Notes:
The audience was disorderly due to being kept waiting thirty minutes.
He performed feats of strength in manipulating weights. Performed feasts with a saber; cutting through a piece of lead slung by loops of cord from the points of two other swords, cutting through a potato on the neck of a native without taking away any flesh. Other feats with the sword were carried out and were loudly applauded.
Nobody accepted Ross's open challenge to wrestle him, so he called up two men by name.
