Captain _England_, after this Baulk, went into a Harbour, clean'd his own Ship, and fitted up the _Peterborough_, which he call'd the _Victory_; they liv'd there very wantonly for several Weeks, making free with the Negroe Women, and committing such outragious Acts, that they came to an open Rupture with the Natives, several of whom they kill'd, and one of their Towns they set on Fire. When the Pyrates came out to Sea, they put it to a Vote what Voyage to take, and the Majority carrying it for the _East-Indies_, they shap'd their Course accordingly, and arrived at _Madagascar_, the Beginning of the Year 1720. They staid not long there, but after taking in Water and Provisions, sail'd for the Coast of _Malabar_, which is a fine fruitful Country in the _East-Indies_, in the Empire of the _Mogul_, but immediately subject to its own Princes: It reaches from the Coast of _Canara_ to _Cape Camorin_, which is between 7° 30, and 12° North Lattitude, and in about 75° East Longitude, counting from the Meridian of _London_. The old Natives are Pagans, but there are a great Number of _Mahometans_ inhabiting among them, who are Merchants, and generally rich. On the same Coast, but in a Province to the Northward lies _Goa, Surat, Bombay_, where the _English, Dutch_, and _Portuguese_ have Settlements. Hither our Pyrates came, having made a Tour of half the Globe, as the Psalmist says of the Devils, _Going about like roaring Lions, seeking whom they might devour_. They took several Country Ships, that is, _Indian_ Vessels, and one European, a _Dutch_ Ship, which they exchanged for one of their own, and then came back to _Madagascar_. They sent several of their Hands on Shore with Tents, Powder, and Shot, to kill Hogs, Venison, and such other fresh Provision as the Island afforded, and a Whim came into their Heads to seek out for the Remains of _Avery_'s Crew, whom they knew to be settled somewhere in the Island.--Accordingly some of them travell'd several Days Journey, without hearing any Intelligence of them, and so were forc'd to return with the Loss of their Labour, for these Men were settled on the other Side of the Island, as has been taken Notice of under the Chapter of _Avery_. They stay'd not long here, after they had clean'd their Ships, but sailing to _Juanna_; they met two _English_, and one _Ostend India_ Men, coming out of that Harbour, one of which, after a desperate Resistance, they took; the Particulars of which Action is at length related in the following Letter, wrote by the Captain from _Bombay_. A LETTER from Captain _Mackra_, dated at _Bombay, Nov._ 16, 1720.
