Evidenced, in the remarkable deliverance of Robert Barrow, with divers persons, from the devouring waves of the sea; among which they suffered shipwrack: and also, from the cruel, devouring jaws of the inhuman canibals of Florida. Faithfully related by Jonathan Dickinson, one of the persons concerned therein.
