Note XXI-9 — Chapter XXI · RIVAL GOVERNORS IN HONDURAS AND NICARAGUA. 1526-1530.
Reading edition
According to Herrera, dec. iv. lib. iii. cap. ii., Gabriel de Rojas was offered the government, but declined to hold the province except for the king direct; whereupon he was arrested and Garabito given the command. He seems confused, however, while Cereceda's account is most clear on all these points. Carta, MS., 3-6. Oviedo is quite brief. iii. 190.
