In a separate box with address: Register of such books and papers as are being dispatched this day per the ship De Hoenderloo for the Chamber of Middelburg to the Fatherland, namely: A Pay Journal and Ledger of this Castle of the year 1785/86. Ditto of the ship De Meermin. Ditto of the ship Katwijk aan den Rijn. Ditto of the stranded ship, 1786. A ditto of the ship Spik, 1785/86. A Free Book of the European inhabitants here. A Muster Roll of all the military personnel garrisoning the Battalion of the Cape of Good Hope, ending the last day of June 1786. A Muster Roll of the Swiss Regiment de Meuron, with all the changes that occurred since the last day of June 1786 until the last day of December following. An account concerning the pay disbursed to the aforementioned regiment in the year 1785/86. A pay memorandum with an annexed pay account dated 19 April 1787. In the Castle of Good Hope, 24 April 1787. Matthiessen and No. 23. Right Honorable, Highly Esteemed, and Venerable Sir: I take the liberty with all respect to report to Your Right Honorable and Venerable Honor that on the 27th, having been overtaken by a heavy hurricane, I lost my main mizzen mast, as well as my fore-topmast, foresail yard, and fore-topsail yard, and became so leaky that on the 29th I already had 11 feet of water in the ship. However, on that day, the weather somewhat calming, and having thrown overboard some artillery along with all the goods that were between decks, in the gunner's room, and in the scuppers, I obtained the opportunity to reach the heaviest leaks and stop them somewhat, and entered here on the 13th past. And here I have unloaded: the linens that had all been submerged underwater I had washed here, as they were not yet rotten. Of the cinnamon, not 200 bales will have gotten wet. Half of the pepper has gotten wet, and that I have had dried as much as possible. Half of the pepper, cardamom, and cotton yarns have also remained dry, but all the coffee is ruined and the saltpeter dissolved. The cowries and sappanwood were salvaged, but the Cape packages and other goods, to my regret, with the exception of 4 packages, went overboard in the hurricane. I have purchased a stranded ship here that was well provided with a complete rigging and sails as well as other equipment goods, and otherwise it would have been difficult to obtain new rigging here. It now lies in the dock to be repaired, and I cannot determine my departure because it will mostly depend on the shipwrights, who are presently very scarce here, as they have much work to do on some of the ships that were pulled from the beach. For the same hurricane raged here some days earlier so fiercely that of the 29 ships lying here, 28 were driven onto the beach; the colony also suffered greatly, so that the damage is estimated at twenty million. I have engaged here as my correspondent Mr. J. B. Maneron and Company to provide me with everything, and I shall then draw bills of exchange on the Company. Upon unrigging the foremast, I found that it is also cracked and rotten at the top. The Count of Rechteren is also still lying here with the National ship Princes Louisa and will also not be able to depart for the time being. I could not venture to send the Company's papers over, because I heard that it was doubtful whether the ship would indeed call at the Cape, as many people thought. And as time does not permit me to write to Your Right Honorable and Venerable Honor more extensively, since I must attend to everything in person myself, as none of my officers command the language, I therefore conclude and close this, recommending myself to Your Right Honorable's favorable protection, having the honor to be with all respect and submission, Underneath: Right Honorable, Highly Esteemed, and Venerable Sir, Your Right Honorable, Highly Esteemed and Venerable's very obedient and humble servant. Was signed: J. ten Anker In the margin: Aboard the Company's ship De Paarl, anchored in Port Louis on the Island of Mauritius, 6 February 1787. P.S. The passengers have gone with the permission of the Commandant, the Count of Rechteren, with a French ship to the Cape, because I may possibly remain here for a long time, and everything is enormously expensive for those people who are but moderately provided; as also the little son of the [illegible] exile, who went along under my supervision and whom, at his request, I entrusted to the passengers. The Company's ship De Draak arrived on 11 August of the past year at Tuticorin, and in the same month at Colombo, having missed the Cape and called at [illegible] for water; it had 126 dead and still many sick when it arrived at Tuticorin, where I was lying at the time. The consigned goods that were on it, I may have had some of them, but most will be sent over per the other ships. Agrees: E. Diemel Sworn Clerk [illegible] Duplicate No. 24 No. 22

J. van de Graaff No 26 Report. To the Right Honourable Highborn Rigorous Sir Cornelis Jacob van de Graaff, Governor and Director of the Cape of Good Hope and its Dependencies, etc., etc., etc. Right Honourable Highborn Rigorous Sir! Whereas it has pleased Your Right Honourable Highborn Rigour to commission the undersigned officers of the artillery to take inventory of, inspect, and examine the muskets and weapons coming from the stranded national vessel Holland; they therefore declare to have performed the same with the utmost accuracy and to have found as follows: 1. Of the 77 muskets mentioned in the commission of 20 September of the previous year, no more than 28 are good as can be seen from the accompanying list; however, these too are unsuitable for our garrison, since their proportions differ from those of the garrison and they are even of two different proportions. The 49 remaining muskets are entirely defective because their barrels are bent and the bores are full of flaws, and therefore cannot be straightened anymore. 2. Of the 67 bayonets mentioned in the same commission of 20 September, no more than 24 are serviceable, but they cannot be used for the muskets of the garrison.

Cape of Good Hope 3. Of the 52 pistols mentioned under the same commission, no more than 1 is defective, but the stocks and mountings of most of the good ones needed to be repaired and renewed, which, costing much here, means that these good pistols can therefore only be estimated at half of their value. 4. There are 56 sabers, of which 38, mentioned in the aforementioned commission, are completely defective, the hilts and blades being heavily rusted; these are of the old cutlasses and thus unfit for any use. The 18 remaining (subsequently retrieved by the commission appointed under date of 10 Jan: of this year for the transport of the cannons from the wrecked ship) are, as was said of the good muskets, of no use for this garrison. 5. The remaining weapons that were subsequently retrieved from the said ship, consisting of the following: 175 cartridge pouches, 31 patron pouches, 55 sword belts, 55 shoulder straps, 9 drum straps, 1 wooden drum without skins, 4 drumsticks, and 14 boarding axes, we have had to consider all unserviceable, because the leather on the pouches and straps has been rendered useless for the garrison by the sea.

The 25 Cannons of 24 lb are generally good and serviceable, but are only about 17 Calibers long; and there are 26 Naval Carriages for them, which on land, if necessary when the trunnion holes are fitted with iron plates, the remaining ironwork repaired, and new trucks made for them, can be used; however, it would be better if entirely new Naval Carriages were made. 2. The 26 Cannons of 18 lb are indeed serviceable, but several of them, as can be seen from the List, are marked with honeycombs in the chase. Cannon No. 13 in particular has two very notable honeycombs, and although the defect is found in the chase, the undersigned are of the opinion that this piece should be considered unserviceable. The remaining defects found on some of the aforementioned pieces are, with humble correction, in the opinion of the undersigned, not of such a nature that the same pieces should be rejected on account of them. There are 24 Naval Carriages for them, which, as stated for the 24-pounders, can be used, except that some new axles would be required for the broken and missing ones. 3. The 16 Cannons of 8 lb are generally good and serviceable and are about 22 Calibers long; there are also 14 Naval Carriages for them, which, however, are unfit for use on land; if one wished to use these 16 Cannons as position pieces, Field Carriages would need to be made for them. 4. The remaining Ammunition Goods that were salvaged before and during this Commission consisted of no more than what is specified here below, namely: 283 Pieces Cannonballs of 24 lb 122 ditto of 18 lb 39 Grapeshot of 24 lb 7 ditto of 18 lb 17 Bar-shots of 24 lb 3 ditto of 18 lb

Copy Extract from the Journal kept on board the Company frigate-ship De Meermin, on the cruise around the Cape Cape of Good Hope, 20 March 1787 Gentlemen, However much I may consider the leave I have just obtained to return to France as offering me the hope of a rest that I would enjoy in my homeland, I take an even greater pleasure in regarding it as another means to emphasize to the Court of France the advantages I have found among you when I had to handle the affairs of His Majesty, whether in Council or with each of the members in particular. It is a truth that I intend to record in the report I am going to render of my mission, just as I consider it my duty to give you, Gentlemen, the assurance of my gratitude and of the regret I would feel at leaving this Colony, if I did not retain the flattering hope of returning to resume my duties when the affairs that call me to France are completed. I have the honour to inform you, Gentlemen, that I am determined to take advantage of the opportunity of the ship La Cléomène to make my return to France. My greatest satisfaction at this moment is to be able to present to you Monsieur Trublet, whose talents and wisdom have earned him from the minister the appointment in my place during my absence, and the continuation if unexpected events should keep me in France. His personal qualities are a sure guarantee to me that he will be agreeable to you and that your obliging dispositions regarding everything that concerns the French nation will always follow the occasions when they are requested of you, since until now I have only had to ask for them to obtain them. As for what concerns Monsieur Trublet, I answer to you, Gentlemen, with an assurance that he will not belie, that you will always find him filled with the sentiments of esteem and respect that I have often taken pleasure in offering to you, and which I beg you to receive at this moment because they are the expression of my heart. I am with respect, Gentlemen, your very humble and very obedient servant. Signed: Percheron Agreed No. 29 Extract from the Journal kept on board the Company frigate-ship De Meermin, on the cruise around the Cape Sir, It is only with great regret that we have learned, from the very obliging letter you did us the honour of writing to us, that your departure for France is near; but we hope, and the contents of yours give us reason to flatter ourselves, that it will not be forever that we are deprived of a minister who has constantly given us proofs of his attachment to our nation, and who has rendered very essential services to this establishment. The flattering acknowledgment that it pleased you, Sir, to give us regarding the favourable disposition that you have constantly experienced from the Council when it was a matter of treating the affairs of His Majesty your master, is very agreeable to us; and it is no less flattering for us, the advantageous mention that you intend to make of it in the report that you are going to render of your mission to His Majesty. Allow us, Sir, to testify to you on this occasion how much we are convinced that it is to your merits that we particularly owe that the happy harmony has always subsisted between the two reciprocal nations; and that is one more reason that makes us desire your return here. We shall inform our Lords and Masters of your departure by the first opportunity, and we shall await from them the necessary orders to admit Monsieur Trublet in the capacity in which he will replace you and for which he is appointed by the French minister. And we can assure you, Sir, that as for us, Monsieur Trublet, whose good qualities and merits are known to us, is very agreeable to us, and we propose to give him proofs of the esteem we have for him, and no less for him the considerations that we shall always have for what concerns you particularly. We wish you a safe journey, begging you to grant us the continuation of your friendship, assuring you that we are with great esteem and a very distinguished consideration, Sir, your very humble servants.

Duplicate No 29. No: 30 Extract from the journal kept on board the Company's frigate Meermin, on the cruise. Report in the manner of a daily narrative, drawn up and most respectfully submitted to the Right Honorable Mr. Cornelis Jacob van de Graaff, Governor of Cabo de Goede Hoop and its dependencies, etc., etc., etc., as well as the Honorable and Respected Political Council, by the Captain-Lieutenant and Commander on the permanent frigate the Meermin, Hans Barends, along with the Lieutenants Johan David Sluiter, Johan Nothling, and Jurriaan de Vries, appointed to that vessel. The aforementioned frigate the Meermin having been dispatched, in accordance with the honored resolution of the well-mentioned Right Honorable Governor and Honorable and Respected Political Council dated 12 December of the previous year, to survey the fairway off Caab Anguilhas, the aforementioned authorities of the same were ordered to survey there with the utmost possible exactitude with the lead, in accordance with the instructions of the High Governing Lords Majores in the Fatherland, within the area marked with red lines on the chart expressly provided for that purpose, and by cross-bearings of the land, to note as accurately as feasible the rocks or reefs that might be discovered within the marked area on the chart, and furthermore, upon return here, to give such a report of these findings as would be necessary to inform the aforementioned Lords Masters with certainty regarding what their High Honors had pleased to require, for the prevention of such fatal accidents as befell the China return ship Brederoode at that place in the year 1785. The aforementioned frigate the Meermin having been prepared for this ordered expedition: On Sunday the 24th of September, set sail from this Cape anchorage to off Robben Island, where from Monday the 25th ditto we had to remain at anchor due to contrary winds and calms until Friday the 29th ditto, when setting sail from there, our course was set toward Caab Anguilhas, and arrived on Monday the 1st of January 1787 at noon off that Cape. The dead reckoning course and distance over the 24 hours being South 24 miles, the dead reckoning latitude 35 degrees 1 minute and longitude 36 degrees 5 minutes, as well as the observed South latitude 34 degrees 58 minutes. Took bearings of the south point of Caab Anguilhas East by North, and the Hangklip North-Northwest 1/2 North, which bearing comes out to the South latitude of 34 degrees 58 minutes, longitude 36 degrees 2 minutes, so that we found ourselves 0 degrees 3 minutes, or 3/8 of a mile, further west than the dead reckoning. In the afternoon at three bells, took bearings of Rio Dole North 1/2 West and the point of Caab Anguilhas Northeast, approximately 4 miles, in a depth of 55 fathoms, rocky ground. We then shortened sail in order to sound all the better, and one of the Lieutenants, together with a helmsman, was stationed at the masthead on the lookout to see if, with the high seas, they could discover any breakers. The wind being Southwest by West with a fresh topgallant breeze, cruised back and forth between North and South, and as much as the wind permitted, at a distance of 4, 3, to 2 1/2 miles from the shore, where we continually sounded in 55 to 54 fathoms, sharp and rocky ground, deepening toward and away from the shore to 80 fathoms of water on soft muddy ground. At sunset, took bearings of the point of Caab Anguilhas Northeast by East 3 degrees North; estimated ourselves then 5 miles from the South point of Caab Anguilhas in a depth of 80 fathoms, soft muddy ground. We then hauled close to the wind under small sail to await the day. The wind during the night being South and West-Southwest, varying from a moderate breeze to a topgallant breeze with a dark sky; sounded every four bells in depths of 85 to 90 fathoms, sandy muddy ground. Tuesday the 2nd of January. Had the wind with a fresh to light topgallant breeze from the West, South, South-Southwest, Southwest, West, and West by North, under a thick overcast sky, with high swells from the South; could see no land. Therefore, kept her lying under small sail to the South until the sky cleared; then tacked to the North-Northwest and made sail. At ten o'clock saw land to the North by East and North, which however could not be recognized due to the thick fog lying upon it. At noon, took bearings of the point of Caab Anguilhas Northeast, approximately 6 miles. We then came close to the wind again to sound and cruise from the West side; sailed in 90 fathoms, soft muddy ground, at the dead reckoning South latitude of 35 degrees 11 1/2 minutes, longitude of 37 degrees 27 minutes, the observed South latitude being 35 degrees 13 minutes.

Extract from the Journal kept on board the Company's Frigate- Ship de Meermen, on the Cruise In the afternoon had a stiff topgallant breeze, under a hazy sky, at three glasses took a bearing on the point of Caab Anguilhas North-North-East, estimated 3½ to 4 miles, reduced sail in order to sound better and more conveniently, tacked back and forth against the wind, from the North to the South because the wind was westerly, and approached the point of Caab Anguilhas to the distance of two miles until we had passed the same, without discovering the rock indicated on the chart, and thus found that the same could not lie so far from the shore, and that also the Reef which forms from the point of the aforesaid Cape stretched not straight to the South, but rather South-South-West by West-South-West from that point; therefore tacked to 1¾ and 1½ miles closer to the shore, in order to take the bearing and sounding there, with which we steadily continued, and passed the reef a South-South-West of the point of Caab Anguilhas at 24 to 25 fathoms foul, rocky ground. At four glasses and the dogwatch saw the flat sea beach in the bight of the vleeschbaay, could however obtain no bearing of the point of that bay, because of the fog that lay upon it; then steered back and forth, passed depths of 50, 53 Fathoms sand bottom and at that time took a bearing on Caab Anguilhas to the North-West by North, circa 3 miles from us, but could, because of the thick fog that lay upon the land, take no other bearing. At sunset took a bearing on the southernmost point of Caab Anguilhas to the North-West by West and the inner or the North point of that Cape to the North-East 3/20 East, together with the point of Rio dolee East-North-East by West-North-West, estimated then to be 4 to 4½ miles from the South point of Caab Anguilhas, had steadily the depth of 50 to 52 Fathoms sand bottom, and the wind with a stiff topsail breeze from the West-South-West to South-West. And since we now, pursuant to the received orders, had surveyed the fairway everywhere outside to the west, to the south, and to the east of Caab Anguilhas at the place or the entire section A: B: C: D indicated on the Chart, with all possible accuracy, both through cross- bearings and with the lead, without having been able to discover anything other than that which was already previously known to navigation, we therefore resolved, upon a favorable opportunity, to return back to the Table Bay here. No. 29 Wednesday the 3rd to Sunday the 14th of January Extract from the Journal kept on board the Company's Frigate- Ship de Meermen, on the Cruise Had continual storm and contrary winds until on the last-mentioned date at night with a fierce South-East wind we came to anchor under Robben Island, but having lain there not even a quarter of an hour before our daily hawser, we were struck off our anchors by the strong winds and became adrift, wherefore we were compelled to choose the sea again, being delayed by the southerly winds that steadily persisted, until Wednesday the 7th of February, when in the fore- noon we safely came to anchor here in this Table Bay. This voyage having thus been happily completed under the guidance of Providence, and during the same all seamanship having been exercised, and all possible means having been employed, to fulfill the objective of the Expedition with which the undersigned were primarily charged, without, however, any discoveries having been made other than those already stated hereinbefore. And the undersigned take the liberty to submit herewith additionally an Extract from the Journal kept on this Expedition, in which the depths, bearings and observations are exactly and accurately recorded, and to which most respectfully referring, we cause this to serve as a humble report. underneath stood On the Frigate ship de Meermin lying anchored in Table Bay the 13th of March 1787. was signed H: Barendse, I: D: Sluyter, J: Nothling, I: De Vries.

Afternoon stiff Topgallant Breeze, hazy sky, at 3 bells, the point of Caap Aguelhas bore North-East by North about 3½ to 4 miles, reduced sail, to be able to sound properly. Cruised back and forth from the North and before the wind, to the south, as the wind was west, and approached the point of Caap Aguilhas to a distance of 2 Miles, until the same was passed, saw then that the rock on our chart was not so far from the shore, and also formed an entire Reef up to the point, also not due south of the point, but lay South-Southwest 7/00 South: stood in then toward the shore to 1¾ to 1½ and sounded constantly and kept good lookout, here beside the bearing, depth and nature of the Grounds and distances from the shore, as Exactly as has been possible; had passed the Reef on the South-Southwest of the point of Anguilhas at 24 to 25 Fathoms Foul rocky ground Reckoned South latitude 35 degrees 11 Longitude 37 degrees 27 Observed South latitude 35 13 2 January: fresh and moderate to light Topgallant Breeze, thick shifting sky all around, could see no land through the thick sky, high swell from the Southwest, kept it under easy sail to the south, until it should clear up, at the relief of the watch saw a Rose in the East, the Wind suddenly Southwest with Drizzle Dogwatch, calm to light, moderate and fresh Topgallant Breeze, thick sky, Depth as before. — First watch, the Wind Southwest and West-Southwest Moderate Light breeze and calm, sounded every 4 bells, depth 85 to 90 fathoms, Sandy sticky ground Turn over 2.

duplicate Continuation of the 2 January: Dogwatch, with the 4 glasses saw in the bight of the Flesh Bay, flat sandy beach with a white patch; could get no bearing of the point, because of the fog that lay upon the same; tacked back and forth, passed the depth of 50 and 53 fathoms sandy ground; took bearings at that time of Cape Agulhas, northwest by north, circa 3 miles; could, because of the fog that lay on the land, obtain no further bearings. At sunset took bearings, the southernmost point of Cape Agulhas northwest by west, and the inner or northeast point of the same north by east, and the point of Rio Dolce northwest by west, estimated our position then from the south point of Agulhas 4 to 4½ miles, continually 50 to 52 fathoms sandy ground, further the wind west-southwest to west-northwest, stiff topsails breeze, hauled close to the wind to the south because the wind drew southerly. First watch, moderate to light breeze, overcast squally sky, high sea from the southwest, doubled the lookouts. Because we have now, according to the accompanying written orders, cruised and sounded the fairway outside, west, south, and east of Cape Agulhas within the sector A, B, C, D, with all possible precision, and kept look out with good lookouts, and with the high running sea have discovered nothing other than what is already known to our seafarers, we do not doubt that we have complied with the orders of our High Government, and resolve, at the first favorable opportunity, to steer Capeward. — From the 3 January to the 14 ditto delayed by storm and contrary winds, until Sunday the 14th at night at half past ten o'clock, with a fierce east-southeast wind came to anchor under Robben Island before the daily and bower anchor, and after having lain for a quarter of an hour, parted from both anchors, and went adrift, and had to put out to sea under reefed courses, and delayed by the southerly winds that blew for a long time, until Wednesday the 7 February in the morning at half past ten o'clock arrived at the roadstead of Cape of Good Hope: Thus done on the frigate Schipdoorn the 7 February 1737 H Barendse J: Sluys J: Hothling De Vries 32 List of such persons as are repatriating on the below-mentioned vessels for the Chambers designated therewith from this Government, with indication of which of them enjoys a full, half, or no bonus.

Declaring nothing more, the Appearers gave as reasons for their knowledge as stated in the text, offering to confirm the same at all times. Three engrossed copies of the same tenor having been issued of this. Thus Transacted In the Castle of Good Hope, at the secretariat of Justice in the presence of the Clerks Coenraad Nelson and Jan Pieter Saure as witnesses, who, along with the Appearers and me, the secretary, have also duly signed the minute hereof.
