Code entry
When Governor James Colleton arrived in Charles Town in November 1686... In a strongly worded diplomatic protest, Colleton [said] The same Sieur de Grammont who had invaded Guale Province had also taken an English vessel, he told Governor Quiroga, and pirates had since landed on St. Johns Island to plunder cattle and hogs. "It is very hard we should answer for the vile deeds of pyrates and robbers," he said, "being sometymes plundered ourselves" (Colleton, 1688). (Bushnell SS)
