Summary
[edit]DescriptionMosquetal fort 23 May 1585.jpg |
English: "THE xjth of Maie the Generall in the Tyger arriued at St Iohns Iland where he fortified in this manner, toke in fresh water, and buylt a Pynnes, And then departed from thence the xxiijth of the same moneth. 1585." Watercolor by John White.
The temporary fort was constructed by General Ralph Lane to protect a base camp for Sir Richard Grenville's crew as they awaited the rest of his fleet, which had become separated off the coast of Portugal. The location of Mosquetal (Mosquito Bay) is uncertain; historians have identified it as both Tullaboa Bay and Guayanilla Bay. |
