ten o'clock
The Captain found great difficulty in sighting the entrance to Digby Bay , where he arrived safe and sound at eleven o'clock the following morning . The next day he proceeded to Annapolis Royal arriving there at noon , where he purchased a large sloop , and without delay got his boat on board and next day at the turn of tide sailed for Digby . Here he took on board some water , and after waiting several hours for a fair wind sailed for the mouth of the St. John . At ten o'clock , a.m. , June 30th , he set sail to recross the Bay of Fundy and rejoin his wife and family at Fort Frederick . He arrived off the harbour the following morning quite early , but was unable to anchor off Fort Frederick , till the evening on account of fog . On arriving at the Fort he was greatly relieved of apprehensions that would obtrude themselves upon him during his lonely trip by finding his wife and children all well . The following day he commenced to get his merchandize on board the sloop .
