chap, xv.] MACASSAR. 357 



On December 13th I went on board a prau bound for 

 the Aru Islands, a journey which will be described in the 

 latter part of this work. 



On my return, after a seven months' absence, I visited 

 another district to the north of Macassar, which will form 

 the subject of the next chapter.
