So Torquemada, iii. 332, assumes, followed by Beaumont, yet it is not
unlikely that the baptism took place later, though not after 1529, as shown
by Pilar, in Icazbalceta, Col. Doc., ii. 248. Alegre names him Antonio. Hist.

He is highly spoken of for his charitable character and rigid observance
of rules. After working zealously in Michoacan he went with Cortes to Cal
ifornia, became guardian at Cuernavaca, returned to Patzcuaro, where he
died probably in 1558. Vetancurt says September 25th, omitting the year.

Bolonia, and Juan de Padilla, and Beaumont insists on accepting them, but
Torquemada points out that some of these arrived only in 1527. Brasseur de
Bourbourg, Hist. Nat. Civ., iv. 731, 745-6, takes a ground opposite to the
clear statements of Mendieta, and perverts his quoted authority, Torque

The king was apparently at liberty, but a guard, specially appointed to
watch him, would have made futile any attempt to escape. Guzman, 4 a Rd-

Garcia del Pilar and the alcalde Godoy were employed for the purpose,
but the statement of the former leaves it uncertain whether the king was tor
tured while in Tzintzuntzan. An order was given, but before it was carried
into effect two friars interceded and the king was restored to his prison, where
he was kept altogether about three weeks, until the march of the army was
resumed. Pilar, Relation, 248-9; Guzman, fa An6n., 463.

THE TORTURE APPLIED. 345
10
Beaumont, Cr6n. Mich., iii. 354-60, followed by Ramirez, Proceso, 203-6,
and others, represents the army as having r -ached the river 011 December 8th
at Conguripo, whence they went to Tzint/ itzan, thence to Puruancliro, and
1
after advancing a few leagues crossed a groat river. No one would suppose
from this version that Conguripo and the crossing near Puruandiro were
identical as is the fact; clearly the authors had no such idea themselves.
Other writers, as Frejes, H\*t. Breve, 73, and Romero, Not. Mich., 122, make
December 8th the date of the final crossing. But most of the original
documents say the river was forded in February, while Guzman in Rarnusio,
iii. 331, and
Oviedo, iii. 563-5, affirm it was on Purification day, or February
2d. The confusion in dates, and consequent blunder in the route, arises doubt
less from the fact that certain writers, learning that the event took place on
the day of Nuestra Sefiora, have supposed it was the Conception, December
8th, instead of the Purification, February 2d, of our lady. Throughout this
campaign there is the greatest confusion in dates. I have spared 110 pains in
ascertaining in each case the exact or approximate dates; but I have not
deemed it best, except in a few cases for special reasons, to show in notes the
methods of arriving at my conclusions. I have abundant material at hand
for such notes, but they would be long and numerous, and serve no useful
purpose save perhaps as a record of the author s industry.

Pilar and the author of the 4 a Rel- An6n. state that the day after the
torturing of Caltzontzin, several of Guzman s followers left the camp and
returned some days later with a great quantity of gold and silver, found in a
house indicated by the king when under torture. Pilar, Relation, 250-1, and

TANGAXOAN BURNED. 347
Carta a S. J/., in Ramusio, iii. 331, says that Tangaxoan was tried on many
charges, especially that of rebellious designs, impudently referring to the
records of the trial. If from the standpoint of the times we admit relapse
into idolatry as a justification for his death, it is very evident from the friend
ship of the friars for Caltzontzin that there was no such relapse in his case.

1 deem it useless to give long lists of town names, most of which can be
found on the maps, but very few of which are applied to the same localities
as in aboriginal times. The original towns were for the most part destroyed,
and those which succeeded them under Spanish auspices have in many instances
experienced several changes of locality, while retaining the same names. As
a rule I shall name only such towns as are necessary to show the route fol
lowed, and such as acquired some importance in later times. Among the acta
of cruelty perpetrated in this region was the setting a fierce dog on the fat
cacique of Cuitzeo for alleged neglect in furnishing supplies, an act attributed
by Salazar y Olarte, Conq. Mex., 426-8, to a delirious impulse on the part
of Guzman. A Mexican chief also was so beaten for some fancied misconduct
that he lost permanently the use of his hands. Guzman, 4 a ^ e ^- Antfn., 467.
Navarrete, Hist. Jal., 35, speaks of the artificial formation of a ford by filling
the river with sand. Guzman, Ramusio, iii. 332-4, tells us of finding cannibals
and burning a sodomite; he regrets the idolatrous tendencies of the natives,
and says uncontradicted so far as I know that he is himself the greatest
sinner of all, but hopes that God in his great goodness will accept his efforts
for the conversion of gentiles. Oviedo, iii. 565-6, speaks of ovens filled with
human bodies frying in their fat and blood, to be used as food.

Chirinos was detailed with one detachment to reach Tonala by a differ
ent route and render Guzman assistance in case of need. Guzman, Carta, in,
Pacheco and Cardenas, Col. Doc., xiii. 370; Tello, in Hist. N. Gal, ii. 343,
and others imply that Chirinos was instructed to conquer the northern regions,
joining the main army at Tepic; but probably the division of the army was
not effected till later. On the march from Cuitzeo to Tonala the friendly
Indians were kept in chains, or under strong guard, by order of Guzman;
to prevent them from escaping or abandoning the baggage. Guzman, 4 a R^*

Tonala, as distinct from the operations of the main army, exploring part of
Aguascalientes and extending as far as Jerez in northern Zacatecas. Accord
ing to these authorities the main army remained south of the river, waiting
at Aztatlan until joined by Onate s force, thence proceeding to Tepic, where
was Chirinos division. Gil even makes Guzman in his march from Aztatlan
to Tepic pass as far south as Mascota. But all these statements are indefinite
and contradictory to those of Guzman and others, who agree that the main
army crossed the river and marched by way of Nachistlan to Teul. None of
the latter speaks of any independent branch expedition, but Ofiate or Chiri
nos are repeatedly mentioned as having been sent forward to reconnoitre.
Oviedo, Herrera, and Salazar agree with this version, at least with that which
refers to Guzman s march in person through Nochistlan. See Tello, Hist. N.
Gal, 343-7, and others, ubi sup.
33
There is much doubt about the locality of the grand Teul. No extensive
ruins so far as I know have been discovered in the region of the pueblo which
now bears that name. For a description of the aboriginal remains in this
region, see Native Races, iv. 578-93, this series. Guzman calls Teul, Teblichan,
and also Teul or Tonauipan.
34
The country was so rugged that of the 17 days employed they could
travel only three days on horseback. Guzman, Carta, 383. Tello, Hist. N. Gal.,
343-5, compares this crossing the sierra to Hannibal s crossing the Alps. The
as
Tepic natives thought the Spaniards must be birds, regarding the route
coast
impassable to -men. Ramirez, Proceso, 207-8, thinks Chirinos reached the
north of the Rio Grande and returned southward to Tepic.

for three days, and was then only two leagues distant.
Notwithstanding the lateness of the hour they imme
diately joined him. Guzman remained at Tepic about
three weeks to refresh the horses and to await reen-
forcements from Mexico. In the mean time parties
were sent out in different directions to receive the sub
mission of the native chieftains and to gather supplies
for the army. There was no organized opposition here,
though the general feeling in the province was hostile,
as indeed it could not long fail to be under the treatment
of Guzman s raiders, and as the commander really
wished it to be, so that the conquest might not seem too
easy, and that an excuse for plunder might not be
wanting. The caciques of Jalisco declined the honor
of becoming vassals of Spain, and all the efforts of
three or four embassies to persuade them were in vain ;
35
The author of the 40, Ret Andn., 469, asserts that Jalisco had peacefully
submitted, but rebelled when an excessive tribute was imposed, in consequence
of which Guzman burned the town.

Mantanchel, or Port of Jalisco, it was known for many years. Map-makers

Greater Spain was bestowed with a view to eclipse the glory of Cortes as the
conqueror of New Spain. Mota Padilla, Conq. N. Gal., 23, etc., says that
Guzman gave this name at the first crossing of the river on the Michoacan,
border. Ramirez, Proceso, 208-11, strangely confused in this part of Guz
man s trip, identifies this Rio Espiritu Santo with the Rio de las Canas instead
of the Santiago cle Tololotlan. The crossing was probably not far from
Santiago Ixcuintla. For account of ancient remains on this river, see Native
7i act> , iv. 575, this series.

49
Seven or eight Spaniards, 10 or 12 horses, each worth about 400 pesos
de minas, and hundreds of native allies, all of whom were probably valued
less than a single horse, were killed, while a large part of all the forces and
about 50 horses were wounded more or less seriously. Guzman tells us that
several of the Indian allies were killed by the lance -thrusts of the Spaniards,
the struggle being so close it was impossible to distinguish them from the foe.
Oviedo represents the force of the enemy at 12,000, that of the killed as
5,000, and says all the Spaniards were wounded. Tello, Hist. N. Gal, 347 et
seq., and Beaumont, Cr6n. Mich., iii. 401, state
that the entry into this province
was without resistance, and minutely describe the ceremonies and attentions
at the reception.
41
The author of the 3a Rel An6n., 446, calls the place Atecomatlan.
The small stream between the Tololotlan and San Pedro could hardly
42
have been called a large river by Guzman and others, who imply that the
Trinidad was the first large stream north of the Tololotlan.

46
It was certainly on either the Acaponeta or the Rio de las Canas, the
present boundary between Jalisco and Sinaloa. The two streams are not
over 10 miles apart at their mouths. The 3a Rel. Andii., 446-7, makes the
distance from Omitlan 10 leagues, and adds that when the army had forded
the stream and were pursuing the foe they came to a larger river, which
stopped the pursuit. It is clear that no such stream could have been found
near the Canas and north of it. The la Rel. An6n., 288-9, makes the dis
tance 10 or 12 leagues from Espiritu Santo River. The statements are not
definite enough for exact location in a country like this, where there are
several streams, each with branches, to say nothing of possible changes within
three centuries. The name Aztatlan applied in later times to a town on the
Acaponeta, is considered by Ramirez, Proceso, 208-11, as worthy of notice in.

back. It was sad for him to see his men perish, not
because of the men, but because of himself. Even
now if he would continue his expedition he must have
reinforcements. The maestre de campo, Gonzalo de
Lopez, was therefore sent to Michoacan and the Avalos
provinces for Tarascan warriors and carriers, together
with hogs and other supplies. 51
At length Guzman became convinced that he must
remove from that spot if he would not see the
whole army perish, for disease was daily thinning his
number. A
division under Lope de Samaniego was
sent northward to Chametla, where they met with a
friendly reception, and brought back fowl and fish.
As they gave a good account of the place Guzman
resolved to remove thither, sending first Verdugo and
Proano with a small force to prepare quarters, a task
which they easily accomplished, aided by the friendly
natives. At the same time, that is, at the end of
November or beginning of December, Garcia del Pilar
was sent southward to hasten the return of Lopez,
who had been absent about forty -five days. He found
52
the worthy maestre at Ahuacatlan faithfully engaged
53
in branding slaves, for the northern market. On
50
Another Spaniard was saved from the gibbet only on account of influen
tial intercession; others charged with attempts at flight were kept prisoners.
Tello and Mota Padilla, followed by Navarrete, says it was the captain
51
Juan Sanchez de Olea who was sent to Mexico for aid. According to Tello
he returned in two months with 6,000 carriers and supplies. Mota Padilla
estimates the number at 3,500. Lopez, in Pacheco and Cardenas, Col. Doc.,
xiv. 437-8, and the author of the 3 a. Ed. An6n., 447, add, that a commission
was given by Guzman to enslave and punish the natives of the Jalisco dis
trict for having attacked a convoy of provisions sent from Michoacan, killing
some of the men.
52
Oviedo informs us that Lopez served under Guzman with 10 horsemen
at his own expense; and unlike most of his companions he came back as poor
as he started !

-view to save him from the indignity of arrest in his own provinces. Hist.
Verdad., 231. But this is doubtful.
The original authorities which I have consulted on Guzman s expedition are
as follows: Relatione di Nvnno di Gvsman, in Ramusio, iii. 331-9. This is a,
letter of Guzman dated Omitlan, July 8, 1530, directed to the emperor, and giv
ing a detailed account of progress down to the date. The Spanish original has.
been published in Pacheco and Cardenas, Col. Doc., xiii. 356-93, and a very
impefect condensation in English may be found in Purchas, His Pilgrimes, iv.
1556-9. The writer admits only such outrages on the Indians as were mer
ited through disloyalty to the emperor or infidelity to the white man s God;
but in such cases speaks of his orders to hang and burn with a coolness that is
revolting. The narrative is marked by hypocritical expressions of submission,
to the divine and royal will, extreme even for that time. The Relaciones
An6nimas (la, 2a, 3a, and 4 a ) de la Jornada que hizo Nuiio de Guzman d la-
Nueva Galitia were written by eye-witnesses of the events described, includ
ing both friends and foes of the leader, were drawn out apparently by the
official investigation of Guzman s conduct, and are to be found only in Icaz
balceta, Col. Doc., ii. 288-306, 439-60, 461-83. The first and second seem to
have been written by the same person, whose name is unknown, as is that of
the writer of the third. Icazbalceta finds much reason to identify the author
of the fourth with Cristobal Flores. Similar to these narratives is the Rela-
cion of Gonzalo Lopez, in Pacheco and Cardenas, Col. Doc., xiii. 411-61; the
Relacion de Garcia del Pilar and the Relacion de la Conquista de los Teides
Chicliimecas by Juan de Samano, in Icazbalceta s Collection, ii. 249-87. Yet
the similarity between the statements of Lopez and Samano, as also between
those given by Pilar and the author of the ^a Rel. Anon., implies that they
were not made quite independently. The testimony of Lopez may claim, as
to facts, perhaps more reliability than the other when we consider that dur
ing the last part of Guzman s campaign he held the position of a maestre de
campo. Pilar was a young interpreter of Nahua dialects, and one of the
original conquistadores, but not of good repute, if we may credit Bishop
Zumarraga s allusions to his maquinaciones diabdlicas and to his unfortunate
escapes from being hanged. Ternaux-Compans, Voy., serie ii. torn. v. 26.
He was a willing tool of Guzman during the campaign, but a bitter foe after
ward, showing all his leader s acts in their worst light, and relieving himself
of all complicity by throwing the blame on the other interpreter, Juan Pas-
cual. In addition to this narrative, Pilar s testimony taken at Guzman s
trial is published by Ramirez and Beaumont, whose works are noticed below.
Juan de Samano was one of Guzman s captains, and afterward held a high
position in Mexico.
Of the early chroniclers who claim or may be supposed to have had access
to original sources of information, are Oviedo, Hist. Gen., iii. 561-77, who*
consulted several members of the expedition, especially Francisco de Arzeo;
Padre Tello, Hist, de la N. Galicia, written about 1650 by a Franciscan who*
had spent over 50 years of his life in the country of which he writes, but
whose work, or such portions of it as have been preserved, is valuable rather
for information on aboriginal manners and customs than as an historical narra
tive; Herrera, dec. iv. lib. vii. cap. viii.
