Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
127
CHAPTER
XV.
The
Author
is
ordered
to
depart
from
Symzonia.--The
Best
Man's
reasons
for
sending
him
away.--His
ineffectual
efforts
to
obtain
a
place
of
rendezvous
for
purposes
of
trade.
It
was
on
my
return
from
this
visit
to
the
pearl
wash
maker,
that
I
received
notice
to
wait
upon
the
Best
Man.
I
immediately
repaired
to
his
dwelling,
with
a
light
heart,
in
expectation
of
my
usual
intellectual
feast
from
his
conversation,
little
suspecting
that
this
interview
was
to
be
the
last.
He
received
me
with
a
mild
solemnity
of
manner,
which
warned
me
that
the
interview
was
for
some
purpose
of
importance.
He
did
not
keep
me
in
suspense,
but
in
a
kind
and
benevolent
manner
informed
me
that
the
Wise
men,
to
whom
the
copies
of
my
books
had
been
given,
had
all
made
their
reports,
which,
together
with
the
accounts
of
those
who
had
observed
the
habits
of
myself
and
people,
and
been
in
the
most
favourable
situation
to
ascertain
my
sentiments,
had
been
submitted
to
him
in
council;
that
he
had
taken
full
time
to
reflect
on
the
subject,
before
he
determined
on
the
painful
measure
which
his
duty
to
his
people
imposed
upon
him:
