1770. ROUND THE WORLD. 373^ 



longitude 184° 39' W. At eight in the evening, we 

 were within two leagues of the land which we had 

 discovered in the morning, having run ten leagues since 

 noon : the land which then bore S. (53 W., now bore 

 N. 59 W., at the distance of seven or eight leagues, 

 and had the appearance of an island. Between this 

 land and Cape Egmont lies the bay, the west-side 

 of which was our situation at this time, and the land 

 here is of a considerable height, and diversified by 

 hill and valley.
