This morning the Presidt. received an answer from Ebrahim Cawn Gurry, expressing that Selimon Cawn had done a great deal of mischief without reason; that he would endeavour to perswade him to make restitution, and intended to come to Selimon Cawn's Camp for that purpose.
About 12 a clock we discovered Ebrahim Cawn Gurry come to Selimon Cawns camp, which remains upon the Hills, just without our random; Upon his comeing into the bounds he sent a Mauldar to the Presidt. to send our Egip Braminy to meet him at Selimon Cawns Camp, haveing desired the same in his letter; Our Egip did not return till about midnight when a Braminy from Ebrahim Cawn Gurry came with him, and finding by our Egip that his discourse to him was much different to what he writt in his letter, we thought fitt to hear what his Braminy had to say in the morning. This day Selimon Cawns people burnt what houses remaining, and cut what Paddy they could come at, that was growing upon the ground.
