Note 323 — Chapter I · (continued 2)
Reading edition
The Bishop, in his subsequent Los restos de Colon (Santo Domingo, 1879), written after his honesty in the matter was impugned, and with the aim of giving a full exposition, shows, in cap. xviii. how the discovery, as he claimed it, interested the world. Various contemporaneous documents are also given in Colon en Quisqueya, Coleccion de documentos, etc., Santo Domingo, 1877. A movement was made to erect a monument in Santo Domingo, and some response was received from the United States.
