But with respect to the unhappy man, who is now opposite to us, and whom you may distinguish, as he is now looking back and wringing his hands in despair, I can inform you with more precision.

He is an unfortunate convict.

He lived only about five days journey from the factory.

He went out with his king to hunt, and was one of his train; but, through too great an anxiety to afford his royal master diversion, he roused the game from the covert rather sooner than was expected.

The king, exasperated at this circumstance, immediately sentenced him to slavery.
