Captain Godfrey had been fortunate in bringing with him from England several small compasses and two larger ones , one of the latter he took with him . A gentle but fair breeze followed the little ship from land to land . 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 .
