Code entry
In 1668 the freebooter, Robert Searles, favored Florida with a visit.1 By a mirth provoking trick he entered the harbor at San Agustin and ransacked the town. In the confusion Woodward fled to the English and with them sailed to the Antilles. Within two years he was back in South Carolina, and ready once more to annoy the Spaniards. [Note 1 For the Searles attack on San Agustin in 1668 and the escape of Woodward see Carta del Licenciado francisco Sotolongo, Cura de la Yglesia de aquella Provincia de la Florida, San Agustin, July 4,1668
