The letters of captain Montagu, and of Robert Eden, Esq. of
this day, to the council of safety, were laid before the convention,
and on consideration thereof Resloved unanimously, That the said
captain Montagu, by detaining several servants belonging to the
inhabitants of this province, and by refusing to deliver up a soldier
who deserted from the service of this colony, hath violated the truce
and acted in manifest violation of his promise to preserve the same
sacred.

Ordered, That the commanding officer do not permit any bag-
gage or effects belonging to Robert Eden, Esq. or any other per-
son on board the Fowey, to be carried on board the said ship; and
to take care that all communication with the said ship immediate-
ly cease.
