Track of the Bounty's Launch from Tofoa to Timor by Lt. William Bligh, 1789.
CHAPTER 18.
At Coupang.
JUNE 1789.
TIMOR.
From the great humanity and attention of the governor and the gentlemen at Coupang we received every kind of assistance and were not long without evident signs of returning health. Shortly after our arrival I presented to the governor a formal account of the loss of the Bounty; and a requisition in His Majesty's name that instructions might be sent to all the Dutch settlements to stop the ship if she made her appearance. With this a complete descriptive list of the mutineers was given.
