I examined the barrel which was driven on shore, and soon found it was a barrel of gunpowder; but it had taken water, and the powder was caked as hard as a stone; however, I rolled it farther on shore for the present, and went on upon the sands, as near as I could to the wreck of the ship, to look for more.
Megvizsgáltam a hordót, amiben puskaport találtam, de a hordó annyira átázott, hogy a por szinte kővé vált benne. Mégis kigördítettem a partra, majd elindultam a roncsok irányába, azt remélve, hogy mást is találok.
