Torres, coming from Espirito Santo, reached the south end of New Guinea
about September 9, 1606, and the Philippines about May 12, 1607, having
passed through Torres Strait about December 9, 1606. His report to the
King of Spain is vague--no doubt intentionally so--as to longitudes and
dates. From New Guinea he carried off twenty slaves.
He did not claim the discovery of a strait and in making for this passage
he was apparently acting on information already in his possession.
