Dade, pressing his hand upon Valencia's shoulder, led him back into the dancing shadows that lay between the fires. "Let it go," he urged. "Don José holds the medal, and he's entitled to the glory.
Notwithstanding all these cares, Pacheco used to make nightly invasions into the island of Repelim, where he burnt the towns, slew the inhabitants, and carried away much cattle and many paraws; on which account the Moors of Cochin, astonished that he could endure so much fatigue, gave out that he was the devil.
Miguel sadly leaves the church. Over a white stone on the sward his foot pauses. There rests one of his best friends Padre Pacheco passed beyond these earthly troubles to eternal rest and peace. The mandate of persecution can never drive away that dead shepherd. He rests with his flock around him. Hijar seized upon the acres of the Church. He came down like the feudal barons in England.

Ah, Señor " "Ah, Valencia, why not scatter some of your enthusiasm over the other camp-fires?" Dade broke in quizzically.
"Five hundred are on their way down from the interior, it having been intended to send them home in the galleon, but I have not heard that they have yet arrived." "If they had arrived, do you think you would have heard of it?" demanded Bascomb. "I might, senor; but, on the other hand, I might not," answered Pacheco.
When Pacheco approached the harbour he was surrounded by a great number of boats, and some of the people began to suspect treachery, but so strongly did the spirit of delusion prevail in this business that they could not persuade the captain to put himself on his guard. He soon had reason to repent his credulity.
"Now, gentles," said Bascomb, "you have heard what Senor Pacheco has said about the troops, and if it be truth as I doubt not it is it behoves us to be careful how we thrust our noses into that city of Cartagena yonder.
