Thursday, Jan. 4/Jan. 14
                              At anchor in Plymouth harbor.  Captain
                              Standish, with four or five men, went to
                              look for savages, and though they found
                              some of their old houses “wigwams” could
                              not meet with any of them.

Friday, Jan. 5/Jan. 15
                              At anchor in Plymouth harbor.  Working-
                              party went aland early.  One of the sailors
                              found a live herring upon the shore, which
                              the Master had to his supper.  As yet have
                              caught but one cod.

Saturday, Jan. 6/Jan. 16
                              At anchor in harbor.  In judgment of
                              Masters Brewster, Bradford, and others,
                              Master Martin, the colonists’ treasurer,
                              was so hopelessly ill that Governor Carver,
                              who had taken up his quarters on land, was
                              sent for to come aboard to speak with him
                              about his accounts.  Fetched wood and water.

Sunday, Jan. 7/Jan. 17

                              Governor Carver came aboard to talk with
                              Master Martin, who was sinking fast.

Monday, Jan. 8/Jan. 18
                              At anchor in Plymouth harbor.  A very fan
                              fair day.  The working-party went aland
                              early.  The Master sent, the shallop for
                              fish.  They had a great tempest at sea and
                              were in some danger.  They returned to the
                              ship at night, with three great seals they
                              had shot, and an excellent great cod. 
                              Master Martin died this day.  He had been a
                              “governour” of the passengers on the ship,
                              and an “assistant,” and was an Adventurer. 
                              One of the Master-mates took a musket, and
                              went with young Francis Billington to find
                              the great inland sea the latter had seen
                              from the top of a tree, and found a great
                              water, in two great lakes [Billington Sea,]
                              also Indian houses.
