284

This day the Councill mett upon consideration of yesterdays transactions, and tis orderd that the Presidt. write a Letter to the Nabob, and to Amer John, Abdall Labby, and Ebrahim Cawn Gurry [? Ghori] about Selimon Cawns Villiany, because Ebrahim Cawn Gurry [Ghori] sent a message to the Governr. by a Mauldar [? 'amaldár, a factor, a manager] belonging to Pullaverta Cheercon [? karkun, a clerk],
Capt. Calib Tracy . . . yesterday was killd. . . .
Finding by this action of Selimon Cawn that most of the Moors are of a Base Treacherous and Perfidious temper It is thought requisite for future, that not above ten horsemen at a time, be permitted to come into the Town, and that all of them leave their arms at the gate with the Sentry, except 2 or 3 that may appear to be the Chiefest of them.
And haveing certain advices that Selimon Cawn arrived at Porto Novo yesterday about 4 a clock afternoon, tis thought requisite that the town of Trepopolore be preserved if possible, and tis ordered that Serjeant Smith with 12 English and 17 Portuguez Souldiers, doe repair to Trepopolore, where the Choultry they use to keep watch, being now entrench'd, that he remain there with his men and 30 peons, which we hope will be a means to prevent Collebeage [? Kali Beg] from tying up leaves, and the orders be given to Serjeant Smith with refference to the difference of yesterdays business.
