On the 10th in the evening we got withina league of the westermost land seen, which is pretty high and verywoody, but no appearance of anchoring. I stood off again, designing (ifpossible) to ply to and fro in this bay till I found a conveniency towood and water. We saw no more plantations, nor coconut-trees; yet in thenight we discerned a small fire right against us. The next morning we sawa burning mountain in the country. It was round, high, and peaked at top(as most volcanoes are) and sent f...orth a great quantity of smoke. We tookup a log of driftwood and split it for firing; in which we found somesmall fish.
CAPE ORFORD.
The day after we passed by the south-west cape of this bay, leaving it tothe north of us: when we were abreast of it I called my officerstogether, and named it Cape Orford, in honour of my noble patron;drinking his lordship's health. This cape bears from Cape St. Georgesouth-west about 18 leagues. Between them there is a bay about 25 leaguesdeep, having pretty high land all round it, especially near the capes, though they themselves are not high.
