A
Letter
written
from
abord
the
Admirall
of
Sir
Kenelme
Digbie
.
THe
tenth
of
Iune
1628.
we
lay
at
Hull
all
night
in
sight
of
Cape
Congier
,
which
is
ten
leagues
from
Scanderon
,
and
sent
a
boat
to
descry
the
Road.
The
next
morning
shee
brought
vs
word
that
there
were
at
Ancor
there
two
Venetian
Galleazzes
,
two
of
their
Galleons
,
two
English
ships
and
foure
French
vessells
.
We
then
prouided
our selues
to
come
into
that
place
,
and
had
fitted
our selues
in
most
ample
manner
,
both
for
offence
,
defence
and
freeing
of
vessels
if
we
should
be
hard
set
,
the
name
of
Gallegrezes
was
a
formidable
thing
,
but
after
a
short
speech
made
to
our
men
,
they
expressed
much
desire
to
aduenture
in
,
and
gaue
assurance
that
they
would
not
faile
in
performing
their
duties
;
Indeed
they
kept
their
words
,
for
neuer
men
behaued
themselues
more
brauely
.
About
ten
of
the
clocke
that
day
(
then
)
wee
had
a
fine
gale
which
brought
vs
within
a
league
of
Scanderone
by
two
of
the
clocke
in
the
afternoone
;
and
wee
had
sent
the
Sattie
in
before
to
deliuer
Letters
to
the
Generall
of
the
Venetians
,
as
also
to
the
English
Captaines
there
.
Therein
acquainting
them
how
we
came
forth
vpon
a
voyage
of
warfare
,
with
his
Maiesties
Commission
vnder
the
great
Seale
of
England
,
and
assuring
them
of
all
due
respect
and
friendlinesse
vnto
them
as
became
vs
.
Vpon
the
receipt
of
this
Letter
the
Venetians
wayed
anchor
,
and
treating
our
men
very
discourteously
would
not
permit
them
to
goe
deliuer
our
Letters
aboard
the
English
ships
;
the
Galleasses

As
soone
as
they
were
within
shot
of
vs
the
Admirall
Galleasse
shot
a
bullet
within
halfe
a
shippes
length
of
vs
,
which
we
vnderstood
as
a
salute
(
for
we
had
giuen
them
no
cause
to
the
contrarie
)
therefore
saluted
them
with
a
peece
from
them
wards
and
did
so
to
all
the
other
vessels
which
likewise
shot
at
vs
after
7.
or
8.
shots
(
some
of
which
did
hit
some
of
our
ships
.
)
They
shot
at
our
flag
and
at
the
same
instant
our
Satties
boat
came
aboard
vs
,
and
told
vs
how
hardly
the
Venetians
had
treated
them
,
and
in
returne
to
our
respectiue
Letter
they
sent
this
message
.
That
if
wee
did
not
immediatly
depart
out
of
sight
of
the
Road
,
they
would
sinke
our
vessels
.
We
then
endeuoured
the
best
wee
could
to
let
them
see
our
long
forbearance
was
to
make
our
quarrell
a
iust
one
and
not
through
apprehension
of
their
much
famed
vessels
.
For
we
gaue
them
3.
or
4.
broad
sides
in
a
very
short
time
,
which
(
they
being
neare
)
did
them
spoile
,
vpon
this
they
grew
more
cautious
and
fought
at
a
further
distance
whilst
in
the
meane
time
we
laid
so
well
at
the
Galleons
that
the
men
stowed
themselues
in
their
holds
,
and
left
their
vessels
to
their
owne
fortunes
without
guidance
.
The
Galleasses
comming
vp
to
help
them
receiued
so
rude
a
welcome
from
vs
,
that
they
rowed
amayne
away
,
and
sheltred
themselues
vnder
the
English
ships
that
were
in
the
Road
;
which
saued

shot
out
of
our
ship
;
for
we
were
all
commanded
to
be
very
cautious
in
that
point
rather
to
misse
an
opportunitie
of
hurting
the
Enemie
,
then
to
endanger
our
Countrimen
.
In
this
time
whilst
the
Eagle
Vice-admirall
and
Rere-admirall
were
hot
in
fight
with
the
Galleasses
and
Galleons
,
the
Hopewell
and
the
Sattie
were
sent
vpon
the
French
men
,
one
of
them
had
16.
Peeces
of
Ordnance
,
all
the
other
had
some
guns
,
3.
of
their
vessels
they
took
presently
,
the
fourth
ran
a

;
at
our
beginning
the
fight
,
she
had
a
100000.
peeces
of
Eight
Rials
in
her
,
but
before
we
could
board
her
,
she
had
sent
all
the
money
ashoare
in
her
boats
.
Towards
euening
it
blew
a
fresh
gale
with
yare
working
of
our
ships
,
it
fared
ill
with
the
Venetians
,
and
they
sought
to
auoid
vs
as
much
as
they
could
.
And
we
followed
them
close
,
our
great
guns
going
off
in
swiftnesse
rather
like
Muskets
then
Peeces
of
Ordnance
,
the
truth
is
our
men
did
exceed
beliefe
in
good
performance
.
And
if
our
powder
had
not
beene
very
bad
,
for
wee
had
none
but
Dutch
Powder
,
and
the
day
calme
,
we
had
soone
ended
the
quarrell
with
them
:
By
this
time
they
were
much
maymed
in
their
oares
,
and
had
receiued
many
dangerous
shots
.
Then
they
procured
the
English
Vice-consull
here
,
(
who
was
aboard
them
)
to
come
to
our
Admiral
to
mediate
their
peace
;
who
would
not
consent
to
it
vpon
any
other
termes
but
that
they
should
quit
the
Frenchmen
wholy
to
our
deuotion
;
and
acknowledge
their
error
expressing
to
be
sorrie
for
it
.
To
these
conditions
they
gladly
assented
,
and
the
Generall
sent
his
Chancellor
to
vs
with
such
a
Letter
as
was
desired
and
expected
from
him
.
Then
the
Vice
Consul
represented
to
our
Admirall
what
preiudice
it
might
bee
to
the
Merchants
of
Aleppo
;
if
we
carried
away
the
French
vessels
,
and
after
ransacking
,
finding
there
was
nothing
worth
carriage
in
them
(
for
they
had
landed
althings
during
the
fight
,
and
sunke
most
of
their
Gunnes
)
we
onely
tooke
their
Flags
out
of
them
and
some
Brasse-bases
to
serue
our
beats-head
,
besides
what
our
Saylors
pillaged
(
which
was
some
good
quantitie
of
money
all
that
was
left
.
)
And
sent
for
our
men
of
from
them
that
night
and
returnd
them
the
next
day
to
their
owners

assuring
them
of
quiet

and
they
as
many

vs

they
killed

hurt
some
few

bee
to
God
)

spoyled

Masts

and
shot
some
of
our
shippes

but
in
no
dangerous
places
.
By
their
acknowledgement
afterwards
wee
killed
them
nine
and
fortie
men
outright
besides
a
great
number
hurt
.
Their
vessels
were
much
spoiled
,
about
which
they
were
at
worke
,
repayring
them
all
the
while
,
wee
staid
in
the
Road
and
brought
their
vessels
vpon
the
Careene
to
stoppe
their
leakes
betwixt
wind
and
water
.
In
euidence
how
much
they
had
lost
of
their
former
pride
.
We
saw
the
next
day
a
Frigot
comming
into
which
wee
mand
out
our
boat
,
and
shee
tooke
her
within
4.

length
of
the
Admirall
Galleasse
,
and
our
Sattia
in
chase
of
that
Frigot
sailed
within
a
boats
lenght
round
about
the
other
Galleasse
to
which
the
Frigot
betooke
her selfe
for
aide
,
Insteed
of
presenting
this
they
sent
vs
very
courteous
salutations
by
our
men
who
brought
the
Frigot
to
vs
.
And
whereas
formerly
they
did
set
their
Watch
with
much
ceremonie
with
Drummes
,
Trumpets
and
Gunnes
,
and
so
like
wise
discharged
it
,
now
they
passe
their
time
with
much
silence
.
Whilst
wee
performe
duly
all
the
rites
that
belong
to
them
that
haue
the
superioritie
