THE VOYAGE OF THE HURON AND THE HUNTRESS 



skipper and his crew continued trying to get the schooner to the eastward. The 

 next morning the wind came out from the "South and westward" enabling them 

 to get all sail on and take advantage of the fair breeze, and at 6:30 that morn- 

 ing they got in past Frezeland Point on Livingston Island and entered Yankee 

 Sound. At 9 Captain Davis sailed the Cecilia safely into Yankee Harbor, where 

 they "got along side the Ship, found all well." On board the Cecilia were 1,670 

 skins, 440 of which were "for schooner Huntress.'' Captain Davis also re- 

 ported that, during the shallop's absence, the brig Aurora, Captain Macy, had 

 arrived at Yankee Harbor, joining the other members of Captain Johnson's 

 New York fleet, already anchored here with the Stonington and Nantucket 

 vessels.
