Vgl. Danvers, Portuguese in Asia, II, 1894, bl. 227: “On the 10th June, 1627, four Dutch ships appeared before that port with the view of attacking a fleet which had been prepared there for a journey to Japan.... The Dutch admiral’s ship was boarded and burnt, thirty-seven of the crew being killed and fifty taken prisoners. The guns, ammunition, treasury, and provisions were also secured. After the loss of this ship the other three vessels retired.”—Zie nog C. A. Montalto de Jesus, Historie Macao, 1902, bl. 77.
