[Harrisse, Bibl. Amer. Vet., no. 239; Sabin, vol. iii. no. 9,767. There is a copy in the Lenox Library. Cf. the Relacion as given in the Documentos inéditos, vol. xiv. pp. 265-279, and the “Capitulacion que se tomó con Panfilo de Narvaez” in vol. xxii. p. 224. There is some diversity of opinion as to the trustworthiness of this narrative; cf.
