Thursday 21 April 1836

The Wind cont^d all Night from N,E, but at Day-light
it lower’d into a gentle Air, which kept shifting about
from North to West, all Day  _______  At 6, P,M, we
came in sight of part of a Wreck, consisting of a
lower Mast, and Yard, a top Mast and Yard,  ___  with
a few Spar’s,  ___  round Top,  ___  and the remnant of
Sails, Rigging, &c, all of which had no doubt,
been carried away from some unfortunate Vessel, in
the awful Gales of the 27^th, 28^th,, Ul^t, We took only
One Spar, as our Decks, are already too much lumber^d,
for stowing any more,  __  but they will be a good prize, to
a Ship, that can make room for them  __________
