This writing will be brought into your presence, by the chief officer commanding my vessel ; a man of truth and skill, in whose words and knowledge I have great confidence. He will speak of the great land from whence I come ; of the wealth and power of America, and of the friendly dispositions of the American people towards his Highness of Jambee. He will inform my lord Sultan of my wish to visit the Kraton at Jambee, that I may present some gifts, and sentiments of friendship to his Highness. ...Therefore my lord Sultan will be pleased to give orders to his officers, that the bearer of this may be allowed to dwell for a time with peace and com fort in the territory of Jambee; and afterwards, when he shall have accomplished his desire, to be permitted to go his way with out molestation. " Whilst engaged in my cabin with Kiagoos Lanang, and be fore the dictation of the letter was completed, the Balinese captain came on board to remind me of an engagement to attend a great Chinese wedding feast, that afternoon, which I had forgotten ; for I was invited daily to many feasts by the natives of rank.
