The Spaniards now assumed the aggressive. Privateers swarmed the Caribbean waters and played havoc with English commerce. From Georgia to New York they terrorized the northern mainland coast. Carolina and Georgia plantations were sacked.1 [Note 1 For the sacking of Carr's plantation in 1741, see Egmont's Journal (Ga. Col. Rec., V), 484, 529. For Spanish captures, see Ga. Col. Rec., IV, supplement (Atlanta, 1908), 117, 223-224; ibid., VI, 370; Clowes, The Royal Navy, III, 264-265] Within the year ending August, 1741, more than thirty English prizes were taken into the harbor of San Agustin alone.
