The 25th of the said Month of _May_, the Ship commanded by Captain _Chataud_, which came from thence, that is to say, from _Sidon_, _Tripoli_, _Syria_, and _Cyprus_, arrives at the said Islands; but his Patents are clean (_i.e._ his Certificates imported there was no Contagion at those Places,) because he came away the 31st of _January_, before the Plague was there. He declares, however, to the Intendants of Health, that in his Voyage, or at _Leghorn_ where he touched, Six Men of his Crew died, but he shews by the Certificate of the Physicians of Health at _Leghorn_, that they died only of Malignant Fevers, caused by unwholesome Provisions. The 27th of _May_, one of his Sailors dies in his Ship. The 28th, the Intendants cause the Corpse to be carried into the Infirmary; _Guerard_, chief Surgeon of Health, views it; and makes Report, that it has not any Mark of Contagion. The 29th, the Intendants settle the purifying of the Goods of this Cargo, to Forty Days compleat, to be reckoned from the Day the last Bale shall be carried from it into the Infirmaries. The last of _May_, Three other Vessels arrive at the same Islands; _viz._ Two small Vessels of Captain _Aillaud_'s from _Sidon_, whence they came since the Plague was there; and Captain _Fouque_'s Bark from _Scanderoon_. The 12th of _June_, Captain _Gabriel_'s Ship arrives there likewise from the same Places, with a foul Patent; (_i. e._ importing, that the Plague was there.) The same Day the Officer, whom the Intendants had put on Board Captain _Chataud_'s Ship to see Quarantain duly performed, dies there; _Guerard_ chief Surgeon of Health views the Body, and makes Report that it has not any Mark of Contagion. The 14th of _June_, the Passengers who came in the said Ship, are perfumed for the last Time in the Infirmaries; and are allowed to enter the City as usual. The 23d, being the Eve of St. _John Baptist_, the Grand Prior arrives at _Genoa_ with the King's Gallies; the Sheriffs have the Honour to welcome him, and I to make a Speech to him in the Name of the City. The same Day a Cabbin-Boy of Captain _Chataud_'s Ship, a Servant employed at the Infirmaries in purifying the Goods of that Ship, and another who was purifying those of Captain _Gabriel_'s Ship, fall sick; the same Surgeon makes Report that they have not any Mark of Contagion. The 24th, another Servant employed to purify Captain _Aillaud_'s Goods, falls sick likewise; is visited, and the same Report made. The 24th, and 26th, all Four dye one after another; their Bodies are viewed, and Report made that they have not any Mark of Contagion.
