Adventure of [[Buffalora]]

they would sacrifice to their Resentment,
I had address enough by a seeming
Compliance with all the man did, &
myself untying my Bundles to ease him
of trouble & soft words, I had address eno'
to cover my Rings & some Womens Paste,
w'ch [which] I had bought to make a present of -
& they escaped his notice, as well as a
Portrait in Miniature set in Gold w'ch [which] I
valued above any thing else I had there.

As to [[Mr. Powels]] Trunk not the most
conceald or private thing escap'd [escaped] - and as
he thought he had nothing w'ch [which] the man
would dare to sieze, & perhaps finding
his Man more intractable, he left him
more at liberty to pursue his anger,
whichout endeavouring to mollify or
controul it - Every thing was then disputed.
His Hankerchiefs - his Silk Stockens - his Razors
Rin Antique Rings - a Small Painting
a little Box of Perfumes like a small book -
All were siezed & we were threatened with
being Sent back to [[Milan]], as [[Mr. Powel]]
would not tamely submit to their being
confiscated - Tho' willing to pay any Duty
upon them -
