     summary: Here it was , that a Squadron of the Dutch on two several occasions , during that War , lay in wait for our New-found-land-Fleet , who had no recourse for safety but to Tanger , where they were protected and secur'd , till the danger was over : the greatest part whereof had otherwise demonstrably fallen into the Enemy's hands . For if in time of War we can force them from this so beloved Station , and attack them or their Prizes bound in or out ; and in time of Peace ( which we cannot refuse them ) they can be admitted to make use of Tanger , and the Port , as their occasions require ; they may perform their Voyages in half the time , and with half the trouble of returning home , to refit and Victual .
