He gained a living by buying and selling cheese, shoes, handkerchiefs, et cetera, between Paliacate and Madras. It is a ten-hour journey from the one place to the other. The Abate wanted the Frate to give him a little something out of the gains squeezed from this miserable trade. While the two were arguing and the poverty-stricken friar was defending \[71\] himself, I, too, turned up, and just in time ; for I was forced to separate them, if I did not wish to see them give each other a hearty shoe-beating. But returning to the above-named friars (i.e., the two Dominicans from Persia) : for all the efforts they made to recover the money from the renegade (Khwãjah Ovan), they could never obtain it, for their debtor was in Mahomedan territory. The Reverend Father Fra Michel Ange made over to them a few things that he had in his custody. \[Omitted, fols. 71-73, the account of Father Peter Paul, the barefooted Carmelite. It has already appeared in Codex XLIV., Part IV., fols. 231-233.
