They took Possession of it, and continued there near seven Weeks, in which Time they all cleaned their Ships. We should have observed, that a Galley came into the Road while they were there, which _Davis_ insisted should be yielded to _La Bouse_, according to his Word of Honour before given; _Cocklyn_ did not oppose it, so _La Bouse_ went into her, with his Crew, and cutting away her half Deck, mounted her with twenty four Guns. Having called a Counsel of War, they agreed to sail down the Coast together, and for the greater Grandeur, appointed a Commadore, which was _Davis_; but they had not kept Company long, when drinking together on Board of _Davis_, they had like to have fallen together by the Ears, the strong Liquor stirring up a Spirit of Discord among them, and they quarrelled, but _Davis_ put an End to it, by this short Speech:--_Heark ye, you_ Cocklin _and_ La Bouse, _I find by strengthening you, I have put a Rod into your Hands to whip my self, but I'm still able to deal with you both; but since we met in Love, let us part in Love, for I find, that three of a Trade can never agree_.--Upon which the other two went on Board their respective Ships, and immediately parted, each steering a different Course. _Davis_ held on his Way down the Coast, and making Cape _Appollonia_, he met with two _Scotch_ and one _English_ Vessel, which he plundered, and then let go. About five Days after he fell in with a _Dutch_ Interloper of thirty Guns and ninety Men, (half being _English_,) off Cape _Three Points_ Bay; _Davis_ coming up along Side of her, the _Dutch_ Man gave the first Fire, and pouring in a broad-Side upon _Davis_, killed nine of his Men, _Davis_ returned it, and a very hot Engagement followed, which lasted from one a Clock at Noon, till nine next Morning, when the _Dutch_ Man struck, and yielded her self their Prize. _Davis_ fitted up the _Dutch_ Ship for his own Use, and called her the _Rover_, aboard of which he mounted thirty two Guns, and twenty seven Swivels, and proceeded with her and the _King James_, to _Anamaboe_; he entered the Bay betwixt the Hours of twelve and one at Noon, and found there three Ships lying at Anchor, who were trading for Negroes, Gold and Teeth: The Names of these Ships were the _Hink_ Pink, Captain _Hall_ Commander, the _Princess_, Captain _Plumb_, of which _Roberts_, who will make a considerable Figure in the sequel of this History, was second Mate, and the _Morrice_ Sloop, Captain _Fin_; he takes these Ships without any Resistance, and having plundered them, he makes a Present of one of them, _viz._ the _Morrice_ Sloop, to the _Dutch_ Men, on Board of which alone were found a hundred and forty Negroes, besides dry Goods, and a considerable Quantity of Gold-Dust.
