The Liverpool Ladies are very civil to me--I am admitted into good Society--Introduced to Captain Levee--Again sail to Senegal--Overhear a Conspiracy to seize the Ship by the Crew of a Slaver, but am enabled to defeat it--Am thanked and rewarded by the Owner--Take a Trip to London with Captain Levee--Stopped by Highwaymen on the Road--Put up at a Tavern--Dissipated Town Life--Remove to a genteel Boarding-House--Meet with a Government Spy--Return to Liverpool. As the captain reported me to be a very attentive and good officer, although I was then but twenty-three years of age, and as I had been previously on good terms and useful to the owner, I was kindly received by him, and paid much more attention to, than my situation on board might warrant. My captivity among the Negroes, and the narrative I gave of my adventures, were also a source of much interest. I was at first questioned by the gentlemen of Liverpool, and afterwards one of the merchant's ladies, who had heard something of my adventures, and found out that I was a young and personable man, with better manners than are usually to be found before the mast, invited me one evening to a tea-party, that I might amuse her friends with my adventures. They were most curious about the Negro queen, Whyna, inquiring into every particular as to her personal appearance and dress, and trying to find out, as women always do, if there was any thing of an intrigue between us. They shook their little fingers at me, when I solemnly declared that there was not, and one or two of them cajoled me aside to obtain my acknowledgment of what they really believed to be the truth, although I would not confess it.
