The beautiful cloister contains the statues of Andrea and Giovandrea, broken by the people in 1797. Close by is the Doria Palace, given by the Republic to Andrea when he refused the office of Doge. It is decorated with the privileged black and white marble, and bears the inscription, Senat. Cons. Andreae de Oria Patriae Liberatori Munus Publicium.
He quickly understood me, and taking it down, again fastened up its beak, and brought it along perched on his shoulder. The whole remaining population of the village came down to the water to see us embark. We took off our hats to Oria, who scarcely seemed to understand the compliment. Our raft was soon launched with their aid, and, greatly to our satisfaction, floated buoyantly.
Neither Duppo nor Oria could understand these remarks, but they did the signs which accompanied them; and they both answered that they hoped soon to obtain for her what she wished. We then took Duppo down to the canoe, and I tried to explain to him our intention of making a voyage in her.
Maono and Illora, after remaining some time with us, considerably, I hope, to their benefit, returned to their people with the intention of showing them the advantages of civilisation, and imparting a knowledge of the true God and his plan of salvation, which they themselves had obtained. We were thankful that they consented to leave Duppo and Oria with us.
I hope John will soon return. I am surprised you did not see him as you came down the igarape." I explained to her how easily we might have passed each other. "I dare say we shall see John in a few minutes. When he found night coming on, he would certainly turn back," I added. We now brought Duppo forward and introduced him, telling Ellen about his sister Oria.

"Except some pretty little monkeys, I do not wish for any others besides those I already have," said Ellen. Duppo and Oria understood Ellen's wish to obtain living creatures, and they were constantly seeking about, and coming back sometimes with a beautiful butterfly or moth, sometimes with parrots and other birds.
Duppo at length came back, and we all got into the canoe. Our friends insisted on our taking as many articles of food as we could possibly carry dried fish and meat, bananas and farinha, as well as fruit and vegetables. True as usual took his seat in the bows. We were just shoving off, when Maono and his wife came down to us leading Oria.
And Crisnarao restored the lands on the other side of the river, and kept those on the hither side for himself. How Crisnarao, after he had made peace with the King of Oria, determined to go against the land of Catuir.
Being in Oria, I wished to have as much certainty as possible in regard to the matter, and as I knew that Palma was in spiritual communication with many pious souls scattered over the earth, I said to her in the course of our conversation, 'tell me, Palma, do you know M. de X , giving her the baptismal name of the woman in question. 'No sir, she answered.
