They told us the French privateers came into the Very Bay and took 2 of their Vessels but the day before, which were ransom'd for £25 a piece.

Harry shouted his thanks across to Roger, and drew his sword out of the impaled body with some difficulty, determined not to be so tricked again, and once more the battle went furiously on, the savages surging madly about the cave's mouth, and the two lads straining every nerve to keep their stronghold inviolate.
It is customary for campers to cache their belongings with the assurance that forest etiquette will be held inviolate and their goods remain unmolested.
