In this schooner I agreed for a berth in the cabin, and was to furnish my own stores, with the proviso that the cook should do all the cooking I might require. With this un- derstanding, I purchased a few hams, a bag of bread, a demi- john of wine, tea, sugar, coffee and other stores, sufficient for fifteen days. Tiie schooner being ready, 1 bade adieu to all my friends in Cadiz on the 15th of February, having been there just forty- nine days. I sailed out of the bay with a heavy heart at part-... ing with so many who were true and faithful. I had a few choice books with me to read on the passage, and had become so much accustomed to all kinds of life, that I felt I should be able to accommodate myself to almost any condition. I soon found that the captain was a good disciplinarian, and managed his vessel very well ; although he had never made a foreign voyage, he knew the coast and understood his business, and I felt myself fortunate in having fallen into siich good hands. This was the first time I had ever sailed under the Portu- guese flag, and many of their customs were quite new to me.
