[313] “In the month of August, Sir Archibald Campbell went down to
Rangoon, and returned from that place to Prome, in the steam-vessel the
_Diana_, with as much ease and tranquillity as we go from London-bridge
to Ramsgate and back again.”—Mac Farlane.

in the stockades at Prome, ordering white slaves to be sent up to Ava,
for the use of the Ava ladies.”
