Mantalini said.
Wednesday, November 26, 1856. Moriyama Yenoske came to see me, as he said, with a mes- sage from the Governor. Three horses have been offered, but none suit the Japanese ; one is too old 1 Eiee-beer. By distillation, liquors of high alcoholic strength may he obtained.
92 MB. HAJiBIS'S JOVBNAL.
and clumsy, one too young and vicious, the tliird is too ill-looking for me.
The Governor is a good judge of a horse, and has promised to select one that will suit. He says he is responsib...le for my personal safety to both the American and Japanese governments, and if I should be killed by a vicious horse, he would have to perform the hara-kiri. I told Yenoske that I should be satisfied with any horse the Gov- ernor might select, etc. Commodore Possiet and Mr. Heusken took a walk southwest from Shi- moda, and were followed by a Gobangoshi.^ The Commodore in a decided and stern manner ordered him to go about his business and not to follow him, and the man left them. But soon afterwards he reappeared, and pertinaciously kept with them.
