It is written by the last post from Rochelle, to a merchant in this city, that there was a French ship arrived, the Master and Company of which reports that about two or three hundred leagues northwest from Cape Finis Terre, they fell in with an Island, where they went on shore and found about 2000 English people without clothes, only some small coverings about their middle, and that they related them that at their first coming to this Island (which was in Queen Elizabeth's time) they were but five in number, men and women, being cast ashore by distress or otherwise, and had their remained ever since, without having any correspondence with any other people, or any ship coming to them.
