Excerpt from Madagascar, or Robert Drury's Journal, During Fifteen Years' Captivity on That Island: And a Further Description of Madagascar by the Abbé Alexis Rochon Here I had the pleasure of seeing a comet* in the Constellation Crater. From its great southern latitude, I believe it was not visible in England, as it disappeared before it made any considerable pro gress to the northward. I transmitted a crude account of it to my good friend, Commissioner Meade, of the Customs, but by being on board, and wanting proper instruments, could not be very exact in the observation. However, I traced its path in the heavens with sufficient accuracy to determine its motion and inclination to the ecliptic. After we had taken in our wine and other necessaries for our voyage, we prepared to leave this island, and were under weigh May 8th. Our next rendezvous was St. Augustine's Bay, on the west side of the island of Madagascar, where we arrived, August 1lth, and having completed our water and refreshed our people, sailed from thence, September lst.
