Departed this life our dear friend Nancy the Goat having been the Captain's companion on a former voyage round the Globe, but her spirited disposition for adventure led her to undertake a second voyage of Cir- cumnavigation ; But the various changes of Climate, and sudden transition from the Polar Colds, to the tropical heats of the Torrid zone, prov'd too much for a constitution naturally deli- cate.

9 Hoskins recorfls this incident: "On the zsd having some rice up to air, our best she goat got at it, eat so much that it swel'd her belly and caused her death; this was the more grievous as it depriv'd us of the greatest delicacy we had in the Ship, her milk, which made our tea so much the more palatable."
