The country hasbeen so scandalized by what occurred in that of the fiscal, Don Juan deAlvarado, because of the violent demonstrations made by the governor infavor of the fiscal, that many witnesses of those who swore, came to meto ask me not to take Don Juan de Silva's residencia, because there wasnot one man who would tell anything that he knew when summoned. Some ofthe witnesses they tried to kill at night, and others fled the city, having been threatened, it is said, by order of the governor..., afterthe charges against the fiscal were published, until which time he andthe governor thought that there could be no witness who would dare [sayanything]. On that account the demonstrations that arose were greater, and I was requested, considering the condition of the affairs of thecountry and the many objects of the governor, to do the same in theresidencia of Don Juan de Silva. [This was desired] on account notonly of the many connections that it must necessarily have with manycases related to it, with which he has had connection during the timewhile he has been here; but of other private persons, his friends, who are involved in the residencia, especially one Josephe de NavedaAlvarado, a relative of the fiscal, who was secretary to Don Juan deSilva, and also served him in other offices of great danger.
