{{Tr|W. H. G. Kingston}} and edited by I. O. Evans. This translation begins: "On 18th October, 1825, The Asia, a high-built Spanish ship, and the Constanzia, a brig of eight guns, cast anchor off the isle of Guajan, one of the Mariannas. The crews of these vessels, badly fed, ill-paid, and harrassed with fatigue during their six months voyage for Spain, had been secretly plotting a mutiny."
