Excerpt from Perils and Adventures on the Deep: A Series of Interesting Narratives of Naval Adventure and Suffering The New Horn, a Dutch vessel of 1100 tons, sailed from the Texel with a crew of 206 men, on the 28th December 1618. On the 30th they passed Portsmouth with a fair wind, and on new year's day parted from the English coast. The vessel was much damaged by a heavy gale, which obliged them to lower their topsails, to reduce all sail, and drive before the storm. They shipped three heavy seas, and a vast quantity of water got into the hold. The mainmast was carried away on the third day of this tempest; but the gale abating, they were enabled to secure the rigging.
