Cristoforo Colombo e il nuovo mondo della sua scoperta : una storia feredly, nessuno degli uomini di Bartholomews sono stati uccisi, e un altro insieme è stato ferito. Il giorno seguente tutti i mutinieri si sono fatti arrendere, sottomettendo un giuramento di fedeltà; e Colombo, sempre strangelymagnanimoso ai ribelli e agli insorti, ha perdonato il tutto ad eccezione di Francisco de Porras, che, uno felice di sapere, era confinato in ferri da stiro per essere inviato a Spainfor Trial. Questa sottomissione, dovuta alla pronta azione di Bartolomeo piuttosto che alla debole diplomazia dell'Ammiraglio, prese

The next daythe mutineers all came in to surrender, submitting anabject oath of allegiance; and Columbus, always strangelymagnanimous to rebels and insurgents, pardoned themall with the exception of Francisco de Porras, who, one isglad to know, was confined in irons to be sent to Spainfor trial. This submission, which was due to the prompt actionof Bartholomew rather than to the somewhat feeble diplo-macy of the Admiral, took place on March 20th, and provedsomewhat embarrassing to Columbus. He could put nofaith in the oaths and protestations of the mutineers; andhe was very doubtful about the wisdom of establishingthem once more on the wrecks with the hitherto orderlyremnant. He therefore divided them up into several bands, and placing each under the command of an officer whomhe could trust, he supplied them with trinkets and de-[ 220 ] THE WEST inPIES, BlustratiBg theYoya^es of COLUMBUS..

By this means the last month or twoof this most trying and exciting sojourn on the islandof Jamaica were passed in some measure of peace; andtowards the end of June it was brought to an end bythe arrival of two caravels. One of them was the shippurchased by Diego Mendez out of the three which hadarrived from Spain ; and the other had been despatchedby Ovando in deference, it is said, to public feeling inSan Domingo, which had been so influenced by Mendezsaccount of the Admirals heroic adventures that Ovandodared not neglect him any longer. Moreover, if it hadever been his hope that the Admiral would perish on theisland of Jamaica, that hope was now doomed to frus-tration, and, as he was to be rescued in spite of all, Ovando no doubt thought that he might as well, fort
