But the Pirates proceeded to the southward, and took a small ship out of _Orincro_ Road, with a _Dutch_ and two _Portugueze_ Men on board, one of which they sent to the Captain, to inform him, that if he would supply them with provisions and water he should have his ship again. But the Master would not agree to it; thereupon they sent other persons ashore, and swore he should be the last man they would give quarter to, and so put directly for _Laccadeva_ Island, and arrived there in three days. But being informed by a _Menchew_, there was no anchor-ground there, they went to the next Island, called _Melincha_, whence they were driven by a storm, leaving behind them a hundred people, and all their water-casks: But in a week's time, they regained the island, took their people on board, and filled the water-casks. Provisions being scarce, they resolved to visit the _Dutch_ at _Cochin_, and after three days sail, arrived off of _Tellechery_, where they took a small Vessel belonging to Governor _Adams_; who giving an account of Captain _Mackra's_ fitting out against them, put them into a grievous passion. Afterward they arrived at _Mauritius_, where they refitted the _Victory_, and then sailed the 5th of April for _Madagascar_, but called first at the Island _Mascarine_, at which they found a _Portugueze_ ship of seventy guns at anchor, disabled by a violent storm, so that they easily became a Prize to the Pirates. She had on board the _Conde Ereceira_ Vice-Roy of _Goa_, also they found on board her, in diamonds only, to the value of four millions of Dollars. They made the Vice-Roy a prisoner; but in consideration of his losses, accepted of a ransom of 2000 dollars and then set him and his followers ashore. Learning that an _Ostender_ was on the leeward of that Island, they sailed and took her, and sent her to _Madagascar_ with news of their success, where they followed themselves soon after, with two hundred _Mozambique_ Negroes in the _Portugueze_ Ship.
