Antigua, October 24.  Sir,  You can't expect a long letter
from one who hath had but two nights sleep since the 17th
instant, occasioned by the providencial discovery of a plott
among the Negroes here for a general massacre. . . [12

who would have undertaken the building of the seats at any
rate, he being a carpenter, was to have convey'd some gun
powder under them. . .
