In the printed Voyage, the shoal is mistakenly said to lie SbW from the East end of Timor. The Manuscript Journal, and the track of the ship as marked in the charts to the 1st volume of Dampier's Voyages, agree in making the place of the shoal SbW from the West end of Timor; whence they had last taken their departure, and from which their reckoning was kept.

Père Labat relates a story of a ridiculous effort in mechanical ingenuity, in which M. de Gennes succeeded whilst he was Governor at Saint Christopher. 'He made an Automaton in the likeness of a soldier, which marched and performed sundry actions. It was jocosely said that M. de Gennes might have defended his government with troops of his own making. His automaton soldier eat victuals placed before it, which he digested, by means of a dissolvent,' —P. Labat, Vol. V. p. 349.
