However, they did anchor, After this I asked Mr. Randall to request the captain of the troops to put some "men on guard, as we could have easily been attacked, But no notice was taken of his request. Before we anchored 1 told Mr. Randall 16 tell the pilot that if he kept fooling round and he attempted to do anything he would be first man I should go for. 1 may have and I would shout him. For what I know the men on board may have been rebels. After we. had anchored complained to Mr. Woods about the compradore. Mr. Woods spoke to him, but the compradore took no notice. Later on 1 and Mr. Randall were sitting down and Mr. Wouls was sitting on the mail. Mr. Woods happened to say his seat was rather uncomfortable, and 1 said, "Well, why don't you get the chair you have been sleeping in?" I then told the boatswain to fetch the chair. He went away and on his return he said the compradore had it and that he said it belonged to him. I sent him back telling him to ask the compradore to come to me. He went and then he came back with a message that if I wanted to see the compradore 1 must go and see him. I was annoyed at this; and Mr. Woods Fairie, R.N....... Said, "Don't get excited; I'll go and talk to.F.A. Hastings 6 T. S. Smith...... 20 the utan." He then went forward on to the Wilson, R.N.... 9 forecastfe head, and on hearing voices I said

When I asked what all the trouble was about the con- pradore, who was on the other side of the chair, saki, "This chair belong mine." I was in my pyjamas but I had no revolver with me. ¥ uk nowhere to carry it except I had put it in the smal pocket. When I got on to the forecastle hand some soldiers er sailors went off the forecastle head down below. When the com- pradore told me that the chair belonged to him | I swore and said, If this chair belongs to you then captain Sherwan ka linn" always slept on the deck in this chair, and no one hid disputed my taking possession of it. The compradore repeated that the chair belonged to him. I then and round to Woods and told him, adding, “Now he, is going in for a paltry chair and the next thing he will steal the ship.", I was still in the rame position and 1 said to Woods, "Don't talk to the brute, get hold of the end of the chair and carry it away." Lowe To hurry him up I shock the chair. Then the compradore said, "1 no thief; I no liar! and began pulling his sleeves back. As soon as he did this thought there was going to be trouble and 1 thgatened that if he made another move I would shoot him, though I had no revolver with me. I had my pipe in my hand and I lifted it up. As soon' as I raid that Woods made a rush i should say towards me.
