68 A New and Varticular Relation of the
their Niece, for which the Uncle and the Aunt thought
themfelves oblig'd to him during their Voyage. But at
length feeing fuch a fwarmof Sweethearts about her, he
thought it but chanty to undeceive fo many poor Gulls, and
without further ceremony to go to her Aunt, and to demand
her Niece for his Wife. The She General who look'd up
on herfelf to be a kind of a Queen at Batavia, look'd upon
it as a high offence and indignity for a Tarpaulin Captain
of a Ship to dare to make her luch a Propofal 3 having alrea
dy refus'd fuch Matches, perfons that might come to be
Privy Gounfellors of all the Indies. Neverthelefs within a
day or two after the Captain renewed his Charge, but then
in a Ma jeftic Fury fhe utterly forbid him the Fort. He ta
king little notice of her rage^ goes to the General, and after
fome Dilcourfe makes the lame Propoial, and receives the
fame Anfwer. But then the Captain gave the Husband
fuch a Bone to pick, that he would not give the Wife ,• Sir,
faid he, twice already have I demanded your Niece in Mar
riage, this is now the third time that I make the fame de
mand ; if you refule me, you fliall ask me four times; before
I accept of her : and fo faying briskly left him. The Gene
ral reflecting upon the Captain's words, went tq his Wife
and told her the Story, who guefling at the effects of a long
Voyage Familiarity, call'd Madam Niece into examination:
She not being us'd to Diffimulation confels'd the whole mat
ter, and without any more to do was married to the Cap
tain, to the great wonder of the whole City, till the birth
of a Boy at the end of fix moneths unfolded the Rid die. But
this lying in was her ruin 5 for about five or fix days after,
the Mother and the Nurfe being ill, the chief Chirurgeon
of the Fort order'd them to take a little Cremor Tartar 5 and
to that purpole lent a young man to the Mafter Chirurgeon
of the Town, to fend him two quantities of tremor Tartar
in two Papers. He being drinking with his Friends, lends a
young Barber newly come from Holland, to put up the two
quantities according to direction. But the Barber mtffook
the Glafs, and put up Sublimate inftead of Cremor Tartar. So
the two Women taking their Dofes, diflolved in two Silver
Cups of fair Water died in 24 hours after.
