The Voyages of John Struys,- V oy . III.
hanoititz, whoTcTlmppy arrival the Deputy and all peaceably minded
perfons earneftly longed for : the City being now in a very weak
condition and low , fince the Levying of thofe that were fent out J? 01
with Simeum lyanoivit^ , and confequently the Mobile the bolder. But
on the 4 of lune , by a Gentleman who had made his Efcape , they
had notice of the Aftairs of Tzornojiir , that on the fame day that the
Kiees Elboof made his appearance the Town was taken in, and that the
Governour and Officers were all maffacred and their Bodies thrown
into the River : and further, what was more deplorable, thePrivat Wil
Soldatefque of Knees Elhoof had murthered aiF their Officers in the
Fleet , declared themfelves tor the Cofacks , and furrendred all the
Shipping into the Hands of Stenko Rad& the grand Belweathcr , or
Ringleader of the Rebells ; altho immediately before their coming at
Tsornojar they had unanimoufly fworn, to live and dy with their
Leaders. The Report of thefe things , altho the Governour indea-
vored to fmother as much as was poffible , gave the Rabble greater
Occafion to mutiny than they had before j yea , fo far they were
induced , that they publicly reproached the Superiority that they
durft not look out of their doors , or windows , much lefs walk the
ftreets to confult together of means to remedy the diftemper of affiurs,
to defend themfelves againfl; the Hoftility abroad , and to fupprefs
inteftinjarrsat home, 'for it was no rare thing now to fee the Rabble
affemble togethers in heaps, and before the Doors of the Magiftrates
to cry out with infamous and bitter Railings , A ^ tv , , the times

The Governour in the mean while loft no courage on his part, and
the Gentry and Officers ftillcontinued under hopes of Affiftance from
the Field Army, and new fuccour and Recruits from The
Deputy therefore caufed all the Ordnance to be vifited and laden by
the German Gunners , and gave orders to furniffi themfelves with
neceflary Ammunition. However we could very well remark , that
were the Officers never fo fedulous , they were never able both to
defend themfelves from fuch a Power without , and be fecure for
Mutiny within , ofwhich many Reafons were given to the
and he as often forewarned by divers prudent Perfons. The
F/ofirofski would willingly have had us in the Town-fervice, but oeing
