The Life of Captain Matthew Flinders

CHAPTER 4
37/52

At sunset saw two ships pass to windward, conjectured to be the Audacious and prize.

Employed splicing and knotting the rigging, and repairing sails, not one of which but had several shot through them.

The truck of the foretopgallant mast was likewise shot away.

A.M., thick foggy weather.

Saw the enemy at times north-north-west 4 or 5 miles.
