crew ; and having received him on board, they bent some 

 of the sails, unmoored the ship, and with a hght breeze 

 stood out of the Bay. Lieut. Gamble and his companions 

 found their confinement almost insupportable, on account 

 of the close air of their prison, and having several times 

 requested to be admitted into the cabin, the two latter 

 were at length released. By the persuasions of midship- 

 man Clapp, however, the former was also soon after 

 brought into the cabin, and seated on a chest, near the sky- 

 light, with two men to guard him, armed with his own 

 pistols, loaded and cocked. Lieut. Gamble again desired 

 one of these men to inform him, who were of his party, and 

 what were their names. He answered, that they amounted 

 at least to twelve or fourteen in number ; and that their 

 names were, 



Thomas Belcher, boatswain's mate. 



Robert George, seaman. 



Richard Power, do. 



James Duncan, cooper. (Prisoner of war.) 

 William Stiles, do. 

 Martin Stanley, ord. seaman. 

 Joseph Curtis, 



James Morrison, (Prisoner of war.) 



Lewis Ronsford, do. 



James Bantum, 



Jeremiah Workman, 



Robert Lambries, (Prisoner of war.) 



William Clark, do. 



Among all these, lieut. Gamble had the satisfaction' to 

 find, there was not a single American ; and it is therefore 

 with peculiar pleasure, that I here insert the names of 

 those who took no part with the mutineers. 



William Worth, seaman. 

 Richard Sansbury, O. seaman. 

 Joseph Burnham, do. 

 Benjamin Bispham, marine. 

 Peter Caddington, do. 

 John Pittenger, do. 

 Thomas Gibbs, cook.
