Having made known hiscrime to them, Otoo begged he might be set at liberty. This I refused, telling him, that since I punished my people, when they committed the leastoffence against his, it was but just this man should be punished also; andas I knew he would not do it, I was resolved to do it myself. Accordingly, I ordered the man to be carried on shore to the tents, and having followedmyself, with Otoo, Towha, and others, I ordered the guard out, under arms, and the man to be tied up to a pos...t. Otoo, his sister, and some others, begged hard for him; Towha said not one word, but was very attentive toevery thing going forward. I expostulated with Otoo on the conduct of thisman, and of his people in general; telling him, that neither I, nor any ofmy people, took any thing from them, without first paying for it;enumerating the articles we gave in exchange for such and such things; andurging that it was wrong in them to steal from us, who were their friends. I moreover told him, that the punishing this man would be the means ofsaving the lives of others of his people, by deterring them from committingcrimes of this nature, in which some would certainly be shot dead, one timeor another.
