Still missing. Drake erected on the shore a post, on which he placed a plate of brass. Here he engraved the Queens name, the date of his landing, the gift of the country by the people, and left her Majestys portrait and arms. The last were not designed by his artists, as some historians have carelessly supposed, but were on a silver piece, of sixpence, showing through a hole made of purpose in the plate.
