6th Wts for the King.
Sobhany Thannadar

Sometime in July last year Mr. Motte sent for me one night, I went and found the body of a white Portuf in the street. He was alive, and I asked him sevl times who had killed him but he cod not speak, & appeard to be in great pain. I found this knife, & this bayonet fixed to the stick as it is now, both lying near his body. I orderd the people by Mr. Motte’s direction to remove him to his own house. Mr.
