stayed with him on Board which was two Days and two Nights —
(for he was kept waiting one day for the men's provisions) I had the —
satisfaction of seeing him Considerably strengthened and I hope the
Ague gone. When he was incapable of Business which was the Case
for several days everything was either at a stand or going wrong,
nobody Capable of supplying his place in a Business so new &
so much his own —
Fear of being distanced by the Empress hurried him
away in this Condition before the fitting up of the habitable
part was finished; he took a number of the hands aboard with him
for that purpose and they were working as much at their ease as
on dry Land; The hold given to the Wind by the necessary height of the habitable
part above the Water was a great Difficulty to content with,
in a stormy part of the year, though so Confined and winding
a channel, rendered only the more dangerous by spreading itself
occasionally, at this Season of Inundation, over Underwoods and
Sand Banks. —
