Note 508 — Chapter VI · THE FINDING OF STRANGE COASTS.
Reading edition
Footnote 508: I cite this version from Irving's Columbus, vol. i. p. 142, making a slight amendment in the rendering; the original text is in Navarrete, tom. ii. p. 7. A few days later the title of "Don" was granted to Columbus and made hereditary in his family along with the offices of viceroy and governor-general.[Back to Main Text]
