Boronat asserts (I, 157) that the greater part of the Valencian Moors embarked at Coruña, while large numbers, from the rest of Spain, went to France by way of Biscay, but he cites no authority and the documents and contemporary writers are silent as to any such exodus, while statistics and the course of events show that, except those who escaped to Barbary, practically the whole Moorish population was retained.
