At the same time he directed a serving-boy to carry water to the latrine for ablutions in the Moorish fashion. He then quitted the horseman, and without delay mounted his horse, followed by slaves carrying off all that he had, which was kept ready prepared for this purpose. He took the road to Smyrna, which he reached in twenty-four hours, although usually six days are required. In the harbour was a Dutch vessel, to the captain of which Anthoine Cheleby addressed himself, promising to pay him double what he could gain by remaining anchored, if he would carry him and his men to Leghorn. The captain accepted the proposal, Anthoine Cheleby embarked, and they reached Leghorn. There the captain received in full what had been promised to him by the Armenian. At Leghorn the latter built a bath for his own use, and the perpetuation of his memory among the people. We pursued our route along with the caravan, which was a very large one. In it were several Armenian merchants, who looked after our food, also our horses, mules, and camels. We put up in their tents, where we were very well treated; but this was not done without an object, for the Armenians are very fond of their own interest. After some days we arrived at Tocat (Tokat). - [Previous: 25.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.25.3) - [Next: 26.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.26.1) - [Up: 25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.25) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.25.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.25.4) · Pramāṇa
