Started again to the first Barracoon which I will attempt to describe, as I will do it for all with very little attention - They are like prisons in every respect. They have rooms up stairs as well as down, the walls are from two to three feet thick, the outside stone, there being strong crossed iron gratings at the windows; the thick doors are strengthened by heavy iron frappings and double bolts, also guarded by from five to ten ruffians dressed in rough European dress .. It would be difficult to say to what nation they belonged, but they looked like Portuguese or Manilamen, some of them having also large fierce dogs apparently the Mastiff breed - They were heavily armed with bludgeons and in some cases muskets. Attached to the Barracoons are yards with walls ten feet high..
