Going to visit the posts of our fort, to see whether every man did his duty, one of the soldiers, quitting his post, told me that the Blacks, well knowing he had but one hat in the world, had maliciously shot away the crown, which he would revenge, if I would give him a few granadoes " [hand grenades]. " I had no sooner ordered him two, than he called out to the Blacks from the breastwork in their own language, telling them he would present them with something to eat : and giving fire to the gr...anadoes, immediately threw them down among the crowd, who observing them to burn, throng'd about them, and were at first very agreeably diverted : but when they burst, they so galled them that they had no great stomach to such another meal." General Swerts' ideas with regard to what is comic do not 138 OUR DUTCH RIVALS commend themselves to the ordinary individual.
