Received on board a fine supply of fresh provisions and vegetables for the crew.

In this beautiful island all the fruits of the temperate and many of the torrid zone are produced.

Pine-apples, pears, plums, and melons were brought off to us.
We finished coaling, except seven or eight tons, by working until 9 P.M., when the men were fairly fagged out.

Hauled the barque off, and resolved to go out with what coal I had on board, as to finish entirely would involve a delay of Sunday..
