ABSTRACT

When Alonzo de Alvarado had been taken prisoner, he was brought to the Adelantado. It was now daylight. Rodrigo Orgoñez, who was badly wounded by a stone, crossed by the bridge where the Adelantado was stationed. He had previously ordered Francisco de Chaves to go with one hundred men, mounted and on foot, to Cochacaxa, where Alonzo de Alvarado had his camp, and to collect all the men, and see that no one got away to take the news to Francisco Pizarro, arresting those who would not lay down their arms and become friends.
