This fleet returned early in April, and in the same month was dispatched on the usual cruise to the southwards. One of the four - the Hart - was, however, to quit the rest near Ceylon and proceed to the Coromandel Coast; while a second - the Discovery was to be dispatched to the same destination at a later period of the voyage. The remaining two were to effect a junction at the Comoros with the fleet expected from England and return with them; but Weddell had orders to diverge from the rest to Gom broon, in order to pick up some silk which was expected to be lying there awaiting transport to Surat.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The English Factories in India, 1618-1669: A Calendar of Documents in the India Office, British Museum and Public Record Office The present volume covers only three years, as compared with the previous average of four; but it contains the same number of documents as the last instalment, viz. 320, and some of these are so important that it has been found necessary to deal with them at considerable length. Naturally, the chief source has been the India Office collections - particularly the Original Correspondence series, the Sural Factory Records, and the Marine Records. The Public Record Office has contributed only three documents; and the MSS. Department of the British Museum nineteen. No Indian Record Office has any for this period. As the preceding volumes contain many references to what has hitherto been known as the East Indies series at the Public Record Office, it may be well to note that that series has recently been renamed Colonial Office 77. Thirteen of the letters here dealt with have already been summarized in Mr. W. N. Sainsbury's Calendar of State Papers, Colonial, East Indies and Persia, 1630-34. With that volume Mr. Sainsbury's admirable series came to an end; and consequently in the present instalment we break ground which has been practically untouched by previous workers. Moreover, the period was a particularly eventful one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
