Note 276 — Chapter V · THE SPANISH MISSIONS.
Reading edition
Relation de la Floride apportée par Frère Gregorio de Beteta, in Ternaux’s Recueil. They did not touch the coast beyond the Bay of Apalache nor much south of Tampa Bay. Both Barcia (En. Cron. Año 1549) and Herrera (Dec. VIII., Lib. V., cap. XIV., XV.) say they entered the latter, but this cannot be, as the supposed description is entirely inapplicable. For other particulars see Eden’s translation of Peter Martyr, (fol. 319, Londini, 1555.)
