- 3. What Wood Or Timber May Be Had, And In What Manner It May Be Carried?

- 4.

What victuals are to be procured in the country, and what kinds of our victuals are best calculated for keeping there? - 5. The place must be strong by nature, or capable of being made strong at small expence, and of being afterwards defended by a small number of men. - 6. How water is to be procured, if none is to be had on the ground where the fort is to stand, or at least near it? - 7. What help may be expected from the natives, either in building the fort, or in defending it afterwards?

You are to sound the King of Habaan at a distance as to the erection of a fort in his country, taking notice how he relishes the proposal; yet you will so manage your communication with him that he may not understand your meaning, although there may seem good cause for its erection.

You will search the country as far as you can, both along the coast and into the interior. You will likewise use your endeavours to learn what became of the merchants who were left at Benin. In all other important matters worthy of notice, we have no doubt that you will diligently inquire and report to us, which we leave to your good discretion. We also request, that you will aid and assist our factors on all occasions, both with your advice and otherwise; and thus God send you safely to return.
