Johnson was led into All's tent and examined; the bundle was opened, and Mr.Park was sent for, to explain the use of the various contents.

To Mr.Park's great satisfaction, however, Johnson had committed his papers to the charge of one of Daman's wives.

The bundle was again tied up, and put into a large cowskin bag.

In the evening Ali sent to Mr.Park for the rest of his effects, to secure them, according to the report of the messengers, _as there were many thieves in the neighbourhood_.

Every thing was accordingly carried away, nor was he suffered to retain a single shirt.
