The _Bentworth_, Captain _Gardener_, of _Bristol_, taken the 27th of _May_, having 12 Guns and 30 Men on Board, 12 of which turned Pyrates. The _Buck_ Sloop, Captain _Sylvester_, of _Gambia_, taken the 27th of _May_, having 2 Guns and 2 Men on Board, and both turned Pyrates. The _Carteret_, Captain _Snow_, of _London_, taken the 28th of _May_, having 4 Guns and 18 Men on Board, 5 of which turned Pyrates. The _Mercury_, Captain _Maggott_, of _London_, taken the 29th of _May_, having 4 Guns and 18 Men on Board, 5 of which turned Pyrates. The _Coward_ Galley, Captain _Creed_, of _London_, taken the 17th of _June_, having 2 Guns and 13 Men on Board, 4 of which turned Pyrates. The _Elizabeth_ and _Katherine_, Captain _Bridge_ of _Barbadoes_, taken _June_ the 27th, having 6 Guns and 14 Men on Board, 4 of which turned Pyrates. The _Eagle_ Pink being bound to _Jamaica_, the _Sarah_ to _Virginia_, and the _Buck_ to _Maryland_, they let them go, but the _Charlotte_, the _Bentworth_, the _Carteret_, and the _Coward_ Galley, they burnt; and the _Mercury_, and the _Elizabeth_ and _Katherine_ were fitted up for Pyrate Ships, the former was new nam'd _Queen Ann_'s _Revenge_, and commanded by one _Lane_, and the other was call'd the _Flying King_, of which _Robert Sample_ was appointed Captain. These two left _England_ upon the Coast, sail'd to the _West-Indies_, where they took some Prizes, clean'd, and sail'd to _Brasil_ in _November_; they took several _Portuguese_ Ships there, and did a great deal of Mischief, but in the height of their Undertakings, a _Portuguese_ Man of War, which was an excellent Sailor, came a very unwelcome Guest to them, and gave them Chace; the Queen _Ann's Revenge_ got off, but was lost a little while after upon that Coast; and the _Flying King_, giving herself over for lost, ran ashore: There were then 70 Men on Board, 12 of which were kill'd, and the rest taken Prisoners, of whom the _Portuguese_ hang'd 38, of which 32 were _English_, three _Dutch_, two _French_, and one of their own Nation. _England_, in going down the Coast, took the _Peterborough_ Galley of _Bristol_, Captain _Owen_; and the _Victory_, Captain _Ridout_; the former they detained, but plundered the latter, and let her go. In _Cape Corso_ Road, they saw two Sail at Anchor, but before they could reach them, they slipp'd their Cables and got close under _Cape Corso Castle_, these were the _Whydah_, Captain _Prince_, and the _John_, Captain _Rider_: The Pyrates upon this made a fire Ship of a Vessel they had lately taken, and attempted to burn them, as tho' they had been a common Enemy, which if effected, they could not have been one Farthing the better for it; but the Castle firing warmly upon them, they withdrew, and sail'd down to _Whydah_ Road, where they found another Pyrate, one Captain _la Bouche_, who getting thither before _England_ arrived, had forestall'd the Market, and greatly disappointed their Brethren.
