Note IV‑9 — Chapter IV · THE CAKCHIQUELS AGAIN IN REVOLT. 1525-1526.
Reading edition
No two authorities agree as to the time of his departure. Vazquez states that he left in the month of January 1526, Chronica de Gvat., 69, and Juarros in February, Guat. (ed. London, 1823), 433; while Brasseur de Bourbourg gives the 10th of May as the date. Remesal altogether ignores Alvarado's expedition to Honduras, and states that he remained in Santiago until he received news of the arrival of Cortés at Vera Cruz, whereupon he again brought forward the question of his own departure for Mexico. Hist. Chyapa, 8.
