On the same day the head of Conimere Factory wrote to warn the commissary that the faujdār of Jinjī had \[sent\] out horsemen to intercept the party while on their way to Tegenapatam (Cuddalore). In consequence, Governor Martin at dinner-time offered them an escort. The party of Dutchmen left Pondicherry on February 3, 1705, towards evening, accompanied by an escort of twenty-four French soldiers under a captain. They spent the night in a house about a mile from the fort. Next day early \[the 4th\] they passed within half a mile of Alechivabe, where the native attack was expected. There they were received by a captain and forty-eight men sent them by Mr. Gabriel Roberts, governor of the English fort of St. David at Cuddalore. They were conducted to the Company's factory at Tegenapatam, reaching it about mid-day. Continuing their journey, they camped on the 9th at China \[blank\], and finally, next day (February 10, 1705), marched into Negapatam.\] - [Previous: 346.2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.346.2.4) - [Next: 346.2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.346.2.6) - [Up: 346.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.346.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.346.2.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.346.2.5) · Pramāṇa
