Abstract

Dahomey overrun the kingdom of Ardrah, that lay between his capital and the seacoast, and seized in its chief town a European factor. This European captive, and agent for the English African Company, Mr. Bulfinch Lamb, though carried captive to Abomey, was well and kindly treated by the dark monarch, and so far allowed his liberty, as to be permitted to correspond with his superior, the commandant of the English fort at Whydah
