On the 17th of February we arrived at Bombay. The intelligence of our arrival soon reached the Mission house. Mr. Newell came on board and made arrangements for the journey to the mission station, as soon as permission could be obtained for landing, which would probably be on the following day, and as the distance was only a few miles, Mr. Newell went home and was to return next day, with a carriage to carry them to their future residence. The permit for landing came off at nine o'clock A. M. The captain went on shore, and in an hour returned, saying to Miss Thurston that as he had specie for the Mission house, he must go immediately up, and engaged a horse and buggy, and should be happy to have her accompany him, as in all probability the carriage which would be sent for them would be crowded.
To this proposal all seemed to acquiesce, so Philomela, dressed in her go-ashore attire, stepped into the boat, and no doubt the poor girl leaped for joy at the idea of once more stepping foot on the land, and of being liberated from what must have been to her a dreadful prison. Bat little did she think that in complying with this apparently very polite invitation, that she was adding to the weight of calumny that would naturally reach the ears of Mr. Newell. This wily and designing man, instead of driving directly to the mission house, which could have been reached in less than two hours, and thus giving Mr. Newell an opportunity of a private interview with his intended bride, drove around through the jungle, a solitary road through the woo'fs, making a circuit of many miles, and taking up the greater part of the day.
