The ij bongews of our shipp Adviz came to the English howse and fell a swaggaring, and gave us bad wordes about the stealing of Mr. Tottons coate, and, doe what I could, I could not get them out of the howse. So I was forced to send Mr. Osterwick with a jurebasso to Tonomon Samme, or Taccamon Dono, to comand them out of our howse, because we could not be in quiet for them. But the noble men were gon a hunting, and the brablars departed when they thought good.
