                           A TRUE ACCOUNT
                               OF THE
                               VOYAGE
                               OF THE
                    _Nottingham-Galley_ of _London_,
                       _John Dean_ Commander,
                              FROM THE
                    River _Thames_ to _New-England_,

                 Near which Place she was cast away on
               _Boon-Island_, December 11, 1710. by the
                 Captain's Obstinacy, who endeavour'd
               to betray her to the _French_, or run her
               ashore; with an Account of the Falsehoods
                    in the Captain's _Narrative_.

            And a faithful Relation of the Extremities the
                Company was reduc'd to for Twenty-four
                Days on that desolate Rock, where they
              were forc'd to eat one of their Companions
                who died, but were at last wonderfully
                            deliver'd.

                  The whole attested upon Oath, by

                   _Christopher Langman_, Mate;
                 _Nicholas Mellen_, Boatswain; and
              _George White_, Sailor in the said Ship.

                            PREFACE.


_We having been Sufferers in this unfortunate Voyage, had reason to
believe, from the Temper of our Captain, who treated us barbarously
both by Sea and Land, that he would misrepresent the Matter, as we now
find he has done in a late Pamphlet by him publish'd, intituled_, A
Narrative of the Sufferings, Preservation, and Deliverance of Captain
_John Dean_, and Company, in the _Nottingham_ Galley of _London_,
&c. London, _Printed by_ R. Tooky, _and Sold by_ S. Popping _at the_
Raven _in_ Pater-noster-Row, _and at the_ Printing Press _under the_
