In 1718 he happened to arrive in his ship at a small uninhabited island in the Bay of Honduras to find Vane on shore and destitute. Vane thought he would be saved by Holford, but the latter was quite frank in refusing, saying: "I shan't trust you aboard my ship unless I carry you a prisoner, for I shall have you caballing with my men, knock me on the head, and run away with my ship a-pyrating." It was owing to Holford that Vane was eventually taken a prisoner to Jamaica and there hanged. HOLLAND, CAPTAIN RICHARD. An Irishman. Commanded a Spanish pirate vessel in the West Indies in 1724.

In August, 1724, Holland's ship took as prizes the _John and Mary_, the _Prudent Hannah of Boston_, and the _Dolphin_, of Topsham, all on their way to Virginia. From out of the _John and Mary_ he took thirty-six men slaves, some gold dust, the captain's clothes, four great guns and small arms, and 400 gallons of rum. HOPKINS, MR. Buccaneer and apothecary.
