His description is nearly as follows [voici à-peu-près son signalement] : a coal black about five feet six or eight inches high, very stout made, his face rather rough by having pimples on it, a large nose a downcast look when spoke to with a defect in his walk if closely examined : he is a French negro, speaks Spanish pretty well and a little English.
