The names of the Captains who were
burned were Quetzalpopoca, the princi-
pal one, and one called Coatl and one
called Quiathiuitle, and the name of the
other do not recollect. and indeed their
names are of very little Importance.
This act of justice was soon known
throughout all the provinces of Mexico,
and it struck terror into them all so that
the towns on the coast where the soldiers
had been slain quickly returned to the
service of those we left in Villa Rica.

yuma to build church
in our own quarters. They replied that
they would ask their lord and our Captain
then sent Dona Marina and Geronimo de
Aguilar to speak tor us. and presently we
obtained permission and he sent us brick
layers and masons and everything neces-
sary to complete it. In three days the
church and altar were built and holy
cross erected in front OF our quarters and
mass was said every day until the wine
gave out, and this was because Cortes and
the friar and other Captains had been
sick most of the time and had recourse
to it for their ailments. So thereafter we
went to church each day to pray both
because we we're Christians and in order
that Montezuma and his Caciques should
see us and thereby become inclined to ac-
cept our holy faith. While we had been
looking for the best place to put the altar
two of our soldiers, one Of whom was
carpenter named Alonzo Yanez saw in
one OF the walls place where door had
been closed up recently and as we had
heard that in this place was a room where
Montezuma had stored all the treasures
OF his father, Axayaca, we suspected that
this door led into it, and so Yanez, who
was sort Of servant OF Juan Velasquez
de Leon and Francisco Lugo, who were
both Captains and indeed relatives of my
own, told them of it and they told Cortes
and he caused the door to be secretly
opened, and then, with certain Captains,
he entered. They found the room full of
treasure-plates and bars of gold and sill
yer and ornaments of the same. and pearls
and precious stones, and feather work
and richly embroidered mantles. And
afterwards we all went in secretly and
too saw this. And as at that time | was
young, was astonished at the sight OF
this treasure, and thought that in all
the world there was not SO much. 1t was
determined that we should not touch
anything in the chamber, but that we
should close up the door and leave it in
the manner we found it. SO that the Mexi-
cans should not know we had entered.
Cortes now called a secret council of
four Captains and twelve soldiers
whom he could trust and with whom he
consulted, and 1 was one of them. And
we said to him that he must now con-
slider the dangerous position in which we
were placed; to look at what strong
fortress the city was with it's causeways
full of bridges, which could easily be
broken, and to recollect the many warn
ings we had received in the towns through
which we passed that Huitzlipotzli. the
war god had advised Montezuma
to allow us to enter and that
tuen he could slay US all; and that he
must remember that the hearts of men
are changeble things, especially those of
Indians; and that we could not afford to
trust in the good faith of Montezuma be-
cause he changed from one hour to an.

Attorneys for plaintiff contended the

MED its legality. The case involves the

ward, who defeated w. Thackeray, a for
mer alderman of that ward. Mr.. Doyle
is also railroad man and was supported

GRAND JURYS REPORT
Nothing Of q Startling Nature DiYulsed
By the Investigation.
THE TREAsURER'S NEGLECT
As q Whole the Awards Made BY
the Commissioners Meet APP
provai-The Chinook Pa
per Recognized.

GREAT FALLS, April ia special to
this Office from Fort Benton says: Fol-
lowing IL the report. just made public, of
the Choteau county grand jury, which has
been in session for the past week:
ITO Hon. Dudley DuBose, judge of the
Tenth judicial district, in and for Choteau
county, state of Montana The grand
jurors called for April 2, 1895, have, in
following out your instruction., invests
gated all charges known to W or brought
before our notice.
"whils investigating the county treas
urer, we find that he has been negligent
in some Of his duties, in that he did not
check up with the county clerk on the
23d Of February. which IL required by
law. It has also como to our notice that
the county treasurer has not made ain.
davits to his quarterly reports a. re-
quired by law.
I'm looking over the county commits
sioners' proceedings, we, find they have
been in the habit of receiving reports
without being sworn to, and allowing bills
without knowing them to be correct ac-
cording tocontract.
1--WE also examined the bids Of the Milk
river bridge and find that the commission
ers have done the best for the tax payers,
according to the evidence brought before
us; and also do approve of the board
awarding the public printing of Choteau
county to the Chinook Opinion. We be-
lieve that their action by so doing has
saved or will save great expense to Cho-
teau county.
I'VE also approve of the county COM
missioners awarding the contract of plat
ting county roads to c. H. Boyle.
"By examining the county commission
ers' proceedings, the minutes show that a
great many extra sessions have been held,
and we recommend that longer hours and
more faithful labor shall be performed.
ut is our opinion that the several
county Offices in Choteau county are con-
Quoted rather extravagantly in regard to
deputies. We have examined the books
of the several county officers and we find
them to be kept in a neat and scholarly
condition; we also find that the founda-
ton of the court house is in a bad condi-
ton and that the roof of the same needs
repairing; we have examined the county
Jail and advise that the county commits
sioners take immediate steps to repair
the cell in the southwest corner, formerly
known as the ladies' cell; that they shall
place therein an iron cage so that the
sheriff will be able to separate the prison
ers held for trial.
ION examination we find that the
county poor, sick and infirm are well
cared for; we have inquired into all public
offenses committed or triable within lthis
jurisdiction of this court, and in the
county of Choteau, and have found not a
case in our judgement for which an idiot
ment ought to be presented; all of which
is respectfully submitted, this 9th day
of April A. D., 1896.
