trary to his expectations, he was we'll re-
ceived by the sovereigns.
1t was not until the 30th day of May,
1888, that Columbus sailed from the port of
san Lucar de Bar ,ameda, with a squadron
of six vessels, on his third voyage of dis
coyerY. After his departure intrigues de-
veloped agains: him in the court of Spain.
Every vessel that arrived from the New
World brought complaints against the ad-
miral, it being even claimed that he de-
signed to cast off his allegiance to Spain
and make himself sovereign OF the coun-
tries he had discovered.
At his juncture, the sovorei9ns APP
pointed Don Francisco Bobadilla, n COM
missioner, to visit San Domingo, iuvesti-
gate the charges aud under certain condi-
tions to take charge Of affairs. Upon his
arrival Bobadilla assumed authority and
acted in a very high handed manner.
Columbus was at Fort Conception i'll the
Vega when he heard of this, and soon set
out for San Domingo.
When he heard that Columbus was on his
way to San Domingo. Bobadilla called ont
all the troops and made great preparations
for defense, pretending to believe that
Columbus would provoke a sedition and
call on the c~aciques of the Vega and their
~vassals to aid him in resisting the orders OF
the Q; own. Having, rs a measure of safety,
arrested the psaceiul Don Diego, brother of
Columbus, he loaded him with chains and
confined him on board Of one OF the cara
wells. As there WAS no ground whatever fol-
his suspicion. il is clear that his object in
oil this was merely to give a pretext for the
violence and insuls he meditated.
In the meantime Columbus had proceeded
towards San Domingo without guards and
Attendants. and although he was aware OF
the hostile intentions of Bobadills. and his
threats of violence. he decided to appear
in San Domingo In that modest manner, tc
show his pacific feeling, or. at least. to re-
move suspicion.
As soon a. Bobadiila was informed OF hi
arrival, he ordered him to DO put in irons
md confined IN the fort. This outrage OF
u man SO venerable and OF such eminent
merit, seemed atrooious even to HIS enemies
The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1892-10-21

and when the irons were brought every one
drew back in horror at tho idea of having
to put them on him. Bat one was found
willing to perform the odious task, and to
increase the aRed admiraps grief, 1t was
ono Of his own domsstics, u wretch named
Uspinosa. TO refute tho oft repeated
statement that Columbus treated the ma
tivea in n cruel manner, ii may DO noted
that an Indian primes and his devoted wife
remained with and sustained tho admiral
In this most trying hour.
Columbus WAS sent home in chains.
Upon his arrival in Spain he made suoh a
clear defense that the aoversigna were con-
WINGED of his innocence. and he was kindly
received. On this 9th Of May, 1902. Colum-
bus sailed from Cadi on his fourth and

| at heart and shattet ed in body.
On tho 10Th of May, lbOG, the admiral
himself perceived his hour approaching,
and calm and tranquil, with tho faith and
resignation of the righteous, he prepared
for the great passage. After scrupulously
fulfilling all the obligations Of loyalty, nj
lection and justice, he turned all his
tnonpHts 10 heaven, ana ASKING, Oh NIB own
accord, for tho consultations Of religion,
with the calm resignation of a saint, he
awaited his end. His Inst words were those
of Christ expiring on the cross: Into thy
hands, o Lord. / commend my spirit
He died May 70, the feast of the Ascension,
1906. at the age of about seventy years.
The oblivion with which the malice o!
his enemies succeeded in surrounding hi
person was coon dispelled by the brilliant
splendor of his fame, to which time give
ever increasing strength and vigor. The

suffer thy holy name. by the work Of thy
humble servant, to be made known and pro-
claimed in this new part of tho world"
And, AZ a mark Of gratitude to the Provi-
dence which had guided him so far, he gave
o the first land that he discovered, the
lame of the redesmsr of the world, and
sailed it San Salvador.
For nearly three months Columbus
cruisod among tho islands, discovering
Cuba aud Hispaniola. On the oath of De-
cember he lost one OF his vessels ON the
ooaat Of tho latter island, and as supplies
were necessary he decided to set sail. Lesv-
Ing n garrison of thirty-nine mon under
command of Diego do Arana, he sailed for
Spain on the 9th day of January. The re-
tu,n voyage waa extremely rough and dan
gerous, but on the 10Th of February they
once more beheld the Old World.
After landing in Spain, Columbus pro-
oeeded to Barcelona, where the sovereignt
were holding their court. His journey

dia by sailing to the westward, and the
tram of events that providentiallv led to its
accomplishment. After struggling against
and overcoming difficulties that to an or
binary man would have seemed insur-
mountable. Columbus had now achieved
the highest honors and loaded with bsne-
tits the people of Spain and the entire
world. Bat the trials and diaappointments
that be had thus far encountered were not
great r than those which awaited him.
On the 25th of September, 1893, Columbus
sailed from the bay of Cadiz on his second
voyage of discovery. He found the Rarri-
son he had left scattered, many of them
having been killed by the Indians. From
this time forward the life of Columbus was
one of toll, trouble and disaster. In the
midst of quarrels and insurtections he con-
tinued his explorations. On the 10th OF
March, 1896. he again set sail for Europe.
Enemies had arisen against him. but con

Columbus was the first to land, and ms

three times. with tears OF joy, and returned
thanks to our Lord for the immense favor
granted to him. All the rest followed his
example, and for a few moments they were
too affected for words. In the Chronologi-
cal Tables of Father Claudio Clsmente,
there is a fern Of prayer said to have been
used by Columbus on this occasion, and
which Cortez, Balboa, and Pizarro after
wards used officially, by order of the king,
in taking possession of new lands. 1t is
this: ooh, Lord, eternal and almighty

found calm, it was three DAYS before he lost
sight of the islands. On the 7th of October
they had sailed $50 leagues, a distance at
which Columbus had computed that he
would encounter land. On the evening of
that day, he yielded to the solicitations of
the Pinzon brothers and altered his cou sc
to the southwest. There had been signs of
land on the seventh, but these vanished as
they proceeded. On the evening of the
third day on the new course the seamen of
the admiral's ship became clamorous and in
sisted on abandoning tho voyage. The

All the officers and the men followed his
example, seeking strength and courage in

all hearts with sorrow and anguish, for ii
seemed like the preparation for the last
