Examples
About this time the fort of Daman, towards the frontier of Guzerat, was threatened by a detachment of 3000 Mogul horse.
I sent Ali a present of five garments of cotton cloth, which I purchased of Daman for one of my fowling-pieces.
Daman got nothing from me, and that very evening the praus were ordered by Belarab to leave the lagoon.
Lingard had not the slightest doubt Daman wanted him to know what had been done with the prisoners.
Belarab murmured, "You ought to have allowed me to make friends with Daman last night."
