Between 4 and 5 P. M. faw a 
round ifland, which lies near 
theifland Mauritius. Imake 
this ifland to ly in the long dc . 
of 58 42 E. from London. I 
judge that this ifland and 
Don Mafcareen ought to be 
laid down 3 degrees more to 
the E c ard than moll cur 
books lays them in, for wc 
often tryd the current.
