 he had been one of;
and that they had taken a great Number of Prisoners, all which were carry'd to
several Places by those that had taken them in the Fight, in order to feast upon
them, as was done here by these Wretches upon those they brought hither.
    I caus'd Friday to gather all the Skulls, Bones, Flesh, and whatever
remain'd, and lay them together on a Heap, and make a great Fire upon it, and
burn them all to Ashes: I found Friday had still a hankering Stomach after some

    The next Day after I came home to my Hutch with him, I began to consider
where I should lodge him, and that I might do well for him, and yet be perfectly
easy my self, I made a little Tent for him in the vacant Place between my two
Fortifications, in the inside of the last, and in the outside of the first; and
as there was a Door, or Entrance there into my Cave, I made a formal fram'd Door
