Plymouth to Madeira and the Streight of Magellan (continued)

We sailed again on the 12th, and I was then f1rst acquainted with the particulars of our voyage by Captain Wallis, who gave me a copy of his instructions, and appointed Port Famine in the Streight of Magellan to be the place of rendezvous, if we should happen to be separated.

I was now convinced that I had been sent upon a service to which my vessel and her equipment were by no means equal, but I determined at all events to perform it in the best manner I was able.
