Collectanea

"Major Stovin, having retired with his detachment to the
"fortress, in order to secure it, the country people entered
"the town, and assailed and burnt the houses of those persons
"who were known to have supported the new tax. Sir Thomas
"Maitland, being absent from the islands when the news
"of the affair reached Corfu, Sir Fraederic Adam sent 350
"men, with artillery, to Santa Mausa."

"There are some apprehensions that the same
"spirit may manifest itself in other islands, particularly in
"Gante and Cephalonia, the inhabitants of which might make
"a stand in their mountains for a long time. In that case our
"situation would become very critical, as the British forces
"are at present hardly adequate to the garrison duty of this
"and the other fortified places in the Island: and in consequence
"of the existing system of administration in this Country,
"the majority of the natives can no longer be depended on."
