(O.C. No. 2200) : ' The Portugalls of S. tomey have lately by order from the V. Roy tendered us much amyty for the time to come, but never a word of reparation for passed Injuries. . . .' The priest administering the diocese also sent a letter asking the father to visit him on some important but secret business that had to be communicated to him. Upon this the worthy priest set out ; but no sooner was he arrived near San Thome, although there he was still in Mahomedan territory, than he was seized, taken into the town, and carried to the Jesuit convent, being subjected on the way there to much abusive language from one of those who had seized him. There he found the priest administering the diocese seated on a chair. As soon as he appeared orders were given to put irons on his legs. This was done, but the irons were so small, so heavy, and so inconvenient, that at each step he fell like one dead. Noticing this, they were obliged to change them on the following day for others. In these he remained, at sea as on land, until November 10 (1649). Then, if it had not been for the reverend father Manuel de St. Joseph, Cordelier, who became surety to answer for him in his own person, and of his own authority removed these irons, he would have borne them until reaching Goa. - [Previous: 297](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.297) - [Next: 298.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.298.2) - [Up: 298](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.298) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.298.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.298.1) · Pramāṇa
