a present of wyne, orenges, eggs, and fysh drest. And an ould man of
Miaco, now our neighbour, brought me a banketting box for a present.
His name is Ito Yoguiche Dono.
Sangero Samme, sonne to Foyne Samme, was this day made sure to a
doughter of a noble man of Crates.
Their was 210 _cattis_ ould junk or rops put out to toose[122] for
occom, wherof 50 _cattis_ to Domingo, and 160 _cattis_ to Unquan the
China.
_January 6._--Sugen Dono of Crates sent to borrow a peare of _bubes_,
he haveing invited the King of Firando to dyner, in respect he had
geven or augmented his yearly stipend from 500 _gocos_ per anno. to
1000 per anno.
Capt. Speck came to the English howse with Derick de Vryz and others to
take leave, the great shipp being ready, as they said, to goe out. They
had byn with the kyng before they came to us, and, as it seemed, had
drunk hard. It is said they gave a present worth 5000 _taies_ to the
kinge, but I canot beleeve it. Once they have geven much in respect of
the prize they brought in, as also for lycence to carry out munision,
victuelles, and men for the Molucos.
_January 7._--The greate Duch shipp, called the _Ankewsen_, went out to
Cochi, and I went abord with our bark with 16 men, to rowe and helpe to
toe them out, as the king sent many barks to doe the lyke; and I carid
2 barilles wyne, 3 hense, 2 duckes, 3 fyshes, 20 loves fresh bread, and
a baskit of oringes, and dronke to their good voyage; which Capt. Speck
tooke in good parte, and sent his _jurebasso_ with complemento, _nifon
catange_.
Zanzebars wives brothers and her father were abord, and made peace with
Jno. Gorezano, our _jurebasso_.
_January 8._--We had made price before with Andrea Dittis for all our
lead at 6 _taies_ per _pico_; but now a Japon offring us 6½ _taies_ per
_pico_, he was content to let us sell hym the one halfe.
Also I receaved 3 letters from Langasaque, 1 from Jorge Durois with
16 falling bands at 7 _mas_ per band. And an ould China brought me a
present of China cakes.
_January 9._--This last night, about 10 a clock, 4 Portingale prisoners
ran away out of the Duch howse and are scaped and thought got to
Langasaque.
Yasimon Dono advised me of a man of his com from Miaco, who reporteth
of very fowle wether above, and that 70 or 80 barks are cast away per
meanes therof. God send us good news of ours sent to Osekay and Tushma.
_January 10._--Three of the Portingales which ran away were fownd per
meanes of men the King of Firando sent out after them, and brought back
againe to the Hollanders.
Gizamon Dono, Zanzabers wives brother, brought me 3 wilduckes for a
present. He tould me that word was brought to the kyng that 80 barkes
are cast away betwixt this and Shiminaseke now of late per torment,
most being laden with rise. God bless our bark sent with merchandize.
_January 11._--The king being ready to goe up to the Emperour, we laid
out a present and sent hym, I going after, accompanid with Mr. Nealson
and Mr. Osterwick:--
2 damaskt fowling peeces.
5 pec. white baftas of 20 Rs. _corg._
5 pec. blew byrams of 15 Rs. _corg._
5 pec. red zelas of 12 Rs. _corg._
5 pec. borall or foota chader.
5 pec. chader Cambaia.
5 pec. buxshaws.
The king tooke the present very kindly, offring us anything we would
demand, saying that, allthough he went up to the Emperour, yet he
had left such order with his governor that what we asked should be
fulfilled. This present was sent this day, because yisterday Soyeman
Dono came to aske what money the king owed upon bill, for that yt
should be paid forthwith. Whereupon it was thought fitt to goe with
this present before payment were made, otherwais yt might be thought it
was sent in respect he paid the money, or else, perhaps, in payinge of
it, he might have expected a greater present, in respect the Hollanders
gave soe much once. Howsoever, he seemed to take it in good parte, and
gave us a kind welcom with a colation, serveing us with his owne handes.
_January 14._--Letters came to Capt. Speck that the junk they sent for
Syam is per contrary wind put into Shashma in a port or haven called
Cata ura, and soe loose ther voyage.
And I paid 50 _tais_ plate bars to the fownder, advanced upon acco.,
for bras shivers and other matters with shot for ordinance, which he
is to cast for to send in the _Hozeander_. The 2 fownders are called
Jembio Dono and Scongero Dono.
There came certen caveleros Japons from Edo, and came to see the
English howse, and looked on such comodeties as we had, but bought non.
They report that the Emperour will have all the kyngs (or _tonos_) in
Japon to goe for Edo, and there to remeane for the space of 7 yeares,
and to carry their wives with them, and live every one in his howse
aparte, with a servant of the Emperours to be allwaies in company with
them--I meane with each one, to heare and see what passeth. This he
doeth to prevent them from insurrections, and will not have sonns nor
kynsmen, but the kinges them selves.
_January 15._--I wrot a letter to Mr. Eaton to Edo, per Toyamon Dono, a
merchant of that place, advising of my other sent 6 dais past, and here
withall sent as followeth, viz.:--
10 _cattis_ tobaco to his host, cost 2 mas 3 _condr._ _catty_.
33 eggs to his hostice, cost 1 _mas_ 9½ _condrins_.
10 _cattis_ tobaco to hym selfe, cost as _supra_.
02 Faccata gerdells for hym selfe for 3 _mas_ peece.
And advised withall that Mr. Wickham should make all the hast he could,
for that Capt. Coppendall and Mr. Nealson were very sick.
_January 16._--Rowland Thomas, the purcer of the _Hozeander_, being
drunk, did beat Mr. Dorington, master mate, Jno. Cocera the cook, and
the servantes in the howse.
_January 17._--There was receaved of the kinges plate this day three
hundred fyfty and seven _taies_ in plate of bars upon acco., sent from
Oyen Dono per Refioen Dono, kinges steward.
_January 18._--We reconed this day with Tomo Dono and rest for biskit,
and waid out as followeth, viz.:--
To Capt. Adames 0290 _cattis_.
To Syam voyag 0556 _cattis_.
To a present to Duche 0010 _cattis_.
To _Hozeander_ 3806 _cattis_.
------------
Som totall receaved 4662 _cattis_.
------------
And within night word was brought me how two of our shipps company were
fighting with swords one a hill a littell from our English howse. Soe
I went with Mr. Hunt the master and Mr. Osterwick and fownd them to be
Jno. Clough the guner and Jno. Driver an ordenary marrener, both being
drunken, and no hurt donne but that Driver had a scar on his forehead.
Soe I put them both in the bilbows till the next mornynge.
_January 19._--Our host of Tushma came to English howse, and brought a
present of walnuts and a Corea carpet or feltro. He tould me he brought
merchandiz to sell to pay me the money the pepper was sould for, for
that the money of the place he receaved for it was not good, as Niquan
the China whome I sent to receive it could witnes, he turning back
above 500 _taies_ in receving 120 _tais_.
Mr. Dorington, the mr. mate of _Hozeander_, mad show as though he were
lunatick, talking idly; but I thynk he counterfeteth. A strange kind
of people they are all of them which came in this shipp. Truly I canot
praise any one of them which are sea men.
The Hollanders shott ofe 8 or ten pec. ordinance out of the small shipp
and out of howse late within night. The occation we knew not, except
the junk went out or that they had hard news that gave them content.
_January 20._--I wrot a letter to Capt. Jourden to Bantam, how the
_Hozeander_ would be ready per the end of this moneth and how Mr.
Osterwick was to stay heare, with other accurants, and sent it per
conveance of Capt. Speck in the _Ankewsen_. I went to the Duch howse
and delivered Capten Speck my letter. He tells me the occation they
shot off the ordinance the last night was for that the King of Firando
came to drink a farewell with them before he went up, and that the
greate shipp and the junck would be ready to goe towardes Bantam within
7 or 8 daies at ferthest. He also tould me that he receved not letter
of the putting of their junck into Shashma, as it was reported unto me.
_January 21._--I delivered two hundred and threeskore rialles of 8 to
Andrea Dittis, the China Capt., to change into other plate for China
busynes. More, delivered unto hym at same tyme one bag Rs. of 8 as it
came out of England, containing one hundred pownd str., is fyve hundred
rialles of eight for same purpose. For both which sommes he is to bring
refined plate to send in the _Hozeander_. This is donne because the
nobles in China should think this plate or rialls com from the English,
rather then to present them with refined plat of this place. The China
Capt. sent Niquan his kinsman with these rialls to bring plate back
forthwith.
Jno. Osterwick going abroad with Mr. Nealson got a littell more drinke
than was needfull, and the other was littell better. Yet Jno. Osterwick
fell into termes of comparison, disinabling each one but hymselfe. I
know not what to say of hym but that he is an overweenyng prowd yowth,
I haveing had no experience yet but only by report of Capt. Coppindale.
And late in the night, after we were gon to bed, the kinges _bongew_
sent to borrow our boate, or _foyfone_,[123] for the king service;
which I lent hym.
The small junck was retorned to the China Capten, but much out of
reprations, which must be amended according to promis, for without her
we could not have carined our shipp, and soe she had lost her monson
this yeare.
_January 23._--I gave 6 _taies_ plate bars to Matinga to provide things
against the new yeare. And I paid a bar of plate to Domingo my boy, to
buy hym aparell, containing 2 _tay_ 1 _ma_. And I reconed with Jno.

_January 24._--I paid fyftie _taies_ plate bars to Andrea Dittis, China
Capt., for reprations to his junk lent to carin our ship _Hozeander_,
she haveing broken and spoild the junck that the carpenters asked
100 _taies_ to have mended her. Newes was brought to towne that the
Emperour is dead; but I beleeve rather it is a fable and geven out of
purpose to see how people wold take the matter. Once the ould man is
subtill.
_January 25._--Damian Marin fell out with Jno. de Lievana about
comparisons betwixt the English and Duch, Damian takeing parte with the
Duch and Jno. with the English.
_January 26._--The king sent Soyemon Dono, Skrayamon Dono, and another
to look upon our comodeties, to the entent to buy for 2 or 3000 _tais_
at tyme. Soe we showed them samples of all and set price; but he took
lyking only of pepper at 6 _taies pico_, baftas at 10 R. per pies,
buxshaws at 9 _mas_ pec., boralles at 9 _mas_ pec., chint at 3½ _mas_
pec., and cader Macoy at 4 _mas_ pec. And tould the China Capt. he
would com and vizet me before he went to Miaco, to morrow or the next
day.
_January 27._--Capt. Speck came and requested that we would take into
our shipp for Bantam as much ebony as we could in not pestering our
shipp, and he would pay what fraight we thought fitt. And he sent me a
baril _morofack_ and 4 boxes swet meate.
Also the king sent me word he would com to breckfast to morrow mornyng.
So I mad the best provition I could, and the China Capt. sent me 2
powderd storkes, and Soyemon Dono a baskit oranges.
And Tome Donos sonne retorned from Miaco and sent me a present of Japan
figges. He tells me our bark with the goods is safe arived at Sackay,
but brought no letter from Mr. Eaton nor Mr. Wickham.
_January 28._--The King of Firando came to dyner to the English
howse, accompanid with 7 or 8 caveleros, and took in good parte the
entertaynment he had, and gave me a _keremon_, and a cloake to our
_jurebasso_. He said he was to stay 3 or 4 yeares above at Edo; soe I
think it is true that the _tonos_ (or kinges) must stay 7 yeares, as I
noted som daies past. There was three peeces ordinance shott affe at
his entry into the English howse, and 5 at his departure.
_January 29._--In the after nowne Soyemon Dono with 3 others came to
the English howse, to receve the comodeties which the king would buy
upon trust; but they tould me the Hollanders had sould the king pepper
at 5 _taies_ the _pico_, and therefor thought I would not aske more.
I answerd that, yf the Hollanders set pepper at that rate, they sell
other comodetis at a hier, which, it might be, cost them nothing but
the suting of a peece of ordinance, as silke at 240 _taies_ the _pico_,
etc. And, it might be, in pollecie set pepper loe, to the extent to
cros us and soe ether to make us to sell it better cheape then it cost
or else to make us fall into dislyke of the king, and by this meanes
get themselves favour and us disgrace. But the truth was, I set it at
no hier a rate then I sould to others for ready money, and at such a
price as I wold promis them to deliver no more at that rate. But for
broad cloth, which they set at 14 _taies_ per _tattamy_, and Syam wood
at 3½ _taies_ the _pico_, that I would sell hym at same rate, when
our shipps and junck arived. Yet, doe I what I could, they said they
durst not with their honor geve more then the Duch sould for. Soe we
concluded to send the pepper to Osekay to Mr. Eaton at kinges charg,
and he to sell it, and then to deliver the procead in money to the
king. And so that matter was ended. But we delivered comodety to them
for acco. of king as followeth, viz.:--
Baftas, white, 196 pec. of 11 Rs. _corg._ }
Eidem, lower, 101 pec. of 20 Rs. _corg._ }
Eidem, lower lodg. 201 pec. of 11 Rs. _corg._ } at 1 _tay_ pec.

_January 30._--The master, Jno. Hunt, envited us abord the _Hozeander_
to dyner. Mr. Wickham and my selfe retorned sowne after ashore
upon occation of busynes, and had 5 pec. ordinance shot ofe at our
departure, and the other 3 peeces when they came ashore.
And George Durois came to Firando and brought 2 jarrs of conserves,
and he gave me in present as followeth: a box of marmalad, a box of
cracknells, a box suger bred, a box of chistnuts, a bottell of Spanish
wine.
The Duch junck went out of rode Firando to Cochi, and there came to
anker by the great ship _Ankewsen_.
_January 31._--I receved 600 _taies_, I say six hundred _taies_, plat
bars of Mr. Ric. Wickham, which he brought from Mr. Eaton, receved in
parte of payment for lead sould at Osekay at 74 _mas_ per _pico_.
And in the after nowne Capt. Speck came to the English howse, and tould
me that Gonrok Dono had sent hym a letter from Langasaque, advising
hym as a frend (as he said) that he should geve the Hollanders warnyng
befor their shipping went out, as the lyke to the English, that they
should take heed they did not meddell with the greate ship of Amacon,
for that the Emperour had much adventure in her. Yet I say I wish we
might take her and then make the reconying after.
_Febrary 2._--I gave a present to a merchant of Miaco, whoe gave me a
fayre banqueting box before, viz.: 2 pec. byrams, white; 2 pec. byrams,
nill, of 15 R. _corg._--these are of the Companis goodes--2 pec. chader
Lullawy of my owne. He took it in good parte, and offerd to doe our
nation any service he could above at Miaco. Mr. Wickham gave me a
_keremon_ of them Sada Dono gave hym at Edo.
_Febrary 3._--The night past, about 11 a clock, there was a house sett
on fire by necklegence of the people which made it cleane against the
great feast of ther new yeare, which is within this 3 dayis. Soe ther
was 7 howses burned downe; and had it not byn for the English and Duch,
most parte of the towne had byn burned. For each one stood gazing one
and did nothing, and divers brought their goods into our English howse
for savegard.
Ther was a present geven to Torasemon Dono, a principall man in this
place, which never had any thing geven unto hym since our arivall in
Japon, which our frends tould us of. Soe he had geven
3 pec. byrams, white.
3 pec. byrams, nill, of 15 Rs. _corg._
3 pec. red zelas, of 12 Rs. _corg._
3 pec. boralles, of 5 Rs. _corg._
42 _cattis_ pepper.
And the China Capt., Andrea Dittis, went with me to viset hym, and
carid hym a great jar of biskit. And I gave a _kerimon_ to Matingas
father, which Mr. Eaton gave unto me.
Paid 6 _mas_ small plate to the fownder for 2 pans for Matinga.
And the kinge sent to have a gathering throughout Firando towardes the
releeving the pore people whose howses were burnt; towardes which we
gave a _tay_ in plate.
And paid the carpenter for mending Matingas howse

And I delivered 25 _tais_ plate bars more unto the fownders, upon acco.
of bras shivers which are waid out this day, being 6 _picos_ and 42
_cattis_.
Mr. Nealson, being drunck (as very often he is the lyke, to my greefe),
fell a brawling with the chirurgion, Morris Jones, and cut his head
with his dagger.
Soyemon Dono came late and brought the kinges bill for three thousand
_taies_ plate of bars, to be paid within this yeare for merchandiz
sould hym. And I delivered hym in the King of Firando's bill for 1000
_tais_, lent at Edo 2 yeares past.
I gave 2 falling bandes with lace to Mr. Wickham, cost me 2 _tais_.
_Febrary 4._--Mr. Wickham fell into his ould humours of comparisons,
misusing me. I think it is because he would goe for Bantam in the
_Hozeander_, which I am well contented of. He presumeth the more,
because Capt. Jourden wrot hym a letter he would geve hym preferment.
_Febrary 5._--I mad acco. this day with Oyen Dono and Shoske Dono for
ould debt of the kinge, which they say is 950 _ta._ 1 _m._ 0 _co._; but

The fownders brought present, 2 iron pans with wyne and fysh.
And Mr. Nealson receaved 76 _ta._ 5 _m._ 0 _co._ of Keemon Dono, for

And we had a generall counsell this day, wherin it was noted downe that
Capt. Raphe Coppendall was ordayned by generall consent to goe up to
the Emperour with a present. Also that Mr. Richard Wickham should have
an alowance of 150 _taies_ per anno., to fynd hym aparell and other
necessaries from our first arivall in Japon untill the last of August,
1615, we ariveing the 12th June, 1613. And that Mr. Jno. Osterwick
should stay to keepe the bookes, and be alowed 20_l._ per ano. to fynd
hym aparell and other necessaries, to begyn in Aprill last at his
coming from Bantam. And that Jno. Coker, an Englishman, should stay for
cooke in the English house, which is donne by his owne consent. And
Mr. Wickham to goe up to lye at Miaco or Osekay, till other occation
busynes be to employ hym in. And Mr. Eaton to com to Firando and goe to
Tushma, to cleare in that place.
Soyemon Donos bark was set on fyre per neclegence of his servantes,
beeing drunk and feasting abord according to Japon fation, this day,
but by good helpe was sowne quenched.
Capt. Speck came to the English howse and offred to make a consort to
have their small shipp and ours to stay to take the Amacon shipp and
the great shipp to goe for Bantam; but it was not thought fyt soe to
loose our monson.
_Febrary 9._--I wrot a letter to Jorge Durois to send stockinges and
candells, and sent it per bark sent per China Capt. to buy gunpolder
and pitch or rosen for _Hozeander_. We laded all the bras shivers and
shot abord the _Hozeander_ this day.
The bedell of the ward had 1 sack rise.
_Febrary 10._--We laded 14 _picos_ copper and 3 _picos_ iron abord the
_Hozeander_ this day.

_Febrary 12._--Torasemon Dono came hym selfe to the English house, and
brought a present of a _barso_ wyne and 2 faisant cocks.
_Febrary 14._--The king departed this day to goe to the Emperour, and
had 13 peces ordinance shot out of the _Hozeander_ and 5 out of the
Duch barke, with 8 or 10 chambers out of Duch house. I went out with
a banket of sweetmeate, 2 barilles wyne, a jarr of biskit, and 30 wax
candelles; which he took in very good part, and after sent me word by a
servant that it had sufficed to have sent any one in the howse, and not
to have com my selfe.
Mr. Hunt, the master of the _Hozeander_, fell into termes with Capt.
Coppendall about Rowland Tomas, the purcer, telling hym he did hym not
right about the abuse was formerly offred, and that the said Tomas
should find it when they were at sea. These were bad wordes, and were
because the said master might not keepe the kayes and domenere over the
purcer in matters of hold. But it is thought that the wax was gon out
of hold per lyke meanes.
_Febrary 15._--Mr. Nealson paid Jno. Cokora the cooke ten _tais_ and a
halfe in great plate, upon acco. of his wagis, to cleare with them he
is indebted unto.
And Capt. Speck sent me word he would let as have 2 _picos_ poulder,
