QT5.) A Spanish expedition was 6,-
tel ou, from San Bias under command Of
Heceta, consisting Of the corvette Sdnf'a-
20 and the schooner Sonora, the latter
under command of Bod.ga y Quadra.
Early in July they made the land in 4so27
north. Thence they coastrd southward
inshore. seeking the entrance Of the Strait
Of Fuca Qaid down on Bellin's chart as
between 47o and 4so). Disappointed,
they anchored. (47o2oC. sent boat ashore
with seven men, all Of whom were mur-
dered by the natives. Bodrga called the
spot Punta de Martires, the Point GreE-
vile. Of modern geography. The crew Of
the Sonora were. then attacked with scur-
w. and other discouragements followed
hence the name Of Isla de DOLORES by
Bodega. This is the Destruction Island
of modern charts, name ascribed to it by
Capt. Berkely. of the Austrian East In
diaman Imperial Eagle, in 1887, in memo.
ry of the sad fate Of several of his crew,
who went ashore abreast of it, and were
murdered by the natives. The Santiago
and Sonora having parted company, Qua
dra sailed northward. Hcceta followed
down the coast, and on the 18th August
arrived abreast of nm opening (46ol7O
from which rushed so strong current that
he was unabl. to effect an entrance. To
this opening he gave the name of Enseaa.
da de Asuncion. The charts published in
Mexico, in honor Of Heceta, designated
this entrance EnseAada de Hccrta, mark
ing it as the mouth Of the Rio de San
Rogue.
Q776.) On the 22d July. the illustri.
Gus but illfated Capt. James Cook made
Point Martinez, Of the Spanish charts, to
which h. gave the name Of Cape Flattery.
Not finding the Strait Of Fuca bstween
the 47th and 48th parallels, he denied its
existence. and continued his voyage to the
northwest without attempting any further
examination.
Q7s7) Capt. Berkely, an English
navigator sailing in the Austrian East In.
dia Compauy's service, in the Imperial
Eagle. deserted the entrance and satisfied
himself Of the existence Of tho Strait, in
bis long. g.boas. but made no further attempt
At an entrance. At Macao. tho following
