He then returned to the area around Cape Verde, where he captured a flotilla of twenty small ships and a Dutch war sloop off Santiago.
[6] At Réunion he was visited by pirates Levasseur, Taylor, and Seagar who had captured the Portuguese Viceroy of Goa aboard the fantastically wealthy Nossa Senhora do Cabo.

[4] At first thought to be William Kidd's Adventure Galley, the Fiery Dragon was claimed to have been found by Barry Clifford off the coast of Sainte-Marie, Madagascar, where it was purposely sunk in 1721.
[11] A similar design was printed in Basil Lubbock's “Blackwall Frigates” in 1922[12] and F. Bradlee's "Piracy in the West Indies and its suppression” in 1923, again not attributed to Condent.
