next in command to Mr Lange carried it much farther  telling us that we might stay ashore till night if we pleasd but none of the natives would any more be allowd to trade with us  after which he began to drive away those who had brought hens  syrup &c. to remedy this an old sword which lay in the Boat was given to the Prime minister as I have calld him  Mannudjame  who in an instant restord order & severely chid the officer of the guard & old Portugese Indian  for haveing gone beyond their orders  trade now was a brisk as ever  fowls & syrup were bought cheap & in vast plenty, but now we will see what treatment Dr Solander met with in the Town

In the morn when he arriv'd there it was a long time before he could find the Radja  at last however he did & receivd many civilities from him  Mr Lange was however not to be found so no conversation could pass for want of an interpreter  after some time a number of men came & taking their arms rangd themselves in the yard  the Radja then appeard cross but shewd nothing but civility to the Dr.
