We are still under reef top sails though they make A little sail this morning we all felt some unwell. It is supposed we shall reach the Bank of Newfoundland this evening. At 6 ocl[ock] the capt had the lead cast for Soundings. We have made 1,000 miles on our Course during the last 4 days nearly as much as we made the first 17 days. I hope the wind may continue favorable.
