Here they sunk the Hugh Gallant, all the hands being now required for the other vessels. They also sent on shore their Indian prisoners, and without touching at any other land, held a northerly course for nearly a VOYAGE ROUND THE WORLD. 155 month. On the 9th July they captured a new ship of one hundred and twenty tons, which, first taking away her ropes and sails, they immediately burned. In this vessel was a Frenchman, Michael Sancius, who gave information of the Manilla ship then expected fr...om the Philippines. This was a prize worth looking after; and they were so far fortunate as to intercept a small bark sent to give her warning. On the 27th, by day- break, they entered the harbour of Guatulco, and burned the town, the church, and custom-house, in which was found a quantity of dye-stuffs and cocoas. Some trifling adventures marked the following day, in which they by mistake oversailed Acapulco. Landing at Puerto de Navidad, they burned two ships, each of two hundred tons, then on the stocks, and made prisoner a mulatto, who earned letters of advice of their progress along the coast of New Galicia.
