I do not write him as he will learn everything from you, and also because my illness prevents it. "Done in Seville, November 21. "Your father who loves you more than himself. .S. .S.A.S. XMY Xpo FERENS." "I wrote again to their Highnesses entreating them to order that these people who went with me should be paid, because they are poor and it is three years since they left their homes.
There are men on this ship who could tell you stories that would make your blood run cold take my word for it. There's a lot of things goin' on that oughtn't to be goin' on. The time has come for reform. Have a look at this paper, and tell me what you think." Dyck looked at the pockmarked face of Ferens, whose record in the courts was a bad one, and what he saw did not disgust him.
If Jeronimo de Santi Esteban is coming, he must await me and not embarrass himself with anything, for they will take away from him all they can and silently leave him. Let him come here and the King and the Queen will receive him until I come. May our Lord have you in His holy keeping. "Done at Seville, March 21, 1502. "At your command. .S. .S.A.S. Xpo FERENS."
.S. .S.A.S. XMY Xpo FERENS." Letter written by CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS to his Son, DON DIEGO, December 21, 1504. "VERY DEAR SON, The Lord Adelantado and your brother and Carbajal left here sixteen days ago to go to the Court. They have not written me since. Don Ferdinand carried 150 ducats. He must spend what is necessary, and he carries a letter, that the merchants may furnish you with money.
He's a big enough friend of the sailor to waste no time before doing his turn." Ferens shook his head morosely. "That may be," he said; "but the petitions were sent weeks ago, and there's no sign from Lord Howe. He was at Bath for gout. My idea is he referred them to the admiral commanding at Portsmouth, and was told that behind the whole thing is conspiracy French socialism and English politics.
I do not write him as he will learn everything from you, and also because my illness prevents it. "Done in Seville, November 21. "Your father who loves you more than himself. .S. .S.A.S. XMY Xpo FERENS." "I wrote again to their Highnesses entreating them to order that these people who went with me should be paid, because they are poor and it is three years since they left their homes.
His attitude was not that of the commander who declared: "I will see the man's backbone, by God!" He wished to secure discipline without cruelty. His greatest difficulty, at the start, was in making lieutenants. That he overcame by appointing senior midshipmen before the Ariadne was out of the Channel. He offered a lieutenancy to Ferens, who had the courage to decline it.
If the pardon is granted, it is well, and if not, look for some other manner of obtaining it. May our Lord have you in His Holy keeping. Done in Seville, February 25, 1505. I wrote you and sent it by Amerigo Vespucci. See that he sends you the letter unless you have already received it. "Your father. Xpo FERENS.//"
"The High-Admiral of the Ocean-Sea and Viceroy and Governor-General of the islands and mainland of Asia and the Indies, belonging to the King and Queen, my Lords, and the Captain-General of the Sea, and a Member of their Council. .S. .S.A.S. X M Y Xpo FERENS."
Ferens replied in a low voice: "Our men are goin' to send out petitions to the Admiralty and to the House of Commons." "Why don't you try Lord Howe?" "He's not in command of a fleet now. Besides, petitions have been sent him, and he's taken no notice." "Howe? No notice the best admiral we ever had! I don't believe it," declared Dyck savagely. "Why, the whole navy believes in Howe.
