Other letters contain information of a distressing
nature. It appears that a Sardinian vessel had at-
tempted to secrete a number of Greeks on board who
were endeavouring to escape from their persecutors,
the Turks, but intelligence of this circumstance was
conveyed to the Commander of a Turkish vessel of
war, who instantly set sail in quest of the Sardinian,
which made little resistance ; but the Turkish Officer
assured the crew, that neither they nor the Greeks on
board should be ill-used, but that they must return
to the place from whence they took their departure.
Nu sooner were the Greeks landed before they were
indiscriminately butchered by the Turks, together
with the Captain of the Sardinian, and one or two
of the crew.
