A Portuguese gentleman, formerly a lieutenant in the army, and now living on Sangwisa, one of the islands of the Zambesi, came over with his slaves, to aid us in getting the ship off. He said frankly, that his people were all great thieves, and we must be on our guard not to leave anything about.
We paid his men for helping us, and believe that even they, being paid, stole nothing from us. Our friend farms pretty extensively the large island called Sangwisa, lent him for nothing by Senhor Ferrao, and raises large quantities of mapira and beans, and also beautiful white rice, grown from seed brought a few years ago from South Carolina.
