The foregoing details are mainly taken from Mundy's _Rajah Brooke's Journals_. The captured cannon were sent to England. St. John says some were melted up to construct cannon for the Crimea.—_Forests of the Far East_ Brunis were famous brass-founders, and many of these guns must have been very old. Footnote 136: _Private Letters of the Rajah._ Footnote 137: His son, the Pangiran Muda, is still alive in Bruni. Footnote 138: The tribute was cancelled by the release of a debt due to the Rajah by the Sultan, the interest upon which was equivalent to the yearly tribute. Footnote 139: Though this deed bore the seal of Pangiran Abdul Mumin, he confirmed it by another granted in 1853, after he had become Sultan. Only copies, attested by H.M.'s Consul-General, exist now, the originals, together with the two previous grants, having been burnt during the Chinese rebellion of 1857. Footnote 140: Letter to the Earl of Clarendon, September 27, 1853. Footnote 141: Captain Mundy said truly of the Rajah that he was the _de facto_ sovereign of the whole coast of Borneo from point Api (he should have said Cape Datu) to Marudu, 700 miles in extent. Footnote 142: The territory of Sarawak then extended to Cape Kedurong. Footnote 143: Mundy, _op. cit._ Footnote 144: From _Blue Book_, March 2, 1854. Footnote 145: _Private Letters._ Footnote 146: Letter from the Rajah to the Tuan Muda, 1864. Footnote 147: From Mundy, _op. cit._ Footnote 148: Of these, three foundered from injuries received during the engagement, so that few returned home to tell the tale. It took the Balenini about fifteen years to forget the lesson.—_Sir James Brooke_, St. John. Footnote 149: Mundy, _op. cit._ Footnote 150: _Private Letters._ Footnote 151: He joined the Rajah in March, 1843, having previously served in the H.E.I. Co.'s Navy, and became Police Magistrate and Government Secretary. In 1863 he was appointed Resident of Sarawak. He frequently administered the Government during the absences of the late and the present Rajah. He retired in 1873, and died in 1891. Footnote 152: The warrant of investiture was issued by her Majesty on May 22, 1848. Footnote 153: Amongst others who came out with the Rajah in the _Mæander_ were Mr. Spenser St. John, afterwards Sir Spenser St. John, G.C.M.G., the Rajah's Secretary; and Mr. Hugh Low, afterwards Sir Hugh Low, G.C.M.G., Colonial Secretary at Labuan. Mr. St. John was Consul-General at Bruni from 1853-1861; he left Borneo the latter year upon promotion. Mr. Low had before spent some three years in Sarawak botanising. He left Labuan in 1877, when he was appointed Resident of Perak. Footnote 154: The eldest son of the Rev. Francis Charles Johnson, Vicar of White Lackington, Somersetshire, by Emma, the Rajah's second sister. Footnote 155:
