THE FELATAHS. 451 



Within the hist four months the Felatahs 

 had plundered Corracu, carrying off goats, fowls, 

 &c. together with a great number of the inhabit- 

 ants, whom they take away with them as slaves. 

 Hearing everywhere such accounts of the Fela- 

 tahs, I had a great desire to see some of them. 

 They are reported to be brave and warlike, and 

 much superior to the generality of the natives ; 

 but their character is sullied by their cruelties-, 

 and by their neglect of their sick and wounded, 

 who are unable to keep up with them on their 

 journeys, and whom they leave to the mercy of 

 their enemies, these never failing on their part to 

 put them to a most cruel death. 



Thermometer, 85°.
