Jago de Cuba, commanded by a Portuguese, Manuel Rivero Pardal, landed men on the north side of the island, burnt some houses and carried off a number of the inhabitants as prisoners.
Mention of the name of Orozco at once brought the much-sought-after bandit downstairs, and as he entered the little sitting-room Rivero covered him instantly with his automatic pistol, shouting to him authoritatively in Spanish. The notorious bandit staggered, so completely was he taken aback. "You know me, Sanz!" exclaimed Rivero. "You are under arrest.
Would he ask the concierge there privately on the telephone? The man in uniform at once rang up the Luxembourg, and addressing the concierge as his "dear Henri," made the inquiry. The reply was that Monsieur Rabel was expected at noon. "Ask if a gentleman is expected who has engaged a private sitting-room," Rivero said.
I told them how I had covered him with my automatic pistol, and how afterwards we had laughed together at our mental fear of each other. Señor Rivero, the bald-headed, black-bearded chief of the branch of criminal investigation, suddenly stopped me when I mentioned the scar upon the neck of the advocate from Burgos. "Did you notice that there was any deformity of his hands?" he asked quickly.
I tore it open and found it had been dispatched from Castelsarrasin, and was from Rivero, saying: "Absence unavoidable. Hope to be back by midnight." "Where is Castelsarrasin?"

Having installed ourselves in the hotel, Rivero went to the concierge, and taking him into his confidence over a twenty-franc note, told him that he was very anxious to know whether a gentleman named Rabel had arrived at the Luxembourg.
To my amazement Señor Rivero heard me unmoved. "I was awaiting you," he said. "The man you have been watching is not Despujol at all. Despujol, whom I recognized, passed out a few moments ago and took a cab to his house in the Rue de Lalande." "Then you have seen him!" I gasped. "Yes. It is Rodriquez Despujol, without a doubt, Monsieur Garfield.
It was founded by Felipe de Beaumont in 1616, with the appellation San Felipe de Arecibo. Fajardo. Governor Bravo de Rivero, with a view to found a settlement on the east coast, detached a number of soldiers from their regiment and gave to them and some other people a caballeria of land each, in the district watered by the river Fajardo.
It may be naturally asked, where did these numerous animals live? When at Lima, I saw a tooth of a Mastodon in the possession of Don M. Rivero, found at Playa Chica on the Maranon, near the Guallaga.
More than once Rivero seemed anxious to secure the arrest of Mateo Sanz, but I constantly urged him to remain patient. He frequently begged me to reveal the true extent of my knowledge, but I always evaded his questions because I was not yet in a position to make a triumphant coup, and avenge poor Gabrielle. Daily, hourly indeed, was she in my thoughts.
