William Bligh:
(St Tudy near Bodmin, Corwall, England, 9 September 1754 – London, 7 December 1817).
Best known for being the captain of the Bounty, the ship on which the infamous mutiny broke out in 1789.
On the night of the first of September, we observed for the first time the signs of the natives being in the neighborhood. Fires were seen on the low land near Cape Frederick Henry, and at daylight, we saw the natives with our glasses.
