Years: 1713 - 1713
Rogers decides the way out of his financial difficulty is to lead another expedition, this time against pirates.
He leads in 1713 what is ostensibly an expedition to purchase slaves in Madagascar and take them to the Dutch East Indies, this time with the permission of the British East India Company.
Rogers' secondary purpose, however, is to gather details on the pirates of Madagascar, hoping to destroy or reform them, and colonize Madagascar on a future trip.
