Once more we give you notice that we mean to be paid that large sum of money which we have detailed in various statements. As, moreover, we demand the return to us of the bond binding us for the security of the \[Mogul\] ships ; we shall take by force all vessels entering into and issuing from the said port, whether Mahomedan or Hindu. Furthermore, we demand, if you want to be left to live in peace, that you grant us permission to establish a factory near the sea, at the mouth of the river of Surat. We await an immediate reply, and if you are not prompt in rendering the desired satisfaction, we shall write to our prince and do as he orders us.' This letter was sent on by the governor to the court, but up to this time they have seen no reply, the king being busy with the above campaign. Meanwhile the Dutch are compelled, by the approach of the monsoon, to withdraw. When that season is over we shall see what will happen, nor shall I omit to give an account of it to the inquiring reader. - [Previous: 344.1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.344.1.3) - [Next: 344.1.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.344.1.5) - [Up: 344.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.344.1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.344.1.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.344.1.4) · Pramāṇa
