Ladrones, and the Philippines.

The _Santa Anna_, which had still five hundred tons of goods in her, was

she drifted on shore, when the Spaniards managed to extinguish the
flames, and with the planks they had obtained and the sails and rigging
which had been landed, the trees in the neighbourhood supplying them
with masts and yards, they fitted her for sea, and before long contrived

Cavendish took a great liking to Ersola, and placed much confidence in
him as a pilot.  He seemed to merit this by the accurate way in which he
guided the ship across the Pacific.
