Dale in the Moone, [ 50] Captaine Pring in the Gift, with the Vnicorne, Cloue, Samson, Globe, Pepper-corne, Thomas, Bee, Rose and Blacke Lion, set saile for Iaquatra, where they found riding seuen saile of Hollanders, rea∣die to fight. The one and twentieth, came a Holland ship from Iambe, which sent their Boat for Iaquatra with twelue men, two great murtherers and eight small shot, with each man his sword: but we way-layed her and tooke her with the Barge, and the Ship put to Sea againe.

The two and twentieth, we thought to haue fought, and plyed to and againe as occasion of∣fered. The three and twentieth, we began the fight, and the Iambe ship got in amongst them. This fight continued about three houres,* 1.19 in which time wee receiued in the Hll and Masts be∣tweene fiftie and sixtie great shot, most in the Hull, yet had but one hurt in the fight, and hee died of it. The Hollanders and wee came to an anchor all night close by each other. The next [ 60] morning wee set saile and plyed to windward: but the Hollanders seeing wee would get vp to them, waighed and fled betweene halfe way Iland and the other Iland to the East, and so bore a∣way to the East, betweene the Ilands and the Mayne. And when they came thwart of their I∣land, they saw a little English Pinnasse, which in flight from them had run on a ledge of Rocks,* 1.20

Page 620

and was there cast away. They sent their Boates, which by our pursuit they were forced to re∣call; and we stood after them amayne and chased them (being now by addition of another from Iaquatra nine ships) three or foure miles to the East of Iaquatra, and night comming on, ancho∣red. The fiue and twentieth, came a China Iuncke on fire driuing thwart our halfe, but we per∣ceiued it betime, let slip and auoyded it, so that it did no harme at all. We made after them, but they were vnder sayle to the East, and the wind at South South-west. The same day we tooke out the Thomas Ordnance, beeing an old ship, and sunke her neere the Hollanders Iland. The eight and twentieth,* 1.21 they aboord the Blacke Lion, cryed out, fire, and shee was suddenly on a light fire, and nothing saued, but her company, which went into the Boat and Skiffe. This hap∣pened by some which had beene at Dice all night, and went and broke vp a Scuttle where there [ 10] was Rackupee,* 1.22 which so soone as they had broched, tooke fire with the light they had, as it is reported.

The third of Ianuary, Master Iackson, the Land Captaine of the Iames, dyed of a shot which had taken away his legge at Iaquatra. The seuenth, Shot and Powder were sent to the King of Iaquatra to take the Hollanders Castle. The ninth, we wayed from this place to the Westward. The twentieth, we espyed two sayles to whom we gaue chase in vaine, they sailing better then wee: the next day wee espyed foure, which wee chased as the wind would giue leaue till night. The fiue and twentieth, the Bee was sent to Marough for prouision; The one and thir∣tieth, we anchored in the Road of Bantam.

The three and twentieth of February, Sir Thomas Dale weighed to go for Iaquatra, with the [ 20] Moone, Cloue, Globe, Samson, Pepper-corne, Hound, Bee, Rose. The seuen and twentieth, the Great Iames, the Gift, the Vnicorne, and the little Iames weighed from Bantam leauing in the Road the Aduice and the Mosambeeke or Prize.

The first of March, the Flemmings saw vs and weighed, and we made all the sayle we could to get vp to them, and they keeping the weather of vs, their Admirall let flye two Peeces at the Great Iames first:* 1.23 and then we went to it on all hands. As wee fought, one of the Flemmings ranne aboord their Admirall by chance, and bore ouer-boord his owne Botspret and Beak-head, and the Admirals Ancient. The other two Flemmings seeing that, shooting a shot or two, ranne away and the rest after. We tacked and chased them, but they going better, went from vs ex∣ceedingly, and wee gaue ouer. The thirteenth, the Bee came to vs in Bantam Road, from Sir [ 30] Themas Dales Fleet at Iaquatra.

The seuen and twentieth of Aprill, 1619. there came a Iuncke amongst our Fleet from Pata∣nia with Flemmings goods and a Flemming in her, which we tooke. The eight and twentieth, the Dragons Clawe came to an anchor at Palambam from Surat.

* 1.24The twentieth of May, we set saile in the Road of Marough, to goe for the Coast of Coro∣mandel, being eleuen Sayle in company, the Great Iames, Moone, Gift, Vnicorne, Cloue, Globe, Pepper-corne, Bee, Rose, Aduise, and the Surat Pinnasse. At fiue in the afternoone wee anchored betwixt Besse and * 1.25 Cracatawe. The one and twentieth, a Councell was held aboord the Ad∣miral (the Moone) wherein Owen Bodman was condemned for burning the Blacke Lion and other trespasses, who was hanged the next day aboord the Moone at the Yards arme.

The thirtieth of Iune, we came to an anchor nine leagues East from Masulipatan. We stayed [ 40] in these parts till the tenth of December.

The nine and twentieth of Iuly, the Vnicornes Shallop was cast away at Penara, wherein M. Rice and Harris, and foure men more were drowned.

The fiue and twentieth, we anchored neere Teco, and saw three shippes, which the next day came to vs,* 1.26 being a new Fleet; the Palsgraue Admirall, the Elizabeth Vice-Admirall, the Mer∣chants Hope Rere-Admirall. We all wayed and went into the Road of Teco.

The fourth of March, we all set sayle in Teco. The fifth, the Iames met with a shoald, and they had much to doe to saue her from grounding. This shoald lyeth from the White Iland, South-east, two thirds East, three leagues within two Glasses, the Iames and Vnicorne met with ano∣ther [ 50] shoald,* 1.27 and stayed vpon it at fiue fathome water, and within a Cables length of fiftie fa∣thomes, and then the White Iland bore North-west by West eight miles and an halfe off. The ninth,* 1.28 we bore vp to goe to the South of Nimtan. This Iland is neere twentie leagues long, and lyeth South South-east, and North North-west. On the Wester-side is great shoalding, on the East deepe water hard by the shoare. The twentieth, at night wee had a great storme, and had many Corpo-Santos,* 1.29 viz, at the head of the Maine-top-mast, and on the Meson yard, the Fore-top-mast, and the Mezon Top-mast. The next morning, the storme beganne to breake vp, and we saw the high-land of Manning Cabo.

The fiue and twentieth of March, 1620. we anchored neere the point of Ballambin; where on the sixe and twentieth our Cable was cut a-sunder with a Rocke, which wee recouered the [ 60] the seuen and twentieth.

* 1.30At the South-west point of Sumatra lyeth the Iland Pola Tellore in fiue degrees fiftie seuen minutes of South latitude, South South-east from which is Ballambin, where is good refreshing

Page 621

and watering, thence to the South point called Cape Bublathore, is two leagues South South-east three quarters East, and from thence to the next Easter point is three leagues, and in the second Bay from the said point is a Riuer where we watered, but the water not very good.

The sixth of Aprill, 1620. we weighed to goe for Bantam, with a full resolution to make an end with the Hollanders one way or other, they being eighteene Sayle, and wee ten, little and great. The eight, betweene two and three of the clocke in the morning, beeing short of San∣gang we met with the Bull and two Hollanders bound to looke vs to bring newes of the peace betwixt vs and them. The eleuenth,* 1.31 their Fleet being thirteene besides the former two came vnto vs from Iaquatra: and wee saluted each other with many Peeces of Ordnance. The [ 10] twelfth we went for Bantam where we found two Hollanders more. The seuen and twentieth, the Iames and the Vnicorne departed from vs for Iapan, to careene there. The thirtieth, we an∣chored in Iaquatra Road.

The one and twentieth of May, the Elizabeth, the Bull, and the Hope, set sayle with the Har∣lem, and the Dutch Hope. The Elizabeth and Harlem were bound for Leque Pequena,* 1.32 there to stay for the Bull and the Dutch Hope which were appointed to goe for Moccow, and the English Hope for Patania, and then to meete with the other foure at Leque Pequena, thence to goe all for Iapan, there to meete the rest of the Fleet for the Manillas. The thirtieth, peace was published at Iaquatra on shoare and aboord the ships.* 1.33

The fourth of Iune, the Moone, the Palsgraue, the Bantam and the Praw, set sayle from Ia∣quatra [ 20] for Iapan, and the Manilla's. The seuenteenth, wee set saile to goe to Cracatow to cut new Masts and Timber to sheath our ship, and beeing a league and halfe from the Roade, met with a shoald where we had but two fathomes water (being suddenly on ground) at the shippes head, and fiue at her sterne: but praysed be God, got o•••• without hurt.* 1.34 It is Rockes and Corall and lyeth halfe way betwixt Iaquatra Road, and the Sand to the East of Hectors Iland. If you keepe the Flemmish Castle and the top of the highest hill one right ouer the other; you shall goe cleere in or out. If you cannot see the hill keepe the Castle South South-east, but if you keepe it South by East, You will be neere it, or on it. On the neerest part of the next Iland to the East of Pola Lacka is a dangerous shoald two miles off, and seldome sheweth it selfe. The one and twentieth, we anchored and moored our ship a Cables length North-west of the little [ 30] round Iland, and rode till the one and twentieth of Iuly, in which time wee cut about seuentie pieces of square Timber for our decayed ship,* 1.35 and to pay the Hollanders two and twentie bor∣rowed, for their house at Iaquatra, by our Merchants. This place is so infectious that most of our men were taken with swolne legges, or bodies, some breaking out with Sores and Byles, others taken with dizzinesse and dimnesse of sight, almost euery one losing his stomacke, and giuen to vomiting with a strange costiuenesse: sixe dyed, and thirtie seuen were sicke and lame, all weake, vomiting, sacke, racke, beuerage; nothing stayed.

The seuen and twentieth, we anchored in Morough Road neere the shoare,* 1.36 which is no good Road, but we were forced, so to command the Towne wih our Ordnance in succour of our Boats, if the people should haue betrayed them, as they had done the Hollanders of whom they [ 40] slew eight men. We lost an Anchor there (they cut off the Boyes that we could not after finde it) and could get little refreshing, or none.

The nineteenth of August, we anchored at Iaquatra, hauing beene from thence two moneths, and in one moneth which we were returning from Cracatow, we lost with the former sixe, one and fortie men, besides fortie fiue sicke in the ship; nor had we aboue twentie of our owne Com∣pany that could goe vp and downe the ship. The eight and twentieth, the Hollanders surrendred the Starre againe to the English.* 1.37

The first of September came in a Flemming from Holland, which told vs of the Lion arriued at the Cape from Surat; and of sixe English ships with her in Soldania from England,* 1.38 two bound for Bantam, and foure to Surat, which were to stay in Soldania for foure Flemmings to goe to Su∣rat [ 50] with them. The one and twentieth, the Dragons Claw arriued from Achen with newes that the Charles, the Rubie, and the Diamond, were all at Sea comming for Iaquatra; and that the Bee saw a French-man of Warre on the Coast of Sumatra,* 1.39 which would by no meanes speake with her. They were in all foure ships, but she had lost her consorts.

The first of October, the Schedam arriued with newes of three English ships in the Straits of Sunda, the Royall Exchange, the Vnitie, and the Beare, the Bee also with them,* 1.40 which on the se∣cond, and the tenth arriued here. The foure and twentieth, the Dragons Claw departed hence for the Moluccas. The sixe and twentieth, one of our men suspected for stealing Cloues, was drowned. Hee had wished before mee a little afore, if hee knew of the Cloues, that hee were so farre vnder water that he might neuer rise againe; and going ouer the ships side, a step of the lad∣der [ 60] broke, and he fell ouer-boord, & neuer rose againe. The thirtieth, the Beare and Diamond were sent for Iambe in hope of Pepper. The eleuenth of Nouember, the Globe departed from Iaquatra for Iapara, to fetch sheathing boord and cattll: and the fifteenth, the Vnitie set saile for Achen.* 1.41

The second of December, the Roe-bucke arriued from Teco with Pepper. The third, the Samson arriued from Patania, and brought in her the Purser and three others of the Vnicorne,* 1.42

Page 622

which was cast on the Coast of China. The fifteenth, the Globe arriued with boords and plankes from Iapara. The sixteenth, arriued a Iuncke which brought some of the Samsons men, some of the Vnicornes, and those which were left on shoare at Patania, when the Samson and the Hound were taken. The one and twentieth, the Rubie departed for the Moluccas. The sixe and twen∣tieth, the Cloue arriued from Iambe and Patania. The nine and twentieth, the Royall Exchange, the Starre and the Roe-bucke, set sayle for Amboino with a Holland hip in their company.

The second of Ianuary, the Bee went to Hectors Iland to careene. The same day the Hollan∣ders had foure ships that went for the Moluccas,* 1.43 the Dragon being one, and the next day the New Holland, and in her Iohn Peterson Coen Generall of all the Indies, for the Hollanders: who carryed a float with eight or ten Demicanons, and fortie great Prawes to land men, and a great [ 10] company of Souldiers.* 1.44 The eighteenth, the Iames Royall arriued in Iaquatra Road from Iapan, where she careened both sides to the keele. The one and twentieth, arriued the new Zeland from Masulipatan, and brought in her Captaine Ball, Thomas Iones, and Richard Thomas. The thirtieth, the Iames began to take in Pepper to goe for England. The one and thirtieth, the Bee returned from Hectors Iland, careened to the keele, and the Globe foure or fiue strakes on a side· In the Iames Royall bound for England. The sixe and twentieth of February we set saile.

* 1.45The nineteenth of May, we anchored in the Bay of Soldania: where we set sayle the second of Iune. We found there riding the Anue, wherein was Captaine Walter Bennet, and the For∣tune a Victualler, and three Hollanders bound for Bantam. The one and twentieth of Iune, wee saw the Iland of Saint Helena, bearing West by North sixteene leagues, and on the two and [ 20] twentieth anchored there.* 1.46 Here we tooke store of fresh fish by the shippes side. The nine and twentieth, wee set sayle, and the eighteenth of September anchored in the Downes:
