Note 88 — Chapter V · QUIVIRA.
Reading edition
The legend stands in the Martyrology under date of the 30th of November, but Gonzaga (“Orígen de la religion seráfica,” 1587, Part I., p. 105) is mistaken when he says that the event happened in the year 1560. Mota-Padilla depends on the manuscript of Don Pedro de Tobar, who fixes the date at 1542, which agrees closely with the statements of the monk’s contemporaries—Casteñeda’s error excepted.
