Pr.
Dr. Solander, Mr. Banks, and feveralothers, wefitto vifit Tootahau, to fee if
they could obtain any hogs j and, after going much farther 'than where he ufually
refides, they met with him, and queen Oboreah: they treated them with fair pro-
mifes, and invited them to flay the night with them, which they accepted ; but,
in the morning, fome miffed their flocking?, others their jackets and waiilcoats 5
amongft the reft, Mr. Banks loft his white jacket and waiftcoat, with iilver frogs j
in the pockets of which were a pair of piftols, and other things: they enquired
' for them, but could get no account of them; and they came away greatly diffatif-
fied, having obtained but one pig.
On the 12th, we received an account from the natives refpedling two. ihips
that had been on. their coaft j and we gathered from them that the crew were Spaniards,
and that they had introduced the lues venerea amongft them J.
On the 15th, the oven-rake wasftolen, which, joined to the other things that
had been pilfered from us by fome of the natives, and the infolent treatment Mr.
Monkhoufe met with, determined the captain to feek redrefs j he feized twenty-
feven double canoes, with fails, which happened to be at the point, in the morning,
fome of which came from another ifland j and he threatened to burn them if
the ftolen things fhould not be returned. Before noon they brought back the rake*
but we had no account of the reft j and the canoes were ftill kept in cuftody.
Tootahau was much difpleafed, and would not fufter any of the natives to fupply
us with bread-fruit, cocoa-nuts, or apples. 'At this time the weather was very
wetj P. Brifcoe, one of Mr. Banks’s fervants, was very bad of a nervous fever,
and we had but little hopes of his recovery, having been, by a, long courfe of
ficknefs, reduced to very great weaknefs; and,, in this hot climate, it is a long
time before an European recovers his ftrength, as I have known by experience.
On the 19th, in the evening, after dark, Oboreah, the queen, and feveral of
her attendants, came from Opare, Tootahau’s palace, in a double canoe, laden
with plantains, bread-fruit, and a hogj but brought none of the ftolen things with
t T h efe ihips, we afterwards learned atB atav ia, were fitted out by the French, and commanded by
M . B ougainville.
