I pity my poor fellow creatures who may have been made prisoners in this war, and especially some that were lately sent to the Havanah, and all by the treachery of that vile fellow, John Evergin, who says he is possessed with the spirit of the inward man, but was possessed with the spirit of Beelzebub, when he piloted the cursed Spaniards over the bar of Obricock, as it has been proved in Court.
I don't remember exactly what made me suppose this, but such I know was my idea at the time. "What, your friend Captain Hawk's craft, the Foam, you mean, I suppose?" he observed. "But how can that be? She was bound to the Havanah, and this vessel is standing away from it."
My opinion of him was, that he would not have sought to become a pirate, but that, having no nice sense of right and wrong finding himself thrust, as it were, into the life he did not think it worth making any exertion to escape from it. Whether we went to the Havanah or not I did not know.
Glover soon returned with the satisfactory information that she was the "Carolina," a large Spanish ship, richly laden from the Havanah to Cadiz. A prize crew was immediately put on board, and the prisoners were removed to the "Pallas." They pulled their moustaches, lit their cigars, and resigned themselves to their lot.
