Then he rose, and as he came out of the pew a newly-married couple passed him, the architect, Herrera, and Isabella Coello, radiant in beauty. Ulrich clenched his fist, and the thought passed through his mind, that he would cast away good-fortune, art and fame as carelessly as soap- bubbles, if he could be in Herrera's place. What fame is Ulrich was to learn!
Before the Adelantado could capture him, Roldan, followed by about seventy men, escaped to Xaragua in the western part of the island, where, as the Adelantado reported to his brother, they gave themselves over to violence, thievery, and massacre. The sketchy description of this notable rebellion here given may be completed by consulting Herrera, Dec.
The historian Herrera, after having said that the foundation of Antigua had preceded by one year that of Uraba or San Sebastian, affirms the contrary in the following chapter and in the Chronicle itself.
"Forward with your squadron!" shouted he, as soon as he came within earshot. The word was welcome to Herrera. "Left wheel! forward! gallop!" And, with the aide-de-camp at his side, he led his squadron along the road to Mendigorria, which intersects the hills whence the Carlists were now being driven.
The truth of this version is attested by Herrera and others. The reception which Bartholomew Columbus, who was appointed Deputy Governor in the absence of the Admiral, afterwards met with in his progress through the island to collect tribute from the several caciques manifested not only kindness and submission, but also munificence.
I shall forthwith explain to the general-in-chief my motives for taking possession of them." The officer received the pistols, examined them carefully, and returned them to Herrera. Baltasar looked on with a perplexed and uneasy air. Just then the brigadier, who was to command the column proceeding to Pampeluna, rode into the plaza. The drums beat, and the troops stood to their arms.
Liberate Herrera and Pablo Gonzalez!" he exclaimed, with sudden concentration of interest and attention. "Liberate is a boss knife-thrower, and I think likely he 's the one that did the business for old man Paxton. Look out for 'im, Nick!" The carriage came abreast of the two men and Tuttle jumped out, with Ellhorn close behind him.
The young lawyer himself had cried out twice, "Madame! madame!" in his horror, so much did he fear finding himself in the wrong. The Abbe Carlos Herrera, half fainting, sank on a chair in the guardroom. "Poor man!" said the Baroness. "Can he be a criminal?" The words, though spoken low to the young advocate, could be heard by all, for the silence of death reigned in that terrible guardroom.
"That is very fine!" said Esther, when she had repeated these two grand and universal utterances of the Catholic faith without making a mistake. "What is your name?" she asked the priest when he took leave of her. "Carlos Herrera; I am a Spaniard banished from my country." Esther took his hand and kissed it. She was no longer the courtesan; she was an angel rising after a fall.
And Carlos Herrera, by a pantomimic gesture, showed the suicide of a man throwing himself into the water; then he fixed on Lucien one of those steady, piercing looks by which the will of a strong man is injected, so to speak, into a weak one.
