I did not, on the occasion of my first visit, see anything of the Achinese.

He said that in the interior the Dutch were still fighting the Achinese.

Holland, I believe, has spent already something like 500,000,000 florins to exterminate the Achinese.

At some places we saw some small hogs, which we could have bought of them reasonably; but we would not offend our Achinese friends, who were Mahometans.

So that while these continued firm, the vessel could not overset, which she would easily have done without them, and with them too, had they not been made very strong; and we were therefore much beholden to our Achinese companions for this contrivance.
