Manuscript Captain`s Log kept by Captain Edward Windsor on various voyages between 1706 and 1708. The log is written on 71 leaves of a folio album, in a neat, legible hand in black ink, the leaves having been ruled and sectioned in red ink. Contemporary full sheep binding, rubbed and worn with some losses, the covers loose, the spine cracked, but the boards holding. * The log contains daily records of weather conditions, speed, etc., with daily comments and other observations. The first voyage is aboard H. M. S. Poole, to Lisbon and return, with Sir Cloudesley Shovell, from October 3rd to December 28th, 1706. The following year Windsor joined H. M. S. Expedition at Chatham on the 7th January, where the ship had undergone some repairs; " I took command of her at the moorings above the dock at Chatham yard, ...topmasts ... but noe sails ... carpenters and joyners work not completed ..." The Expedition sailed for Jamaica, arriving in June 1707. Windsor left the Expedition and on the 4th August was made Captain of the Portland. His first voyage in the Portland took him to Hispaniola and Cuba, after which returning to Jamaica the vessel spent most of the month of November "Rideing at Port Royall Keys," thence to Bastimentos Island and various other locations before joining, in May, 1708, a reconnaissance mission under the command of Commodore Wager. Wager, now in H. M. S. Expedition, together with the Portland, H. M. S. Kingston, captained by Simon Bridges, and the fire-ship Vulcan, took part in the battle of Cartegena. On July 23rd 1708, Captain`s Bridge and Windsor were court-martialled and expelled from the Navy for their failure in this mission; the last entry in the log records this; "I was dismissd from my command for want of judgement & having to great a regard to superiority."
