The two largest boats were now + ordered out, and a party, well armed (among whome were Peters and + myself), proceeded to look for an opening in the reef which appeared + to encircle the island. After searching about for some time, we + discovered an inlet, which we were entering, when we saw four large + canoes put off from the shore, filled with men who seemed to be well + armed. We waited for them to come up, and, as they moved with great + rapidity, they were soon within hail.
