Several holes were cut through directly above, through which the hose of the force pump was brought to bear with great effect. After 8 hours labor, by the most active exertions, the fire was extinguished. During the fire, was compelled to keep the ship before the wind in consequence of which, fell to leeward off Cape St. Roque, and lost 4 days in beating around.

- June 1: Ship Aldebaran, 158 days from Boston. 380 tons. This is an interesting name for a ship. Aldebaran is the brightest, and therefore the Alpha, star of the constellation Taurus. The Greeks named it "Torch," and it was one of the four Royal Stars of the Persians. The ancient name, from Arabic, means "the Follower," as the star seems to follow the Pleiades, or Seven Sisters star cluster, across the sky. Aldebaran, 60 light years away, is positioned in front of the sprawling Hyades star cluster (in mythology, half-sisters to the Pleiades) that make the face of Taurus the Bull, but is not a part of it, the cluster over twice as far away. In most renderings of the constellation (such as this from Uranographia by Johannes Hevelius, 1690), Aldebaran makes the celestial Bull's eye, and in this map Aldebaran is the star near the left eye of the bull. It is a giant star in an advanced state of evolution, some 350 times more luminous than the Sun. If placed at the position of the Sun, Aldebaran would extend halfway to the planet Mercury and would appear 20 degrees across in our sky, making life on Earth quite impossible.
