THE THREE KINGS OF BERMUDA, AND THEIR TREASURE OF AMBERGRIS.
At the time that Sir George Somers was pre- paring to launch his cedar-built bark, and sail for Virginia, there were three "culprits among his men who had been guilty of capital offences.
One of them was shot; the others, named Chris- topher Carter and Edward Waters, escaped.
Waters, indeed, made a very narrow escape, for he had actually been tied to a tree to be exe- cuted, but cut the rope with a knife, which he had concealed about ...his person, and fled to the woods, where he was joined by Carter. These 'wo worthies kept themselves concealed in the secret parts of the island, until the departure of the two vessels. When Sir George Somers revisited the island, in quest of supplies for the 120 THE BERitUD IS.
Virginia colony, these culprits hovered about the landing-place, and succeeded in persuading an- other seaman, named Edward Chard, to join them, -giving him the most seductive picture o( the ease and abundance in which they rev- elled.
