Excerpt from Pitcairn: The Island, the People, and the Pastor; With a Short Account of the Mutiny of the Bounty
Nelson, the gardener, and his assistant being sent out to look for young plants, it was no small degree of pleasure to find them report, on their return, that according to appearances, the object of the voyage would probably be accomplished with ease; the plants were plentiful, and no apparent objection on the part of the natives to col lect as many as might be wanted.
Presents were now given to Otoo, the chief of Matavai, who had changed his name to Tinah. He was told, that on ao count of the kindness of his people to Captain Cook, and from a desire to serve him and his country, King George had sent out those valuable presents to him: And will you not, Tinah, said Bligh.
