Note 2 — LETTER FROM MARTIN DE RADA TO THE MARQUIS DE FALÇES
Reading edition
The Census of the Philippine Islands (Washington, 1905) gives (i, p. 57) the area of Luzón as 40,969 square miles, and that of Mindanao, as 36,292 square miles. These figures being later than those of VOL. XXIII, p. 165, note 29, have probably a better scientific basis, and are hence more nearly correct. ↑
