As Capt. Raine expects to be able to sail tomorrow, we think it best to take leave of the shore -- and repair again on board ship to prepare for prosecuting our Voyage Home. -- We accordingly got up early this morning -- and Embarked on board the Surry at 8 o'clock from the same Place we landed at. -- We had invited all our friends of Mr. Pennell's Family and a few others, to Breakfast with [us] this morning on -- board the Surry. -- They came on board accordingly between 9 and 10 o'clock, and Breakfasted with us: their names being the following vizt.
Mr. & Miss Pennell -- 2
