134. FROM RAD AC K TO 



Ulle, and is likewise marked on the chart of 

 father Cantara, among the chain of the CaroHnas. 

 A short time ago, when the natives of Arno ven- 

 tured to make an incursion here, Xadu and Edock 

 recognized the islanders of Lamureck, with whom 

 they had formerly been on friendly terms. As they 

 had heard that the latter had perished, the joy 

 at their unexpected meeting was so great, that 

 Kadu told us they no longer troubled themselves 

 about the battle, but selected a lonely retreat, 

 where they mutually told each other their several 

 misfortunes. The names of the five natives of 

 Lamureck, are Quidal, Pegedu, Uderick, Katulgi, 

 and Udeben. Uderick is the name of an island- 

 group of Radack; and, from the similarity of names, 

 it may easily be concluded, that boats from the 

 Carolinas are often wrecked here. In the after- 

 noon I went on shore to take leave, when I was 

 received by the inhabitants with more kindness than 

 before, as they were now perfectly convinced of my 

 friendship, by the arms which they had received 

 from me. My dog only, which I had brought 

 from Beering^s Straits, and which died to-day of 

 convulsions, as the climate did not agree with 

 him, frightened them a little. Before Lebeuliet's 

 residence, a small fleet was equipped, probably 

 against the inhabitants of Mediuro ; two of these 

 boats, the largest which I saw here, were thirty- 

 eight feet long. Chamisso passed the night in the 

 Tamon's residence, in the hope of being tattooed.
