520 APPENDIX. 
Mocha in nineteen fathom. At five it became so black and threat- 
ning over the land, that although in six fathom, we could see 
neither shipping nor town. Having no land mark to guide us, we 
erroneously supposed ourselves to be to the north of the town ; but 
on the weather clearing, discovered that we were ten miles to the 
south of it. Trifling as was the distance, it was six days before we 
were able to beat up against the strong north-wester, which gener- 
ally kept us under our close-reefed top sails. On the 16th we an- 
chored in Mocha roads.
