But sowne after came news that 3 or 4 galliotas weare arived at 181 Nangasaque from Amacon and had brought much silk and stuffes, and soe he said he would goe from his bargen, notwithstanding he had geven us a bill under his hand writing for performance.

The bill of Tozemon Donos to take our silk was made in such sort that he might take but i _pico_ of a sort, yf he would, for no quantety was set downe, nether that he should take all. This was donne per neglegence of Mr. Eaton, that trusted his boy and would not call for a _jurebasso_.

_August 5_ (_Roquenguach 28_).--Jno. Yossen came to thenglish howse to begg the life of the Hollander condemned for killing Mr. Avery, but could not preveale.

We had news for certen this day that 2 galliotas were arived at Nangasaque from Amacou, with silk and stuffes, and 2 others yet without to enter.

Also Mr. Christofer Bogans had a letter from a Portugez at Nangasaque, wherin he wrot hym a long cercomstance how well the men (espetially the woamen) weare used that escaped out of the shipp _Unicorne_ in China, when she was cast away; and with what pompe the woamen weare receaved; with many other Portingall lies.

_August 7_ (_Roquenguach 30_).--The _Bulls_ company wholy mutyned, and 36 of them came to Firando and deliverd a writing unto me, wherin they demanded their 16th parte of priz goods. And, after, Capt. Adames, 182 admerall, wrote me to take one James Martin, a Scotsman, yf he came to Firando, and lay hym in irons. This Scott is he which stured up the _Bulls_ men to muteny, promising to perswade the _Moons_ men to doe the like and to follow them, "because" (said he) "they sell away the goods, and, yf yow suffer them to carry them away, yow shall never have any thing".

_August 10_ (_Sitinguach 3_).--We had a jenerall counsell this day at the English howse, both of English and Hollanders, where it was ordayned that the Duch should carry the flag in the meane topp, as admerall, this second voyage for Manillias, and the English as vizadmerall. But Capt. Robt. Adams, admerall the former voyadg, aledged he was free per meanes of a letter he brought out of England, and soe ment to resigne his place to Capt. Chorles Cleavenger and retorne for Jaccatra. Unto whome it was objected that, yf he shronke, it was a bad precedent to make all the rest doe the like. Unto which he replied that, rather then that should happen, he would goe meanest man in the fleete; yet that he would not put out the flagg in the fore topp for 3 or 4 daies space, and in the meane tyme would take adviz what was best to doe. And soe Jno. Jonson was ordayned admerall, to put out his flagg in the meane top to morrow; and that the Councell of Defences ordenances should be read abord all the fleete to morow; and a muster taken how many men their were, and soe to know each mans opinion, what he would replie against these proceadinges.

Also it was brought in question at the same councell, tuching the abuse of one , master of the shipp _Swan_ and on of the Councell of War, how he per force did enter per night into the 5th junck taken, with som 40 or 50 men with weopens and close lantarns, and, after the beating and misusing of the Englishmen which had pocession, did pilledg and sett the junk on fire, leaveing the English 183 men in her to be burned, yf they hadd nott byn releeved. Unto which Jno. Johnson, the admerall, replied that our men had used other abuses to his men. Which, in the end, was remitted till they came to the Councell of Defence at Jaccatra.

_August 11_ (_Sitinguach 4_).--This day Jno. Johnson was made admerall both of Duch and English, and proclemation made abord each shipp, both Duch and English, and all presoners sett at libertie for any muteny hertofore, the Duch at request of Capt.

Chorles Cleavengar, Capt. Edmond Lennis, Mr. Jno. Munden, Mr. Arnold Browne, seamen; Joseph Cockram, Wm. Eaton, Ric. Cocks, merchantes--wherein he desired to be dismissed from going vizadmerall this second tyme to Manillas, shewing a discharg from our Right Honble. Company in England, being permitted to retorne for England per first shipp which came; yet, in respect the Councell of Defence had now made a second chose of hym (he striving to put it to Capt. Chorles Clevengar), yet we all in generall put it upon hym, which he in the end condecended unto, to put out his flagg in the fore tope to morrow morning.

Yt was agreed per us and the Hollanders that to morow morning Capt. Speck and another Hollander, with Mr. Cockram and my selfe, should 184 goe for Nangasaque to morow, to make an end about price of our lead, as also to provide any thing wanting to geve to the Emperour and Councell for presentes.

Within night Lansman the Duchman came to vizet me, for by day he durst not, for feare of the excomunecation, telling me it was defended that noe Roman Catholick might open their mouth to speak to us.

_August 19_ (_Sitinguach 12_).--We went to vizet Gonrok Dono with the present nomenated yistarday, and he of hymselfe began to speake about the price of the leade, telling us that the Councell thought iiij _taies_ per _pico_ enough, and therefore he durst not presume to geve more. Unto which we answered that themperour might take it for 186 nothing, yf he pleased, yet we knew it was in his Lordshipps handes to sett what price he pleased; and, seeing Ogosha Samma of famos memory sett the price at vj _taies_ per _pico_, to take all which came at that price, and Shongo Samma his sonne, the Emperour that now is, did conferme it, we hoped his Lordshipp would have consideration thereof, and the rather, for that we hadd now byn driven affe a yeare and a halfe, and could not make benefite of our good nor monies, but weare forced to take up money at interest. And, to conclud, we tould him he hym selfe did offer 4-1/2 _taies_ per _pico_ the yeare past; yet it seemed he did not remember the same. And soe, being late, we departed and left it to his Lordshipps consideration till to morrow to think better thereof.

And soe we went to Skidayen Dono, his secretary, and carid hym the present nomenated before, desyring hym to put his master in mind to end the acco. of lead.

Within night Nicolas Marin, an Italian and pilot to the Portugezes, came to vizet me, because he durst nott doe it per day, and tould me how all weare excomunecated that did ether buy or sell with thenglish or Hollanders, or had any conversation with them, or did soe much as put affe their hattes or salute them in the streetes.

_August 20_ (_Sitinguach 13_).--I wrot a letter to Mr. Eaton, and sent it per Mangusque, Zazabra Donos servant, advizing how Gonrok offerd us now but 4 _tais pico._ for our lead, as also of the difference betwixt Gonrok with the Japon merchantes against the Portugezes, about the quantety of silk com in the friggates, and how he makes _pancado_ of stuffes now as well as of silke. And I wished Mr. Eaton to sell away our silk, yf possibly he could, for it is said there is neare j M. _pico._ com in these friggots.

And we carid our presentes to Feze Dono and Yasimon Dono, as is noted downe the 18th present, and desired them to be a meanes to Gonrok 187 Dono to make an end of the price of the leade, or to tell as what we should trust unto.

The Hollanders supped with us at China Capt. and have envited us to dynner to their lodging to morow.

Soe he replied he would geve us 4-1/2 _taies_, upon condition we would geve hym a bill of our handes that, yf the Emperour and Councell weare not content to geve so much, we should let it goe for lesse. Unto which both the Hollanders and we answerd that we would com to a sett price, were it at 4-1/2 or otherwais; the which he took in such snuffe as he sent our present back againe to Hollandes lodging.

And I delivered an other letter to Yasobro, Tayemon Donos wives brothers servant, advising how Gonrok Dono had retorned a flatt answer he would geve but 4 _taies_ per _pico_ for lead, as also of arivall of the junck from Manillia wherein Wyamon Dono went capt., and that all was lies of 14 junckes and 6 friggats which arived after our fleete came away.

Adams _goshon_, is now retorned to Faconda roade, and Migell com ashore with news they have made a very badd voyage, and that they were badly used per the Spaniardes, miscalling them because they were frendes to the English and Duch. They also report that, after our fleete came from Manillias, noe junckes entred theare [with exception] of only 3 emptie ons which our fleet set at libertie, haveing rifeled them; as also ij friggates arived theare and went in on the back side of Manillias for feare of our fleete.

Speck to goe to Edo this yeare, in respect he was well knowne to themperour and his Councell, as also thenglish had need to send one that knew the orders of Japan, for that we had many enemis at Court per means of the Portingales and Spaniardes and their well willars which weare many. Unto which we answerd that we would take councell about the matter and have in remembrance what his Highnesse had made knowne unto us.

We envited the Hollanders admerall, merchantes, and all the rest of princepalles to dyner after to morow, being Sattarday; but the admerall, Wm. Johnson, denied.

And tuching 192 our two men, the one being charged with stealing of a knife, as he confesseth, but the Japans burthen hym with stealing of money, and the other for the bad handling of a woaman great with child, whereby she cast her child; "yet", said he, "I make acco., yf yow speake but one word to Semi Dono, he will sett them free".
