fully he cruised about on the big
ocean, and dreamed Of a trip down
the western coast; when he was
awakened by the postman with
letter from the Governor curtlv
ordering him back to Antigua. In
stead of directing the Governor to
journey unto place appropriate
to such as he, Balboa returned.
He was met by his comrade in
arms, Francisco Pizarro, and ar
rested in the name of his Most
Gracious Majesty, on the charge Of
high treason. Balboa waived the
right Of being dubbed into insensi-
bility, and went along. 1t was
easy to see that everybody except
the Governor and the lawyer was
for him, and that he had but to
say the word and his enemies would
be lowered into the Gulf of Darien
with big sinkers tied round their
necks. But Balboa wouldn't say it.
The trial was conducted with
scrupulous regard for the best legal
procedure, and Balboa was con-
victed of high treason and sem
fenced to death. He knew that the
real crime was that Of being much
bigger man than the Governor.
But he had now spent seven hard
years in Panama, and his spirit
was broken. Even his Indian wife
had turned against him. With his
own spirit of loyalty strong within
him, he refused to lift a hand to
save his life.
