ROUND THE WOULD. 439 After a Hay of two or three clays, a canoe appeared ort'oncof the neighbouring points j the Indians uttered ibirie words, but they would not come alorigfidc tlic frigates. The expedition of the Spaniards terminated at this iiland. They quitted it on the ythof Auguft, and came to anchor at San Bias, the 27th of No- vember. From Cape Saint-Klias to the IHa de Regla, they took, with the mofi: fcrupulous ex- adnefs, the bearings of all the iflands, capes, and bays, which they law; but the winds and the currents, very frequent and very violent in thefc feas, drove them off the coafls oftener than they defired, and prejudiced the accuracy of their reckoning. Nevcrthelefs, if they publifh the chart they have conflrucled according to their bearings, their obfervations, joined to thofe oF captain Cook, of La Peroufe, and captain Dixon, will contribute not a little to improve the geography of this part of the toafl of North America. â ^ m. t m: â¦i End of the Preliminary Part, .5 ' !i ; â¢â r' Ff-^ YOYAQE.
