The crew of the ^finerva was composed of a 

 variety of nations; but the major part of them, 

 were English and Irish; and the officers told me, 

 that they had not above ten native Americans 

 amongst them. Grimes is the son of a snperan- 



country; upon which he pretended, that he was only taking the advantage 

 of going as passenger to Boston, in order to get to England from thence. 

 The next year, he wont to England and coniplainod, lliat on his arrival 

 at Boston, he was confined a prisoner, until he was exchanged; and lie 

 compelled me to pay him, all the wages which were due to him at tlie 

 time he onterofl on board the privateer. I was afterwards informefl, 

 that all the rest of the traitors (who entered from me and the other mer- 

 chants on the coast, in expectation of sharing liie i)hin(ler) were served 

 in the same manner. Clrimes artfully held out a share of the booty, to 

 inveigle the fishennen to enter with him, in order that he might replace 

 those men whom he had sent away in the different jirizes; otherwise he 

 would not have had men enow left, to navigate his own siiip; l)Ut on his 

 arrival at Boston, he threw them nil into j)ri.son, to cheat them of tlieir 

 share of the i)riz<*-money. The villains were served right, and Crimes 

 ucte<J in character.
