found that two dollars In money had
been taken from his pants. Coming
directly IL town he informed the

he was captured blythe crew Of the Wan.

Int ten years old, and was on his way with
eight older negroes who were going to the
coast to trade for clothes and calico. They
were captured by fity-seyen white men.
There was no war between the tribes at the
time. Tukay's tribe lived long way, $50
miles, back from the coast. Out Of the 400
slaves on the Wanderer, forty OF them
died. :,
Tukay says the women Of his tribe do all

trained soldiers and hunters, and do not
