From Mose in Secondary Literature by Amy July 13, 1740 Sir By a deserter who came here from St. AnastasiaI have learned that the frigates of the armament are six in number; the admiral's ship of 40 canons [cannons] with two hundred men, and the other of 20 with 150 men; the deserter said that he had not been on board, but had heard this from some of their seamen. As this news may be of service to you I send it that you may reflect on it, and what the prisoner said of the Frigate Bermuda of 50 Page: [55]54 [djvu image | jpg image] canons [cannons], and another of 40 of which he did not know the location. I must inform you that when the prisoner told me this, he said he had not visited the vessel of 50 canons [cannons], but that a frigate was anchored in front of the bar of St John'sand that the Genl. [General] said it was the Bermuda of 50 canons [cannons]. Manuel de Montianoto J.F. [Juan Francisco] de Guemes. (205)
