Wednesday May 16Rain this morning but it got up fine by 10 o’clock. John Edwin has been breaking sea biscuits up small and making a cake of them with currants and sugar, it is like cold plum pudding, we should never have thought of eating such stuff at home but we are rather short of bread and it helps to fill up. We are going very fast this morning. Lat. 36.21S Long. 15.52W Distance for two days 420 miles, one of the stay sails was split this morning. Inacessible Island (Inaccessible Island is an extinct volcano, 14 km² (5.5 sq mi) in area, rising out of the South Atlantic Ocean) 170 miles off.
