We found the chief setting in the shade under a large Tree, with a Circle of old men round him; he made us set down by him, and immediately asked for the Axe.

I then gave him one, together with an upper Garment made of Broad Cloth after their Fashion, and a Shirt.

The Garment he put on, but the Shirt he gave to the man who first received us at landing, who was now seated by us, and the Chief seemed desirous that we should take particular notice of him.

By that Time Obaria, and several other women whom we knew, came and sat down by us.

Tootaha did not stay long before he went away, as we thought to show himself to the people in his new Dress.
