From Sketches by A. M. Horwood.

   1- I was waiting on the Quay at Smyrna for the Victoria's boats to convey me on board, when I espied a man vending what I happened very much to require (Flannel Shirts).

   2- So retreating into a corner I entered into negotiations with the merchant.

   3- But somehow we could not come to terms.
  
   4- This being the case I turned away.

   5- But my footsteps were dogged

   6- And for the next quarter-of-an-hour I was subjected to this sort of thing.

   7- While to crown all, just as we were pushing off in the cutter (which was full of ladies), the wretch, reconsidering my offer, tossed me the articles of wearing apparel.  It was very awkward.

Condition is Very Good.
