Williams, and a party of native police under his command, made descents on the savages encamped there. By precipitate flight all the blacks managed to save themselves and escape to the inaccessible parts of the island, beyond reach of the officers and their men. The remains of the unfortunate men were how ever found and decently interred, and the blacks' camp was spoiled, and their canoes destroyed or taken away. In the camp the hat which Mr. Irving had worn was found, and fragments of some other things which had belonged to the murdered men, but nothing of any value of their effects could be discovered.	[1]
