In 1585, he accompanied Sir Richard Grenville's expedition to Virginia; and in July, 1586, he sailed from Plymouth with a small squadron of his own. His first ex* ploit was a descent upon Sierra Leone in which he won neither honour nor booty. On the 16th of December, he made the coast of Americ^ in 47 30' south latitude, and on the 6th of January, next year, he entered Magellan's straits ; here he found the wretched remains of a Spanish colony founded after Drake's appearance in this quarter, b...y Sariniento, with the view of retaining what was considered as the master- key to the South seas in the hands of Spain. These colonists had been long abandoned to their fate by the mother-country. Cavendish offered to transport them to Peru, but they hesitated to trust themselves to the heretic, and while they differed among themselves on the point, a fair wind springing up, the English squadron sailed, leaving the wretched Spaniards to their miserable fate. On the 24th of February, the squad- ron emerged from the straits after performing a number of marauding exploits on the Peruvian and Chilian coast.
