Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Genesis of the United States, Vol. 2 of 2: A Narrative of the Movement in England, 1605-1616, Which Resulted in the Plantation of North America by Englishmen, Disclosing the Contest Between England and Spain for the Possession of the Soil Now Occupied by the United States of America; Set Forth Thr Copy of two extracts from a letter of the King of Spain to Bon Alonso de Velasco, dated El Pardo, November 15, 1611. "For Don Alonso de Velasco. "A caravela having sailed under orders from the Governor of the Havana in search of a ship, which left the Port of Cartagena of the Indies with some artillery, which there was taken out of a galleon, which stranded on the coast of Buenos Ayres - and having passed along the coast of ´la Florida´ on this errand - and three men, in good faith, going on shore from the same caravela, called Diego de Molino, Marco Antonio Perez and Master Antonio, some Englishmen took them prisoners, who say that under orders from the King of Great Britain they have made a settlement on a part of that coast, which they call Virginia. Of which I have desired to have you informed and instructed, as I do herewith; that you will inform the said king of my just resentment at this imprisonment of these men, and that it will be best to give orders by the shortest way that from there may be accessible, so that they be set at liberty, without any further injury being done them, in order that they may return and carry out the commission entrusted to them by the Governor of the Havana. You will report to me at once what steps you have taken and what may result from them." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
