but found him very surly; upon which he took out a little
bottle, and dropping a few drops upon a bit of paper, held it unseen to
the dog, and then told Mr. Day the dog would follow him to England. Away
then he went, and the dog after him. Mr. Day and his servants all
followed, calling Roger, Roger, which was the name of the dog; but Roger
turning a deaf ear to all they could say, not thinking proper to turn
about once. Mr. Carew having diverted himself sufficiently, by leading
Mr. Day and his servants above half-a-mile, turned back again, with the
dog still following him. Having abode here some days, he took his leave,
receiving a handsome present from Mr. Day; he then returned back to Lord
Annesly, and thence to Kinsale, where he took the first opportunity of a
vessel, and landed at Padstow, in Cornwall, after a short and pleasant
passage.

From this place he went to Camelford; thence to Great Torrington, where
he met with his wife, and then proceeded to Biddeford: and on the next
day, being Sunday, he strolled down to one Holmes, who kept a
public-house between Biddeford and Appledore, where he passed great part
of the day drinking pretty freely; and money being at a low ebb with him,
he desired landlord Holmes to lend him a good suit of clothes, which he
accordingly did. Being thus gallantly equipped, he went and planted
himself at the church-door in Biddeford, and pretending to be the
supercargo of a vessel which had been a few days before cast away near
the Lizard, he got a very handsome contribution. From thence he
travelled to Barnstaple, where he had great success, none suspecting him
in his dress, as it was certainly known such a ship had been really cast
away near the Lizard a few days before. Returning back, he called upon
Squire Ackland, at Tremington, where he got half-a-crown of the lady upon
the same story; then, steering to Appledore, he met with landlord Holmes,
who had been in no little fear about his clothes; however, he would not
disrobe till he got to Appledore, where also he added to his store, and
then returning to Holmes, he restored him his clothes, and gave him some
small part of the profit of the excursion.

It was about this time Mr. Carew became acquainted with the Hon. Sir
William Wyndham in the following manner.--Being at Watchet, in
Somersetshire, near the seat of this gentleman, he was resolved to pay
him a visit; putting on, therefore, a jacket and a pair of trowsers, he
made t
