ABSTRACT
George Forster (Voyage, n, 241-2) gives a somewhat heightened account of * our situation this night* (Monday 25 July) as they were drifting towards Nguna, and remained 'in the most dreadful suspense till near ten o'clock' when at last ' we fortunately drifted clear of the point at a short distance*,
4 Pele, a small island 662 feet high, a quarter of a mile off the eastern end of Nguna.
