   Bon Voyage! Thought this archive from the history of the Manakin Huguenots voyage – late 1600’s. I hope the Warrens accept in humor as we look forward to hearing more about your adventures!
   “Their passage money was advanced, but it took seven years to work off the debt, after their arrival. All this their grateful king, with the help of his people, gave them and more besides, without stint.
   This generosity extended to instructions to captains of the four vessels involved
   about their diet, a touching account:
   It is the intent and meaning of the said parties that they shall have
   allowances as followeth: To every passenger above the age of six years,
   seven pounds of bread each week, and to a mess, eight passengers to a
   mess, and to have two pieces of pork, at two pounds each piece, five days a
   week, with peas. And two days in the week to have two pound pieces of
   beef with peas, or one four pound piece of beef with a pudding, and with
   peas. And any time, if it should happen that they are not willing the kettle
   should be boiled, or by bad weather cannot, in such case every passenger
   shall have one pound of cheese every such day. And such children as are
   under six years of age are to have such allowances of flour, oatmeal, fruit,
   sugar, and butter as their overseers shall judge convenient for them.”
   Sailing mercies,
   Rags+
