Scope and Contents

Coles explains that Eliza continues to be delayed by inclement weather. He worries that Catherine may have heard news of the wreck, and so "suppose that we had all either met with a watery grave or if not that, perhaps in a State of Starvation either in the Boats or on some distant Land."
