We find at this time the Kattiawar traders complaining of two ships having been seized that held protective passes from Angria.

In reply they were told that they must have English passes.

The Company was at war with Angria, and his power was increased by those who paid him for protection.

So, like all neutrals, they had to suffer in a war with which they had no concern.
Apprehensive of a fresh attack after the monsoon, Angria opened delusive negotiations for a treaty of peace, through his feudal lord, Sahoojee.
Boone was regularly taken in, and announced with satisfaction, to the Directors, that a treaty had been made, under which Angria contracted to restore all ships and vessels he had taken, except the _Success_, which was hopelessly decayed, for which he was to pay Rs.10,000, or to restore goods to that amount.

In lieu of captured cargoes he was to pay Rs.50,000, or to give goods of equal value, and within two years he was to pay Rs.10,000 more, for which payment Sahoojee undertook to be surety.
