every part, and their goods lost, were discouraged. Having held a
council that night, they very silently went to a village called San
Pablo. They were pursued by Don Luys de Velasco with five hundred
Spaniards and one thousand Indians, by order of Governor Don Pedro
de Acuña, before they reached San Pablo. The Sangleys killed of our
men six Spaniards and four Japanese, but it cost them fifteen hundred

confiscated for his Majesty. His houses were razed and their sites
sown with salt. This sentence proceeded from the royal Audiencia, and
was executed on the eleventh of the month of October. At the foot of
