Note 157 — Chapter II

Reading edition

Colonel John D. Washburn, in a very careful paper in the Amer. Antiq. Soc. Proc., no. 58, 1872, suspects from Torquemada’s account (1615, published at Seville), as cited in the English version of Father Venegas’s History of California (Field, Indian Bibliography, 1,599, 1,600), that the port visited by Viscaino was Jack’s Bay, as indeed the original Spanish of Venegas (iii. III) distinctly says. Cf. also John T. Doyle’s paper, with an introduction by Colonel Washburn in Amer. Antiq. Soc. Proc., October, 1873.
