Laden with eight thousand gallons of rum at 1_s.8_d_.per gallon and with forty-five barrels, tierces and hogsheads of bread, flour, beef, pork, tar, tobacco, tallow and sugar--all at an estimated cost of L775--it was to sail for the Gold Coast.

There, after paying the local charges from the cargo, some 35 slave men were to be bought at 100 gallons per head, 15 women at 85 gallons, and 15 boys and girls at 65 gallons; and the residue of the rum and miscellaneous cargo was expected to bring some seventy ounces of gold in exchange as well as to procure food supplies for the westward voyage.
Recrossing the Atlantic, with an estimated death loss of a man, a woman and two children, the surviving slaves were to be sold in Jamaica at about L21, L18, and L14 for the respective classes.

Of these proceeds about one-third was to be spent for a cargo of 105 hogsheads of molasses at 8_d_.

per gallon, and the rest of the money remitted to London, whither the gold dust was also to be sent.

The molasses upon reaching Newport was expected to bring twice as much as it had cost in the tropics.
