A.D. 1590. letter sent to Don Petro de Xibar one of his [ill. 559] Majesties privie Counsel of the West Indies, from Don Diego Mendez de Valdes Gover- nour of S. Juan de Puerto Rico the 20 of November 1590, touching the state of that Citie and Island. Received your honours letter the 20 of Februarie, whereby I received great con- tent, to heare that your honour is in good health. As touching the imprison- ment of our cousin Don Pedro de Valdes, it doeth grieve me to the very soule. I beseech Go...d to send him his libertie: and likewise the imprisonment of Diego Flores de Valdes grieveth me very much: I pray God to send good justice. The M. of the fielde Juan de Texela, and the M. workeman Juan Baptista Antonio arrived here in safetie, and have viewed this Citie with all the circuite round about and the situation as I have informed his majestie thereof. They have marked a place to build a strong Fort, whereat the countrey remaineth verv well contente. And it standeth in a good situation, and in a convenient place on a high mount which doeth lye upon the entering in of the Harbour, & so cutteth over to a point of land, leaving in the Fort as much space as wil containe 3000 persons, without joyning thereunto any part of the coast.
