Mentions letter from Ahmet Bashaw Caramanli, received on 12 October 1809. 27 October: "The American Janissary was beaten at the Marine by the Bashaw's Kasnadan." Davis vows to file a formal complaint despite the Bashaw's attempt to prevent such action.

GLC 2794.154 also refers to this incident. 18 November entry also mentions: "[n]egociated Mr [Tobias] Lear's bill in favor of Bryan McDonough, Esq:--" Journal entries spanning 11 October to 24 November 1809.
