Then night falling on the face of the earth, we hulled in the clear, till the cheerful light of the day had chased away the noisome darkness of the night, at which the we set forward toward our wished port; by the 30th day we obtained our expected desire, where we found the _Judith_ and the _Michael_, which brought no small joy unto the general, and great consolation to the heavy hearts of those wearied wights.
The 30th day of July we brought our ships into the Countess of Warwick's Sound, and moored them, namely these ships, the _Admiral_, the _Rear-Admiral_, the _Francis of Foy_, the _Bear_, _Armenel_, the _Salomon_, and the _Busse of Bridgewater_, which being done, our general commanded us all to come ashore upon the Countess Island, where he set his miners to work upon the mine, giving charge with expedition to despatch with their lading.
Our general himself, accompanied with his gentleman, divers times made roads into sundry parts of the country, as well to find new mines as also to find out and see the people of the country.

He found out one mine, upon an island by Bear's Sound, and named it the Countess of Sussex Island.

One other was found in Winter's Fornace, with divers others, to which the ships were sent sunderly to be laden.

In the same roads he met with divers of the people of the country at sundry times, as once at a place called David's Sound, who shot at our men, and very desperately gave them the onset, being not above three or four in number, there being of our countrymen above a dozen; but seeing themselves not able to prevail, they took themselves to flight, whom our men pursued, but being not used to such craggy cliffs, they soon lost the sight of them, and so in vain returned.
We also saw them at Bear's Sound, both by sea and land, in great companies; but they would at all times keep the water between them and us.

And if any of our ships chanced to be in the sound (as they came divers times), because the harbour was not very good, the ship laded, and departed again; then so long as any ships were in sight, the people would not be seen.
