Block Island

Since I’ve written last, I have reached and anchored in The Narrows, a harbor point along the Hudson River. From this port, I explored the lower Hudson in a small boat. I made contact with more Indians along the way. My crew and I remained in this bay for two weeks until heading north up the coast. After I was sailing for a bit, I reached Block Island. A native Indian gave me assistance and guided me and my men towards the Narragansett Bay. During my exploration of this bay, I made a landing. I then headed up the coast, where I found a spot to trade with the Abenaki Indians. I do hope that good things are to come from all of my exploration.
