This person, when brought to me, not only related readily the particulars of the usage in both cases, as I have now stated them, but that which he received himself.

He said that his own arm had been broken by the chief mate in Black River, Jamaica, and that he had also by the captain's orders, though contrary to the practice in merchant vessels, been severely flogged.

His arm appeared to be then in pain.

And I had a proof of the punishment by an inspection of his back.
I asked Matthew Pyke, if the crew in general had been treated in a cruel manner.

He replied, they had, except James Bulpin.
