NARRATIVES. MASSACRE AT MANILLA. At Manilla, on the 9th day of October 1820, the Indians, in a large body, excited by the Spaniards, commenced the massacre and plunder of all the foreigners they could lay their hands on, and continued the bloody business until the afternoon of the 11th. The following account is written by an American gentleman, Mr. Prince, who was an eyewitness to the massacre, and narrowly escaped death. The French are supposed to have lost 212,000 dollars: and the Chinese, who were assassinated to the number of 85, a much more considerable sum. Mr. Prince's Account of the Massacre at Manilla, on the 9th October, 1820. The attack commenced about 11 a. m. on Mr. Godfroi, a surgeon, in the street of Santa Cruz: they cut and mangled him in a shocking manner, and left him for dead; he was taken to the guard-house, and, on his coming to his senses, his hands were tied behind him by the Spanish soldiers, and he was carried into the corregidor's prison, where he remained 24 hours, without any assistance; he was then sent to the hospital, and I am happy to say, that when I left he was recovering fast. The report of this act of atrocity spread fast, but it was rumoured that I had been the sufferer. Captain Nicholls, on hearing it, immediately started to my assistance, leaving a note to Warrington and Wilson, informing them of the event, and requesting them to follow. This note was shortly after received by captain Warrington; he and Mr. Wilson proceeded towards the quarter of St. Miguel, where I resided. At the apothecary's shop, in the Escalta, they met Mr. Stewart, American consul, and captain Balston, of the English country ship Edward Strettel, who informed them that Nicholls had ascertained it was Godfroi who was wounded, and that he had met Godfroi the nanot me, as he had supposed; and turalist, and that both of them had gone to the palace to demand protection and assistance from the governor. Godfroi and Nicholls shortly after joined them. Nicholls said, the only satisfaction they could get from the governor was "that he would consider of it." The whole of the company (Stewart and Balston excepted) now started to visit the wounded Godfroi. Warrington was called back by these two, and advised not to proceed; but he jumped into his carriage, and ordered the coachman to drive'and overtake his companions. The mob at this time. was large, and was growing so out |
