[804] Salmon Jr. schreef 5 Juli 1619 aan Heley (Purchas, Pilgrimes. III p. 735): „I doubt not but we shall call the Dutch to account of how many tunnes of Oyle they haue made, as they did call vs the last Voyage to account: my loue is such vnto them, that I protest I could wish with all my heart that we might goe and see them, and to spend my best bloud in the righting of our former wrongs.”

[810] Brieven v. Catcher, Salmon, Fanne en Goodlard, bij: Purchas, Pilgrimes. III p. 735-37.—De Engelschen meenden, dat God, vertoornd over het storten van bloed in 1618, de zeeën om Spitsbergen door de walvisschen had doen verlaten. „I doe verily perswade my selfe,” schrijft Salmon 6 juli 1621, „that God is much displeased for the blood which was lost in this place, and I feare a perpetuall curse still to remaine yet.” „Our harbour,” dus verhaalde ook Catcher 29 Juni 1623, „manie say still, is vnpossible to make a Voyage by reason that the Flemmings shed bloud there, which I pray God to take that plague from vs.”
