Some, or indeed several of this latter denomination, are mere spots without inhabitants.  But it must be left to future navigators to introduce into the geography of this part of the South Pacific Ocean the exact situation and size of near a hundred more islands in this neighbourhood, which we had not an opportunity to explore, and whose existence we only learnt from the testimony of our friends as above-mentioned.  On their authority the following list of them was made, and it may serve as a ground-work for farther investigation.

Names of the Friendly Islands, and others, in that Neighbourhood, mentioned by the Inhabitants of Anamooka, Hepaee, and Tongataboo.[173]

[Footnote 173:  Those islands which the natives represented as large ones, are distinguished in Italics.]

I have not the least doubt that Prince William’s Islands, discovered and so named by Tasman, are included in the foregoing list.  For while we lay at Hapaee, one of the natives told me, that three or four days sail from thence to the N.W., there was a cluster of small islands, consisting of upwards of forty.  This situation corresponds very well with that assigned in the accounts we have of Tasman’s voyage, to his Prince William’s Islands.[174]
