The plot itself is of the simplest, and resembles that of the Amaranta. Through the sovereign will of Venus and Cupid, Silvia and Panfilo love.
Hernando de Soto landed first at Tampa Bay in Florida, and after a short excursion into the country, wintered at Ana-ica Apalache, an Indian town on Apalachee Bay, the same at which Panfilo de Narvaez had beaten his spurs into nails to make the boats in which he and most of his men perished.
Panfilo, it seemed, had encountered his companion purely by chance, and was horrified now to learn that his newly made friend was wanted by the authorities. In the midst of his incoherent protestations Mrs. Austin appeared. "He is telling you the truth, Mr. Law," she said, quietly. "He is one of my men." Both Mexicans looked blank.
He had his six-shooter and he used it; he had the darkness and the swiftest horse, too. He intended to ambush me and release his companion, but I forced his hand; so it ain't what I'd call murder. Now about myself: Panfilo isn't the first man I've killed, and he may not be the last, but I haven't lost any sleep over it, and I'd have killed him just as quick if I hadn't been an officer.
We saw Panfilo Narvaez put in at Tampa Bay, full of zeal and gold hunger, and a year later we saw him at Appalache, beating his stirrup irons into nails to make boats to carry him back to Havana. We alone know why he never reached there." The Pelican by this time had got rid of her load of fish and settled herself for conversation.
Laws don't work alike in all places; they depend a good deal upon geography. There are times when the theft of a crust of bread would warrant the punishment I gave Panfilo. I can't help but feel that his conduct, under the circumstances, called for what he got. He wasn't a good man, in spite of what José says; Anto confessed to me that they were planning all sorts of deviltry together."
"Nicolas Anto, eh?" said he, "Who was his companero?" "Panfilo Sanchez." Ed started. "That's strange! They must have met accidentally." "So they both declared. Why did you let Panfilo go?" "We didn't need him here, and he was too good a man to lose, so " Ed found his wife's eyes fixed upon him, and dropped his own. "I knew you were short-handed at La Feria."
He felt Alaire's eyes upon him, and they were eloquent of inquiry, but he did not meet them. José frowned. "No one at La Feria has seen him, and in Pueblo there was not a word. It is strange." "Panfilo was in bad company when I saw him." Law finished rolling his cigarette and lit it, still conscious of Alaire's questioning gaze. "He may have had trouble."
How often, when warmed with love and wine, did we tell tales, in the presence of our dearest friends, of Fiammetta and Panfilo, feigning that they were Greeks of the days of old, I at one time, he at another; and the tales were all of ourselves; how we were first caught in the snares of Love, and of what tribulations we were long the victims, giving suitable names to the places and persons connected with the story!
All the forces were now landed, and marched about two leagues inland to a town belonging to the cacique Harrihiagua , who had fled to the mountains lest he should be called to account for his cruelty to the Spaniards who had been here formerly along with Panfilo de Narvaez.
