From _Anguilla_ they came to _St. Thomas’_; where his Brother-in-law _Samuel Bradley_ was put on shore, being sick; and Five more went away, and deserted him: Where he heard the same News, That the Narrator, and his Company, were proclaimed Pirates, which incensed the People more and more. From _St. Thomas_ set sail for _Moona_, an Island between _Hispaniola_ and _Porto Rico_; where they met with a Sloop called the _St. Anthony_, bound for _Antega_ from _Curaso_, Mr. Wm. _Boulton_ Merchant, and _Samuel Wood_, Master: The men on board then swore, they would bring the Ship no further. The Narrator then sent the said Sloop _St. Anthony_ for _Curaso_, for Canvas to make Sails for the Prize, she not being able to proceed; and she returned in Ten Days; and after the Canvas came, he could not persuade the Men to carry her for _New England_; but Six of them went and carried their Chests and Things on board of Two _Dutch_ Sloops; bound for _Curaso_; and would not so much as heel the Vessel, or do anything, the Remainder of the men not being able to bring the _Adventure_ Prize to _Boston_, the Narrator secured her in a good Harbour in some Part of _Hispaniola_ and left in the Possession of Mr. _Henry Boulton_ of _Antegua_, Merchant, the Maker, Three of the old Men, and Fifteen or Sixteen of the men that belonged to the said Sloop _St. Anthony_, and a Brigantine belonging to one Mr. _Burt_ of _Curaso_. That the Narrator bought the said Sloop _St. Anthony_ of Mr. _Boulton_, for the Owner’s Account; and after, he had given Directions to the said _Boulton_ to be careful of the said Ship and Lading, and persuaded him to stay Three Months till he returned; and then made the best of his Way to _New York_; where he heard the Earl of _Bellamont_ was, who was principally concerned in the _Adventure Galley_; and hearing his Lordship was at _Boston_, came thither; and has now been 45 Days from the said Ship.
