‘“ The Ravals in gemiral gained greai box
our during tke siege, but ¢fpecially the day of
the florm. Thdy sirs entered tha breach (if it
may be [o called) sword in kand,led by lieuten
ant Forbes, now a captain in the 424, The
breach did not allow of smore than one mas a
brefi, and was [s situated, that bad they wiffed
a Bep,tbey must bave gone beadlong a bundred
yards inte the [e:aon one fide, or ditch on the
other. Indeed the very men whe entered a
gainf great and small arms of the enemy, were
afraid 1o veturn by the fame way, least they
Jhould tumble down, even afier the place was
reduced,and tbe affair all over. It is agreed
there mever was a more desperate attempt. nor
mare bravely executed. Upon the whole of
this expedition which bas been long and frvere,
bern from the ememsy and climate, never a man
(one excepted, bas been known to fbew the leafd
backwardness, nor bas been beard to complain
of bard duly 5 though many, both officers and
men,bave been [everaldaysintbe trencheswith
out being relieved. |
““ Theldons were alittlemore obfiinate than
we expelled 5 but bad tbey known bow to dis
pose and make the most of their firength, they
might have encreafed our difficulties. They
muflered 6000 men under arms when the place
Jurrendgred 5 and we were not able to bring
more than balf that nxmber fit for duly.
“ In the King.ef Spain’s warehouses were
found a large quantity of sar, and other naval
flores in proportion. The prize goods all go to
England on account of the captors, except the
dry goods belonging to the Royal company,
which are to be [old bere on the [ame account,
The prize vessels will be left, owing to want
of bands, except one ship which carries bome
sugars to be fold there for the bencfit of the
caplors., .
“*Tis uncertain when Lord Albermarle
and Sir George Pococke will leave us, but’tis
imagined, fomme lime in November.
“ Things now go on bere quiet and easy, the
Spaniards are brought into preity good order,
