“They have in their possession (unknown to you) a Compass, in order to go thus secretly with the little skiff to the High land.In composing this devious epistle, Cornelisz displayed his absolute conviction that his actions in the Abrolhos were not only justified, but sanctioned by law.
Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. It was plain that the Defenders were well prepared to meet an attack, and any assault would only result in the death of Cornelisz himself. Two or three days after Daniel Cornelissen’s disappearance, during the last week of July, Zevanck and Van Huyssen gathered 20 men and attempted to subdue Wiebbe by force. Gijsbert had not been allowed to mourn his murdered family.

Batavia's Graveyard: The True Story of the Mad Heretic Who Led History's Bloodiest Mutiny [Dash, Mike] on Amazon.com. The corporal was certainly less of a potential threat than David Zevanck and Coenraat van Huyssen, who were both self-confident, if junior, members of the officer class. In a narrative reminiscent of Lord of the Flies, Dash describes the creeping sadism that sprang from Holland's religious conflicts, which were channeled through the Jim Jones-like charisma of Corneliszoon. Now that a good deal of the killing had been done, the mutineers’ existence on the island was increasingly routine, and they began to look for fresh diversions; attracting the attention of any of Cornelisz’s henchmen was unwise, and a few mutineers, perhaps unstable to begin with, became deranged.The most extreme case was that of Jan Pelgrom, the cabin boy, whose “gruesome life” is vividly sketched in the ship’s journals. Once again, however, the boy found himself frustrated by his puny body:“Jeronimus said to him, ‘Jan, here is my sword, which you have to try on the Net-Maker to see if it is sharp enough to cut off his head.’ Whereupon he was very glad. Snorkel or dive the Long Island Dive Trail, erected by the Fisheries Department.
One of these beliefs, as written in a medieval manuscript, was that “nothing is sin except what is thought of as sin.” Another explained that “one can be so united with God that whatever one may do one cannot sin.”What the other mutineers made of Cornelisz’s ideas it is difficult to say. They determined who would live or die, but they themselves did not kill, leaving Zevanck and Van Huyssen to carry out their orders. Although these killings took place almost 400 years ago on deserted islands in a then barely explored corner of the Indian Ocean, the scale of these crimes makes Helter Skelter look like the JV team! Over the next few days, at least five different groups made the difficult passage across more than four miles of open water, sitting on little homemade rafts or swimming behind planks of wood.
A few of the Defenders had family on Batavia’s Graveyard, but Wiebbe Hayes showed no inclination to counterattack Cornelisz’s men, and in retrospect his caution seems perfectly justified; secure though they were in their well-prepared positions, Hayes’s troops would have been badly exposed to Jeronimus’s swords and pikes in more open fighting. And life was dangerous, full of deadly diseases, crazy people, social prejudice, and superstition.
But even the Frenchmen did not believe in the mutineers’ sincerity, and rather than receiving Cornelissen as an ambassador, they seized him and took him captive. Now Jeronimus assembled his entire company—37 men and all their women—on a small islet opposite the Defenders’ main position and about 400 yards away across the mudflats. But knowing Jeronimus, it seems likely that he was also fatally overconfident. The balance of Hayes’s men were gunners, sailors, and civilians of limited military experience.
The day after his wife and children had been killed, the mutineers had found him “weeping very much,” and ordered him to stop. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. The old Company ranks still counted for something on the island—assistants and cadets seem to have been treated more respectfully than ordinary soldiers and sailors—but even among the rank and file, some mutineers were more equal than others. He was not one of Jeronimus’s band (that is, he did not sign the oath of 16 July); but he took part in some of its operations, and as he was still the most senior member of the By now they were well schooled in the art of murder.

Beacon Island, later named Batavia's Graveyard for the atrocity that would occur, was the site of Australia's first and biggest massacre.
But many of the mutineers were less punctilious.
