The state of these poor creatures has been rendered abundantly more miser- able, since the English have taken possession of their country, from the introduction of vices to which they were before strangers, particularly the use of spirituous liquors. 24^A. — We sent some biscuit to the native family on the north side of the bay, by the mate and my son Charles ; who saw tw^o other families of these people in the course of their excursion. Their debased condition is greater than can well be conce...ived, and such as to render every attempt to assist them fruitless : if money be handed to them, it is immediately exchanored for rum ; or if clothes, thev are forthwith sold or exchanged for whatever will procure strong drink : such is the curse entailed upon them since their acquaintance with the British ; who are doubtless chargeable, not only on this score, but for much of the demoralization and degradation of these harmless people.
