At Timor, seven hundred Petis, two sails, and one bundle of rattans. 



At Mengcasar, or Macasar, two Gantangs of gun-powder, three sails s 

 and two bundles of rattans.

" When slaves are purchased at Java, the duty shall be calculated on 

 twelve men, for each division of the hold, and when at Mengcasar at ten 

 men for each division of the hold. 



" And whatever Prdhu goes to any country for the purpose of trading,

Of Detention. 



" The law is that when the season is nearly over ( Musim Kassis) and 

 the Nakhodah of the Prdhu omits to sail, the Khvi shall wait, on his ac- 

 count, for seven days ; after which, if the Nakhodah does not proceed, 

 and the season is over, the price paid for the divisions of the hold shall be 

 returned to the Kiwis. 



f If the Kiwis are the cause of the delay, and the season is nearly 

 over, the Ndkhodah shall detain the Prdhu seven days on their account, 

 after which he is authorized to sail without them, (if they are not ready) 

 and no more shall be paid or done relating thereto.
