Journal written by James Currie (1756-1805) during a voyage on the American sloop "Betsy" from Nixonton, North Carolina to St. Martin's in the Caribbean, September 19 to October 29, 1776. The monotony of the voyage was broken by an unidentified vessel that fired upon and chased "Betsy", and by an encounter with the Continental privateer, the "Independent". In 1777 Currie returned to Scotland where he studied medicine and later moved to Liverpool.
