The Dutch were dealt with like the English, but they were 'well stored with provisions.' The native brokers of the French Company and of the New (English) Company were released, but those of the Dutch and English were 'barbarously tortured.' Three lakhs of rupees were extorted from the 'Parakhs,' and three from the Dutch brokers. After thirteen days a small daily portion of provisions was admitted to the English and Dutch factories, and on October 13 three servants were allowed entrance. On November 26 matters were still in the same position. Up to February 16, 1704, the two factories were still guarded, but by a smaller number of men; also provisions and servants were more freely admitted, and all of the Europeans might walk about the city, 'except John Gayer and Stephen Colt.' On March 15, 1704, the guards were removed. At the request of Gayer, Nicholas Waite, the New Company's official at Bombay, sent the ships Samuel and Mary, and the sloop Beatrix, to 'lay before the bar' and go in search of the pirates. This was in September, 1703. In the same month seven Dutch ships arrived from Batavia and 'stopped the port' until, in February, 1704, 'matters were accommodated.'
