Thej^ then made signs to Rosenbury to come to them, who was all this while swimming about in the sea ; but he refused, signifying that they would kill him. They then pointed to Taylor, intimating that they had not killed him. Thereupon he came forward, and having first thrown them his pistol and all his clothes except his shirt, he ventured to put himself into their hands. When he came up they offered him no violence ; only held the boat's mast and the lustol to him by way of deriding the f oUy... of his attempts to frighten them. They seemed very much pleased with the clothes, which they divided among them as far as they would go. They then began to rifle the boat, and having taken all the rope they could find, and the hook by which the rudder hung to the stern-post, they began to knock the stern to pieces for the iron which was about it. Next to knocking the poor wretches on the head, this was the most fatal thing they could do, and, rough as the jioor sailors were, they burst into tears at the injury offered to the boat, and entreated the savages to desist with such agony of distress that they suffered the boat to remain as they found it.
