much TO be trusted.


II has been reported, much to the pre-
iudice OF 'Iamaah maah's benevolent, hu-
manc, and friendly character. that he was
principally accessory in the taking of the
Schooner called the Fair American, Mr..
Mc0Cal!. the Younger, Commander. Such
report. find. from the undoubtcd author
ity of Isaac Davis, who was captured in
her, and now residing with Tamaah maah,
to be totally @roundlcss. and that he had
not the smallest knowledge or acquaint-
ancc of the matter until it was finally ac-
counplisIcd: that horrid deed being exc
cutcd by Il Chief named Tamaah Motoo
the principal part being the murder of the
commander. was executed by himself, and
the rest by his people, without any other
Chief being concerned. This Tanaah
Mo'oo should be strictly guarded against,
he having always joined Hannah in all
his plans and proposed projects for cap
turing small vessels which plans, by Ia
maah maaE, kahou Motoo, Tirri Mtii
and Carahcro. have been uniformly op-
posed; and by such means some vessels
which, without the knowledge of those on
board, were in the most imincnt danger
of destruction, by their means were pre-
served, and departed in peace.

as such they have acknowledged them
selves under my authority and for divers
and good essential reasons have given
them my permission still to remain ON this
