Three or four days after arriving at MAHE, one of the Seychelles group, I was fortunate enough to get a passage for myself, William Lawrence Farquhar, and an Arab boy from Jerusalem, who was to act as interpreter- on board an American whaling vessel, bound for Zanzibar; at which port we arrived on the 6th of January, 1871. I have skimmed over my travels thus far, because these do not concern the reader.
