PREFATORY NOTE

In the Report of the Librarian of Congress, for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1906, is tliis extract from tlie will of Woodbury Ijowery:

The late Woodbury Lowery, of Washington, D. C, scholarly investigator and his-
torian of the early Spanish settlements in this hemisphere, died in Sicily, April 11,
1906, lea\'ing in his will, dated the 5th of July, 1904, the following important bequest:

"I give, devise, and bequeath unto the Library of Congress, in the city of Wash-
ington, in the District of Columbia, my collection of Manuscripts, to wit:

"Eighteen (18) volumes (including the Indexes) of Copies of Manuscripts relating
to Florida, New Mexico, California, etc., bound with white parchment backs; Two
(2) volumes of original Manuscripts entitled: (l)'Manuscriptos historicos'; (2) 'Visitaa
de Presidios por Rubi etc'

"The anonymous original manuscript entitled: 'Descripcion Historica, Cronolo-
gica, etc., de la Florida.'

"My manuscript entitled; 'A Preliminary List of Maps of the Spanish Possessions
within the present Limits of the United States.'

"I also give, de\'ise and bequeath unto the same the following printed books and
maps, to wit:

"(1) 'Alonso de Molina, Vocabulario en la Lengua Castellana y Mexicana,' printed
in Mexico in 1555; (2) The Biblia Mariana; (3)'I1 Principe'of Machiavelli, printed at
Venice, 1550; (4) my collection of maps, with the condition that it be preserved
intact and be known as the Lowery Collection of Maps relating to the Spanish pos-
sessions within the present limits of the United States.

"I also give, devise, and bequeath unto the same the photographic negatives of
manuscript maps contained in two boxes marked 'Negatives of manuscript maps.'

"I also direct that the Librarian of Congress be allowed to select for the Library
of Congress, from among the following books in my library, such works as may not at
the time be in the possession of the Library of Congress, to wit:

"(1) Books relating to the history of Florida, Texas, New Mexico, California, and
Mexico; (2) books on palmistry; (3) books on Jewish historj-; (4) my Spanish books
generally."

In the Librarian's report for 1908 Mr. Worthington C. Ford, at
that time Cliief of the Manuscript Division, pays a willing tribute to
the testator and to that portion of the bequest of concern to his
Division, as follows:

Of quite another character are the transcripts and notes from Spanish sources
received under the will of the late Woodbury Lowery, of Washington, D. C. Mr.
Lowery spent many years in obtaining material for his history of the "Spanish Set-
tlements within the present Limits of the United States, 1513-1574." To natural
aptitude for such an undertaking he added special connections in Spain, which threw
open to him the pubUc and private collections of that countrj', and his use of original
material gave to hia volumes a coloring of permanent value. The eighteen volumes

of transcripts, notes and lists which constitute his bequest are an invaluable source
of information, a fit proof of his intelligently directed industry and of his historical
judgment. Ten of the volumes relate to Florida, five to New Mexico, and the balance
to miscellaneous matter on those territories and to California, Texas, and Louisiana.
His history was left in an \infuiished state, but this material is a partial compensation
to students in the same field.

There is no publishotl record of the life of Woodbury Lowery, but
we have been fortunate in receiving from his sister, the Duchess de
Arcos, this short sketch of tlie brother so closely- attached to her in
affection and Uterary companionship.

Woodbury Lowery was the only son of Archibald H. Lower}', of New York, of
Protestant Scotch-Irish descent, a man of the utmost integrity and cultivated tastes,
and of Frances A. Woodbury Lowery, daughter of Levi Woodbury of Portsmouth,
N. H., whose name is a.<!Sociated with posts of honor in his state and in the United
States government from 1816 to 1852.

The notes of the life of John Woodbury, a Pioneer, our direct ancestor on our Mother 'a
side, who came to America in 1624 from Devonshire, England, and settled on Cape
Ann, before the Puritans, apply three centuries later to his descendant, Woodbury
Lowery.

Honesty, uprightness, toleration, simplicity were joined to refinement and cultiva-
tion in a character to which egotism and selfishness were unknown. His mind was
analytic and healthy. His great love for nature and poetry and music, and his intensely
spiritual nature never biased his judgment. Although naturally serious he was also
most joyous and appreciative of wit and humor.

He spent several years of his boyhood in Europe with our parents learning German
and perfecting French, which he spoke almost perfectly. Later he studied Spanish
to facilitate his historical researches.

He graduated from Harvard University in 1875. While there he belonged to several
college societies, the "Hasty Pudding" among others, and was one of the editors of
"The Magenta." He took a postgraduate course in Chemistry, receiving a degree
of A.M. in 1876.

In order to remain with our parents in Washington, he then studied law at the Co-
lumbian University, receiving the degrees of LL. B. and LL. M. Hi^ was admitted to
the District Bar and to that of the Supreme Court of the United States, after which he
practised law until 1897. During that time he edited or published: Myer's Federal
Decisions, Vol. 27, on Patents; Lowery "s Supreme Court Patent Records, Volumes 4-20
of Brodix's American and English Patent Ca.ses; Lowery 's Annotated Interference
Rules, and Lowery 's Index Digest of the United States Supreme Court Patent Cases.
Also a number of arti<-les (if which I have no notes.

To these somewhat dry and uninteresting publications he gave the same minute
and conscientious care as to the work he afterwards undertook and in which he
delighted. His tastes were literary, and greatly encouraged by our Mother, between
whom and her son there existed a particularly strong tie; also by our uncle Charles
Levi Woodbury, who led him into the study of different religions and sects all over
the world, developing his strong human sympathies with all sincere efforts to noble
living.

After discussing the subject \vith Mr. Woodbury, my brother began the historical
work which he hoped to continue through the 18th century. One of his objects was to
separate the political from the religious intentions of the early explorers of America.
In 1901 the first volume of " The Spanish Settlements within the Present Limits of the
United Stales, 1513-1501" was published. The \ery kindly and appreciative way
in which it was received helped my brother to continue with more ardor, and, our

PREFATORY NOTE V

home in Washington having been broken up, he went abroad to study his subject in
the archives of Mexico, Madrid. Seville, London, Paris, etc. Wherever his extended
travels led him, he hunted for maps and books that could throw light upon his work.
Russia, Italy, Belgium, as well as Spain, all furnished contributions; he was inde-
fatigable. Oh! the maps I have helped him index, admiring with him their beauti-
fully engraved medallions, and sympathizing with the joy of such rare findings!

The winter in Seville was a long delight. The hours spent in the noble "Archives
de Indias," the endless bundles of mss. unojjened for centuries, and full of all that
an historical heart longed for, the study of paleography in order to unravel their mys-
teries, the notes taken in the room adjoining the archives, at tables elbow to elbow
with barefooted joWal friars, always ready for an historical joke, and then the late
afternoons, watching the river and the beautiful lights and the ethereal Giralda,—
how he loved it and painted it and wrote to it, as to something alive!

Returning to Washington he published in 190.5 the second volume of the " Spanish
Settlements," embracing the history of Florida from 1562 to 1574. Many rev-iews of
this volume came to him during the last winter of his life in Rome, but he considered
them more kindly than critical and said he could not judge of the faults or merits of
his work until more authoritative and severe critics should have spoken. These criti-
cisms came, and were full of appreciation not only of his style, but of the painstaking,
conscientious manner of his work, its thoroughness and original research. The Nation
of March 15, 1906, says:

"Mr. Lowery has taken up his task, not only in a most dignified manner, but also
with a thoroughly practical sense, and with full consciou.sness of his obligation to be
impartial. Even where his always well fortified conclusions are at variance with
those of his predecessors, they are presented in an impersonal manner. Our author
quietly gives positive data, lea^^ng in doubt what he cannot prove in an irrefutable
manner, and courteously tolerating every dissenting opinion . . . He is absolutely free
from pedantr)', as well as from imaginative rashness. Some of his predecessors (Park-
man, for instance) foreshadowed all this, but in their time access was lacking to the
sources of information, the number and variety of which Mr. Lowery now places before
us. The same may be said in regard to their partisanship. Could they have known
more, their work, at least the work of some of them, would have .shown a different
spirit, for most of them were honest and sincere and painstaking men, imbued with
a desire to do historical justice. This is manifestly the way in which Mr. Lowery
looks at their productions ..." etc.

When I took these and other last articles to Taonnina hoping for the delight of
showing them to my brother, his Spirit had already left this world.

As he followed his path among the various Archives, he was charmed with their
unexplored richness and promised himself much research and writing at some future
day.

He came to Europe with me, expecting to return home in the autumn of 1906 to
resume work. He had a number of notes for several volumes, which unfortunately
are insufficient, unless more can be found among his papers, to enable another person
to continue his work.

His hope was that his efforts should help others who cared to follow in his footsteps,
and he desired to make accessible all sources from which he had profited. With this
object he has left his fine collection of maps and books relating to hLs accomplished
work to the Congressional Library, hoping they might there be most accessible to
students.

This is a poor outline of a Ufe good and perfect, of one who never had an enemy,
and who never committed a wrong action, who brought sunshine and concord wherever
he went, who was devotedly loved by his family and friends, and to whom old people
and children and lonely people turned.

VI PKEFATOEY NOTE

Towards himself he wag exacting and self-denying, but not towards others; he had
besides that spiritual tendency which seems to be inherited from his Puritan ancestry,
following a high moral code so difficult to practice in the midst of the world.

A devoted son, brother and friend, pure in heart and lofty in sentiment, his life waa
led in the light of the highest aspirations and has shed hope, faith and love on those
he has left.

I have much charming and varied manuscript of his, written only for amusement
and of course never published.

He had a strong sense of patriotism, and I have seen his eyes light up and seem to
burn over the events which caused our civil war.

The monograph describes 750 maps, of wliich there are 306 in the
Lowery collection of maps, 206 not in tlie collection but in the Map
Division of the Libiary, and 184 in neither one nor the other. While
this work was in preparation, efforts were made to secure photograpliic
reproductions from the originals in Paris, London, and elsewhere to
supply these omissions. Some have been received and mentioned,
while others will, no doubt, be obtained to increase the collection but
not in time to be described in this edition of the work.

The "Descriptive List" fills an important gap in describing the
maps relating to tlie Spanish settlements not only in the United States
but in Nortli America as a whole. Incidentally the most important
maps relating to the world, America, Mexico, and the separate
provinces of Sonora and Lower California are described, as they
more or less touch upon the main subject.

That the collection and descriptive text were incidentally to be
used in connection with Mr. Lowery's unfinished work entitled
" The Spanisli settlements within the present limits of the United
States," is evidenced in both. Combined, however, with the collec-
tion in the Library of Congress and additional information contained
in the notes, the most important material has been brought to
the attention of the student.

The Editor of this work had many conversations with Mr. Lowery on
the cartography of the region wliich he describes, and feels that his
point of view in regard to the publication has been substantially
followed.

Some differences in dates assigned to maps may be observed.
These, perhaps, may result from the fact that the dates given by Mr.
Lowery were based upon geographical information, while the Editor,
in identifying the source of the separate maps, has given in notes
the dates substantiated bibliographically.

The Editor has made but few changes in titles. He is responsible
for the arrangement, Mhich includes correct name of authors with
birth and death, for all the notes following titles, and for the author
list, title list, and general index. The titles are each numbered, and
the initials preceding indicate that the map described is in the
Lowery collection or in the collection of the Library of Congress, as

the case may be. Xiirabcrs witliout initials indicate tliat the maps
are not in either.

The title page selected by the Author is reproduced from Hendrik
Doncker's De Zee-atlas, 1660, a copy of which is in the Library of
Congress.

After this work had gone to press, the Editor's attention was brought
to a collection of manuscript maps, original and copied, by Johann
Georg Kohl, in the collection of the United States Coast and Geodetic
Survey,' wliich is so pertinent to the subject discussed and to its com-,
pleteness, that the titles are here copied:

The Stevenson reproduction is also described in title 1139 of Phillips' List of

The following is quoted from Nordenskiold's Facsimile-atlas, p. 63:
"More important in this respect is a map sent to Hercules d'Este, the Duke of
Ferrara, by Alberto Cantino, his ambassador in Lisbon, between the years
1501 and 1505. The original is at present in the Biblioteca Estense in Modena.
A facsimile has been published by Harrisse for his work Les Corte-Real et leuia
voyages au Xouveau Monde, Paris, 1883, where a minute analysis of the map is
given in Chapt. iv (p. 69-158) This map, or copies of it, has evidently been
used for the first printed maps of the New \\'orld. It is of special interest in
the cartography of the North, Greenland being represented on it with tolerable
exactness, although too far to the east. Probably Cantino here followed a map
of the Zamoiski type. But it seems, from a long legend on the east coast, that the
Portuguese had also penetrated as far as to the vicinity of Cape Farewell."
Also in his Periplus, p. 149-1-50:

" Cantino's map of the world. A large planisphere, drawn on parchment in gold
and colours (2,200 x 1,005 m) and signed: "Carta da nauigar per le Isole nouam"
tr[ouate] in le parte de 1' India: dono Alberto Cantino al S. Duca Hercole."
Cantino was an ambassador from Hercules d'Este, duke of Ferrara, to the King
of Portugal. From a letter of Cantino, dated Rome, Nov. 19th, 1502, we learn
that the map cost 12 ducats. In The discorerj of North America, p. 422-25,
Harrisse relates the \'icissitudes of this important document. It was at first
kept in the d'Estes Archives in Ferrara, then was taken to Modena, where it
was pasted on a screen. Finally it fell into the hands of a pork butcher, where

it was discovered by Signor Boni, who took charge of the ill-treated and some-
what tattered map and deposited it at the Biblioteca Estense. Ilarrisse has
reproduced, as a separate print of full size, that part embracing the New World
and, moreover, in the above-mentioned work (PI. vi and viri) gives repro-
ductions on a reduced scale of the New World and the south coast of Asia.
This reproduction shows that Cantino knew more of the Portuguese voyages of
discovery than most other map designers of the first half of the sixteenth
century."

note to title no. 2.

1503
Colombo, Bartolome.

Map. Lc 4

Note. — The following description of the map is from Nordenskiold's Periplus,
p. 178:

"Three sketch-maps which Fr. R. v. Wieser found as marginal drawings on a
copy of a letter from Columbus when in Jamaica, dated July 7th, 1503. This
copy is incorporated in a collection made by Alexander Strozzi of pamphlets
concerning the early voyages of discovery to America, now in Biblioteca nazio-
nale at Florence. These sketches Wieser thinks were derived from Bartholo-
maeus Columbus (Die Karte des Bartolomeo Colombo fiber die vierte Reise
des Admirals von Fr. R. v. Wieser, Innsbruck 1893; Mittheil. d. Institute f iir
osterr. Gesch.-forschupg) They are formed of careless pen and ink sketches,
which, however, cast a light on the opinion held by ('olumbus and his brothers
concerning the distribution of land around the Atlantic. The map of Southern
Asia is on the Ptolemaic pattern, with those modifications which the circum-
navigation of Africa entailed. 'Calicut ' and some other places known from the
Portuguese voyages are marked, but on a peninsula west of the Indus. The
inscription at the equator on the map of Africa ('secondo Marino e Colombo da
C. San Vicentio a Catticara g. 225, segondo ptolomeo infino a Cattigara g. 180')
reminds us of the great geographical problems of the 15th century, so differently
answered by different geographers."

For a description of the work in which these manuscript maps were found, see
Nordenskiold's Facsimile-atlas, p. 38.

The article of Wieser's which was originally published in the Mittheilungen
des Instituts fiir oesterr. geschichtsforschung, containing facsimiles of the three
supposed autograph maps of Bartholomew Columbu.s, was printed separately
with the title: Die karte des Bartolomeo Colombo iiber die vierte reise des Admirals,
14 pp., 3 pi., 12°. Innsbruck, 189J, a copy of which is in the Library of Congress.
L. Gallois in a review, Anrrnks de geographie, 1893-94, v. 3, Bibliographie, p. 60,
states :

"Lora de son quatrifeme voyage, Colomb suivit la c6te de I'Am^rique centrale,
explorant le fond du golfe du Mexique, pour trouver le passage qui devait le
conduire aux Indes. Suivant I'usage, il determina quelque.'^-unes des positions
de la cote et en dressa le portulan. II ^tait accompague de son plus jeune
frdre, Bartolomeo, que nous savons avoir 6t^ bon cartographe. D'apres ua
texte precis de Pierre Martyr, cette carte se trouvait en 1513 en possession de
Fonseca, et il est dit expressement que Bartolomeo y avail travaille. Lorsque

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 7

Colomb fut raort, Bartolomeo vint a Rome et fit des demarches auproa du pape.
II lui demaiida son appui pour determiner le roi d'Espagne a envoyer une
colonie sur lea cotes qu'il avait contribu^ a d^couvrir. II remettait en mgme
temps i son frfere Ilieronimo, chanoine de Saint-Jean de Latran, une relation
de son voyage avec une carte: 'Di sua mano uno disegnio de' litti di tal terre
dove eron descripte i lochi, la conditione et natura et costumi et abiti di quelli
popoli.' Fr^re Hieronimo donna plus tard la lettre et la ou les cartes a Strozzi,
dont la collection est aujourd'hui a la Bibliotheque Nationale de Florence.
Strozzi fit un extrait de la relation. Ce texte est connu des historiens de la
geographic. Mais le dessin signale paraissait etre perdu. M. Wieser, en exa-
minant le manuscrit qui contient le r<5sume de Strozzi, a trouve, inser^es au
milieu d'un autre document, trois petites cartes manuscrites qu'il n'hesite
pas a considerer, sinon comme I'oeuvTe de Bartolomeo lui-meme, du moins
comme directement inspireesde son dessin. La premiere hypothfese rencontre
une difficult^: le texte dit que la carte devait contenir des renseignements
sur les moeurs et les costumes des indigenes, et les petites cartes ne donnent pas
ces details. Mais, par leur nomenclature, par leur dessins elles correspondent
parfaitement au texte de Strozzi. II est done tout a fait legitime d'admettre
qu'elles sont directement inspirees de la carte de Colomb et de son Wre. Elles
ont ete faites surtout pour montrer que cette cote etait voisine de I'lnde; et
precisdment nous savons que Colomb, pendant ce quatrifeme voyage, croyait
s'etre approche a dix-neuf joum^es du Gange. Bien que trffl rapidement
ex^cuti^s, les croquis denotent encore chez leur auteiu- la preoccupation de
marquer les distances. Les longitudes et les latitudes y sont indiquees. Une
courte legende fait remarquer que revaluation de la longueur du degr^ n'est
pas la meme chez Marin de Tyr que chez Ptolemee, c'^tait encore une des
preoccupations de Colomb que cette evaluation de la longueur du degre, car,
suivant la mesure adoptee, les Indes devaient etre plus ou moins eloignees.
L'article de M. Wieser est ^crit avec cette meme concision et aussi cette con-
naissance approfondis des textes qui distinguent ses travaux ant^rieurs. Les
trois croquis sont donnes en fac-simile."

Wieser's monograph is also reviewed by Ruge in Petermanns mitteilungen,
1894, V. 40; GeograpUscher UteraturheTlcht fur 1894, pp. 143-144, title 560.

1507
Ruysch, Johann.

Universalior cognoti orbis Tabula. 55.5x40.5 cms., including
margin. lc 5

Note. — The Library of Congress has a copy of the Ptolemy of 1508, which is a
reissue of the 1507 edition, with a new title-page and the addition of the Ruysch
map: Vniversalior cogniti orbis tabvla, ex recentibvs conferta observationibvs.
See description of this atlas in Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 357.
The foOowing is partly from Xordenskiold's Facsimile-atlas, pp. 63-67:
"The maps are uncolored and some of the signatures differently placed, other-
wise there is no difference between the two editions. This edition is remark-
able for containing, with the exception of the Waldseemiiller map, the first
printed map showing any part of America. Johann Ruysch, a german, visited
America and is supposed to have first published his map in this edition
although there exist separate copies, showing no evidence of binding, which
may have been issued a short time pre\'ious. Nordenskiold, Facsimile-atlas,
p. 63, states: "This map was published among the tabulae novae in the edition
of Ptolemaeus Romae, 1508, and its engraving was hardly finished before that
year, as may be concluded from the following legend at Trapobane: Ad hanc

8 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

Ruysch, Johann — Continued.

Lusilani naute navigarunt anno sahitis mdvii. Sometimes it is also inserted
in the edition of 1507, without, however, being mentioned on the title page, on
which, according to the custom of the period, a synopsis of the contents of the
work ia given. But on the new title page, with which the edition of 1508
was provided, this passage is printed : In hoc opere haec continentur: . . . Nova
et universalior Orbis cogniti tabula loa Ruysch Gcrmano elaborata ..." p. 66.
" The text of Beneventanus is introduced by a letter to the roman patri-
cian Marianus Alterius, from which the remarkable information is obtained
that Ruysch's map was printed before it was incorporated with the Ptolemy
of 1508. At least this seems to be deducible from the . . . passage in Tosinus'
letter, from which we also find that Beneventanus only wrote commentaries
on the map and had nothing to do with its authorship . . ."
The separate (Harvard, Barlow) copies of this map, showing no signs of ever
having been bound, may support the above statement. There are two distinct
copies of this map, one of which does not contain the legend, "Plisacvs Sinvs"
off the eastern coast of Asia. This copy, unlike the Stevens, Santarem and Nor-
denskiold reproductions, does not contain the legend. Nordenskiold notes,
on the various copies examined by him, traces of successive corrections and
emendations, e. g., on the long legend identifying Hispaniola with Sipangu.
This map is sometimes found inserted in the 1507 edition. "The map of
Ruysch forms an epoch in the development of cartography. [In addition to
its american features] it is:

(1) The first printed map of the world on which the discoveries of the Portu-
guese along the coasts of Africa are laid down . . .

(2) First published in print on which India is drawn as a triangular peninsula
projecting from the south coast of Asia . . .

(3) First printed map on which the delineation of the interior and eastern
parts of Asia is no longer based exclusively on the material collected by Marinus
of Tyre and Ptolemy more than a millenium previously . . .

(4) First printed map on which, in conformity with the drawings on the porto-
lanos, a tolerably correct direction is given to the northern coast of Africa . . .

(5) First map published in print, which, following a correction made in the
portolanos since the beginning of the 14th century, leaves out that excessive
projection toward the east, which characterizes Ptolemy's map of the northern
part of Scotland . . .

(6) Greenland ia here for the first time drawn without being connected with
Europe by a vast polar continent. . . The legends on the map are ... of a
very high interest and form a more important contribution to the history of geog-
raphy than many a bulky volume . . ." The "Orbis noua descriptio" is an
extensive though not very important supplement consisting principally of a
commentary on the Ruysch map and accounts of discoveries in the new world.
A reproduction is numbered pi. 32, of Nordenskiold 's work above mentioned.
Title 28 of the Kohl Collection now in the Library of Congress, described by
Justin Winsor and edited by P. Lee Phillips, gives the following notice:

Xordenskiold gives a reproduction of this map in his Facsimile-atlas, p. 67,.
and states, p. 68:

"This map is rare. It has in vain been sought for in most copies of the very
rare work for which it was intended. This circumstance is believed to be due
to a suppression of the small drawing by the suspicious Spanish authorities.
Notwithstanding its size and insignificant exterior, the map is of interest as the
first printed Spanish map of some part of the New World, and perhaps also as
the first (?) map printed in Spain. It is far more correct than other contem-
porary maps of the West Indian islands, which is not astonishing, as Petrus
Martyr d'Anghiera was personally acquainted with several of the great dis-
coverers of the 15th and the beginning of the 16th century. For further biblio-

Note. — "A good representation of the geographical ideas prevailing in the
period immediately preceding Magellan's circumnavigation of the earth, is
further given by the globe-map, on a peculiar projection, found in a collection
of drawings of Leonardo da Vinci and critically examined, in his usual masterly
way, by R. H. Major (Memoir on a Mappemonde by Leonardo da Vinci, being
the earliest map hitherto known containing the name of America; now in the
Royal collection at Windsor, London, 1865) Major, who conjectures the date of
the map to be 1512-14 (Winsor considers it to be one or two years later) has tried
to prove that it was actually drawn by the great artist among whose papers it
was discovered. From this circumstance a certain interest is attached to this
insignificant sketch, which is in no wise distinguished by such accuracy and
mastery in drawing, as might be expected from a map attributed to the great
artist among whose papers it was found. It is, however, worthy of attention
from a cartographical point of view, not merely on account of the remarkable
projection, never before employed, but also because it is one of the first maps on
which a south-polar-conlinent is laid down. It is likewise, if not the first, at
least one of the first, mappemondes with the name America.

THE LOWERY COLLECTION H

"That the da Vinci map is not an original drawing, but a careful copy of a
globe, is ob\"ious from the way the inscriptions on the northern coast of South
America have been intersected without any reasonable cause, so that parts of
the names are written on one, parts on the other segment. This circumstance
seems likewise to make it probable, that the copy is not a work of Leonardo
himself, but by some ignorant though trustworthy clerk or copyist. For the
rest the map de\nates considerably from all other maps of the beginning of the
16th century, with regard as well to the inscriptions as to the outlines of the
continents. That this map is based on Portuguese and not on Spanish originals
appears to be deducible from the tolerably correct form of South Africa and
from the outlines of the Indian peninsulas, which are here delineated more cor-
rectly than on the maps of Ruysch, Sylvanus, Stobnicza, Bordone, and in all
editions of Ptolemy, before that of Ruscelli of 1548." Consult Nordenskiold,

Phillips, with the following note:

"A facsimile of the rare map belonging to Johaimes de Stobnicza's Litroductio in
Claudii Ptholomei Cosmographia, Cracovia, 1512. Kohl used the copy in the
Munich library. There are other copies now known, and for notes of these,
and other references, see Winsor's Bibliog. of Ptolemy's Geography, sub anno
1512. There are facsimiles of the map in whole or in part in the Carter-Brown
Catalogue, Narr. and Crit. Hist, of America, Hi, 13; and in Daly's Address on
early cartography, p. 32"

Nordenskiold in his Facsimile-atlas, pp. 68-69, states:

"This map, printed from a very rude and badly executed wood-cut, occurs in
a rare work, of which the complete title is: Introductio in Ptholomei Cosmogra-
phiam cum longitudinibus et latitudinibus regionum et civitatum celebriorum.
Epitoma Europe Bnee Silvii. Situs et distinctio parcium tocius Asie per
bracia Tauri montis ex Asia Pij secundi. Particularior Maioris asie descriptio

"The name of the author is given in a dedication, loanni dei gracia Episcopo
Posnaniensi. Beside the above cited edition there are two others, viz, Editio
princeps, for the most part identical with the preceding one, save the last leaf,
which is somewhat differently printed and without date; and an edition of
1519, in which the numerous printer's errors and the faulty and capricious
orthography of the previous editions are corrected.

" None of the many copies of these three editions, which I have examined in the
libraries of Scandinavia, Russia, and Poland, contained any map. But in the
Imperial library at Vienna there is a copy of the edition of 1512 with a map.
The Munich Library is also said to possess a copy of the same edition, with a
map. It is possible that the map has been excluded from the work, on account
of the rudeness of the wood-cut, or on account of its being contrary to the old
doctrines of the church. But that it was originally intended for the 'Intro-
ductio' is shown by the identity of the water-mark on the map with that on the
paper employed for the text. The fac-simile here given on pi. xxxiv is a
photolithographic copy of the original in Vienna. This map is, in spite of its
rudeness, of great interest and importance to the early history of cartography,
because:

" 1st. North and South America are here drawn, for the first time, as two large
continents connected by a long and narrow isthmus. It is the earliest printed
map on which the newly discovered lands in the Atlantic are in their whole
extent so separated from the Old World, that they may, with full reason, claim
the name of Novus Orbis.

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 13

"2d. Stobniza's map, published one year before the 25th of September, 1513,
when Vasco Nunez Balboa sighted the 'Mare del Sur ' from the mountains of
the Isthmus of Darien, is the earliest on which the spa between Europe and
Asia was di%'ided by the newly discovered continent into two almost equal
oceans, communicating only in the extreme south and the extreme north.
This complete breaking with the old theorj" of one single Ocean, surrounding
Europe, Asia, and Africa, may to a certain extent be explained by the fact
that coast-lines are here substituted for the large unfolded rolls with legends
which occupy the western coast of America on Ruysch's map. Several details,
however, seem to prove that Stobnicza, or the unknown author of the map in
his Introductio, had had access to geographical reports unknown to Ruysch.
The method here employed of indicating the western coast of America by a
succession of straight lines, in order to denote that the delineation was con-
jectural and not dependent on real observations, is worthy of note.
"3d. There is no place on the map for a full extension of the new continent
towards the south, but the coasts on both sides of its southern extremity are
drawn in such a manner, that a southern communication between the two
oceans evidently seems to have been admitted by the author.
" 4th. On Stobnicza's map the surface of the earth is, for the first time, di^•ided
into two hemispheres, each of which was laid down on the homeotor projection
of Ptolemy.

"The map is based on the map of the world in Ptolemaeus 1482 (the Mediter-
ranean Sea, northern Europe and southern Asia) on the map of Ruysch (Africa
and eastern Asia) and, as regards the West Indies, the Isthmus of Panama and
North America, on data not before reproduced in printed maps. This map
certainly has nothing in common with tabuLe novse of the world in the Ptolemy
of 1513. The inscriptions on Stobnicza's map are often difficult to decipher.
Those on the newly discovered lands alone have some interest. They appear
to be:

? de bona ventura.

Isabella.

Spagnolla.

Arcay.

Caput destado.

Gorffo Spemosa.

Caput S. Crucia.

Monte Stegoso.

AUa pego.

Terra incognita.
"At a considerable distance from the eastern coast of Africa two large islands are
drawn, the northern designated by the name of Mardagascar, the southern by
that of Zinzabar. The name of Madagascar is, though somewhat differently
spelt, already found in Marco Polo, but here it is for the first time shown on a
printed map. The name Menutias of Ptolemy is supposed to refer to this
island. It is called Camarocada by Ruysch (1508) Comorbina by Sylvanus
(1511) and Madagascar in Ptolemaeus 1513. When it was rediscovered in 1506
by Ant. Gongalves, on the day of St. Laurence, it received the name of San
Lorenzo, which, as far as I know, is first met with on a printed map on the heart-
shaped map of Orontius Finseus of 1531 (X. T. xu) and on the Mappemonde
in gores printed at Nuremberg in about 1540 (N. T. xl)

"The copy of the map given on PI. xxxjv is a carefully photolithographed fac-
simile. If the inscriptions are sometimes difficult to decipher and consist of
letters with indistinct outlines, this is the fault of the original, which, with all
its defects, is faithfully rendered by the copy."

Note. — A copy of the edition of Ptolemy containing this map is in the Library
of Congress and is described in title 359, of Phillips' List of Geographical
Atlases. The map first appeared in this edition and is one of the earliest printed
maps devoted entirely to the New World . In this edition isalso the map entitled :
Orftis Typvs Vniversalis, which is a new map of the world first appearing in this
edition. By some it is attributed to Columbus, hence the name "the Admiral's
mop," and by others to Vespuccius. Nordenskiold states that this map is evi-
dently of Portuguese origin and shows little advancement over the maps of
Ruysch, Sylvanus, and Stobnicza. For a complete description, see his Fac-
simile-atlas, pp. 69-70, where he explains the confusion existing among some
writers between these two maps, as follows: "There further occurs another
very common error, with respect to the new maps in this edition, namely, that
the map 2, with the inscription Haec terra cum adjacentibus insults inventa est
per Columbum lanuensem ex mandato regis Castellae, was connected with the
. above cited, erroneously interpreted passage in the preface . . . per Admiralem
Portugalix regis Ferdinandi, which map, accordingly, has been designated ' the
Admiral's map.'

" But the passage in question does not refer to the second but the first among the
tabulae novK (N. T. xxxv) on the second title-page termed Bydrographia sive
charta marini . . . More original and important is the second map enumerated
on the title-page, among ' Particulares tabulse Europie,' under the name of
Tahula Tcrrse Novx (N. T. xxxvi)"

A reproduction is found in the Kohl Collection, no. 32, where it is described by
Winsor as follows:

"This is the 'Tabula Terre nove' of this edition, and Kohl points out that the
names on the South American coast are carried no farther west than the extent
of the voyage of Hojeda in 1499, and no farther south than Vespucius went in
1503, while the connection, which is made between the northern and southern
continents, must have been based on reports, without particulars.
"This map, supposed to have been in some way connected with Columbus's own
charts, is often called 'the admiral's map,' and its connection with Cabial and
Vespucius has also been supposed. The maker of the map was Waldseemullcr
or Hylacomylus, and Lelewel (n, 143) gives reasons for believing that it had
been engraved and sold as early as 1507, having been made at the expense of
Duke Rene ii; but the plate does not seem to have been used in any book till
in this 1513 edition of Ptolemy. Lelewel supposes it to be in effect a Portu-
guese chart made in 1501-1504, and engraves it as such (pi. 43) and it is known
that La Cosa complained of the Portuguese frequenting the coast in 1503.
Facsimiles of the map are given in Vamhagen's Premier Voyage de Vcspurci;

one 70 x 83 cm. in size, including the New World, the other 58 x 83 cm. includ-
ing a part of China and the East Indies. The black band appearing on the left
of sheets 2 and 4 in the reproduction is not that of an original border, but of a
metal strip, which has been attached to prevent the creasing of the parchment.
Such a metal strip binds the border on the right of the sheets here reproduced
as 1 and 3. The map is in color and in a good state of preservation; most of the
names appearing can be easily read."

The Schoner globe. Diameter 86.6 cm.s. lc 16

Note. — "A globe by Schoner, draxun by hand, dated 1520, and preserved at the
town-library of Nuremberg. This large globe, of which the diameter is 0,"'866,
was described by Jlinr (Dipl. Gesch. Bchaims, 2d edit., p. 47) It is critically
examined and more or less completely copied by Lelewel, Ghillany, Hum-
boldt, Kohl (Discovay nf Maine, Portlaiid 1869, p. 15S) and others. Wiesek
has also, in his often cited work, given a detailed account of it. Unfortunately
the copies given, both by Ghillany and Wieser, only embrace the New Hemi-
sphere. However the discoveries in the old hemisphere, in the beginning of
the 16th centurj-, form an epoch of immense consequence to the development
of that part of the world, which during several thousands of years previous to
the discovery of the New World had been the centre of civilisation. It would
be of no slight interest to get an accessible representation of the ideas respecting
the distribution of land on the southern and eastern coasts of Asia which pre-
vailed immediately before Magellan's circumnavigation. This globe has an
advantage over those already mentioned, from its date being known. This
may be deduced partly from the year 1520 being written in large golden letters
at the South Polar-circle, and partly fi-om an inscription in the vicinity of
the South-Pole, stating the globe to have been made at the expense of Joannes
Seyler by Jo. Schoner quando salutiferi partus numeravimus annos mille et
quinquenlos et quatuor addita lustra." Consult 'S ordenskolA, Facsimile-atlas, p. SO.

vniversalis belonged to the Ptolemy published at Strasburg in 1520 by Johannes
Schott and were printed from the same blocks as those of the Ptolemy of
Aeszler and Uebelin in 1513.

extant are the maps of Ptolemaeus 1522, 1525, 1535 and Vienna 1541. They
are all reduced copies of the maps in the edit. 1513 with the exception of the
two, of which fac-similes have been given fig. 62 and 63. In Gesner's Biblio-

the ordinary 27 old maps, an appendix of twenty new ones, preceded by a long
second title-page: In Claudii Ptolemei Supplementum, etc., and a short preface.
On five of these new maps the discoveries of the Spaniards and Portuguese during
the preceding century are represented. Of these, the Hydrographia, sive
Charta Marina: continens typum orbis universalem iuxta Hydrographorum tradi-

The author of this monograph has failed to notice the great cartographical dis-
covery of Waldseemuller's map of the world, unknown except by name, and
first brought to light in 1901 . Harrisse, in his Discovery of North America, 1892,
p. 443, no. 69, "Waldseemuller's lost map," refers to this lost map as follows:
"It was a map of the world, of large size, constructed by Martin WaldseemtiUer,
at St. Diey, before the month of May, 1507, and probably printed at Strasburg
by Schott. It is, doubtless, the Mappamundi which is mentioned in a letter
addressed by Waldseemiiller to Ringman (Philesius) in February, 1508, and

Note. — In the description of the Library of Congress copy of Ptolemy's Geo-
graphia 1522, Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 361, note, p. 119, it is
stated " Nordenskiold considers that the statement on verso fol. 100 indicates
that Waldseemuller was not the author of the new maps but that he copied the
maps of the 1513 ed. on a reduced scale for this edition. Both the old and new
maps were reprinted in the editions of 1525, 1535 and 1541 with differences
only in borders and titles . . . The Tabvla Terre Nova, is practically the
same as that in the 1513 edition, with slight changes and the addition of
inscriptions, a woodcut representing natives, etc., added to South America.
The reverse contains an account of the voyages and discoveries of Columbus."

Johann Schoner professor of mathematics at Nuremberg. A reproduction of his

Molvccis " of Maximilianus Transylvanus with new translations and notes on the

"This is a well got up little volume on a subject of much interest to the student
of early geography. The globe to which it mainly refers was purchased by Mr.
Henry Stevens and was subsequently sold to another collector, Mr. H. Kalb-
fleisch, of New York. It is one of the earliest known productions of its kind,
having been preceded only by the well-known one by Martin Behaim, of
Nuremberg, of 1492, and the anonymous Laon globe of 1493 in pre-Columbian
times, and by the Hunt-Lenox globe now preserved in the Lenox Library of
New York, and by the two earlier globes of Schoner, dated respectively 1515
and 1533, in post-Columbian times. The importance of Schoner's third (1523)
globe lies in the fact that it was the first on which an attempt was made to lay
down the track of Magellan's vessel, the Victoria . The author, Johann Schoner,
was born at Carlstadt, in Franconia, in 1477, and devoted himself to geographical
science. It was doubtless through his devotion to his favorite studies that he
was deprived of his prebend at Bamberg. We are told that the fame of his
talents spread so far that in 1526, upon the advice of Melanchthon, he was
nominated to the chair of mathematics in the new Gymnasium at Nuremberg.
The late Mr. Stevens has done service in collecting the material for this volume,
and his friend, Mr. Coote, has worthily carried out his task, adding a bibliog-
raphy of Schoner's works and a good index [E. D. M.]" Consult review in:

"A globe of Schotur in 152S, mentioned in: De nuper sub Castilix ac Portu-
galisi Regibus Serenissimis repertis Insulis ac Regionibus, loannis Schoner Charo-
lipolitani epistola ct Globus Geographicus, serum navigationum annotantibus.
Clarissimo atque disertissimo viro Domino Reymero de Streijtpergh, eeclesix

dominicx MiUesimo quingentesimo vigesimotertio. This brochure is now very
rare, but it is reprinted in the above mentioned work of Wieser, and was pub-
lished as a separate pamphlet by F. Ad. de Vaenhagen at St. Petersburg in
1872. A facsimile of the original, with an English translation, is inserted in
the newly published elaborate monograph: Johann Schoner Professor of Mathe-
matics at Nuremberg. A reproduction of his globe of 1523 long lost, etc., by Henry
Stevens of Vermont, edited with an introduction and bibliography by C. 11.
CooTE, London, 1888. Schoner's brochure, the main part of which consists of
an eulogy of the discoveries of Vasco da Gama, Columbus, amd Magellan, often
with incorrectly written names and erroneous data, is of importance to the
history of cartography, because it forms a dedicatory letter to a globe presented
by Schoner to the bishop of Bamberg, and expressly constructed to illustrate
the important letter of Maximilian Transylvanus, De Moluccis insulis ad
rererendissimum Cardinalem Salzburgensem. A fac-simile and an English
translation are given in the above-mentioned work of Henry Stevens and Coote.
Some information as to the source of Schoner's knowledge of modern geography
is obtained, by the following words at the end of his letter: Globum hunc in
orbis modum effingere studui, exemplar haudfallibile aemulatus, quod Hispaniarum
solertia cuidam liro honore conspicuo transmisit (Wieser, p. 118) Schoner's
globe of 1523 has been, but so far as I can see without sufficient reason, identified
by Henry Stevens with the mappemonde in gores which was offered for sale in
the catalogue xlh no. 136 of Rosenthal, and which I have reproduced on pi.
XL. It is obvious that the first circumnavigation of the earth was the imme-
diate cause as well of the last mentioned globe-print, as of Schoner's letter and
globe of 1523. But several circumstances militate against the identification of
the mappemonde in gores sold by Rosenthal, with the globe made for the bishop
of Bamberg. Among the European towns engraved on the former we find the
names of Nuremberg, Venice, and Constantinople, but not of Bamberg, which
would have been little complimentary to the Bishop and contrary to the custom
of the period, if the work had been intended for him. The outlines of the New
World given on it differ completely from the geographical ideas of Schoner,
and are copied from maps of Battista Agnese of the fourth decennary of the 16th
centurj'. From this and on other grounds mentioned below, I conclude
that this globe has nothing to do with Schoner's globe of 1523." Consult
Nordenskiold, Facsimile-atlas, p. SO.

have been printed in gores." Consult Nordenskiold, Facsimile-atlas, p. 100.

Note. — This map of the gulf of Mexico which was evidently intended as an

seems to be the same reproduction as the copy belonging to this collection.
Stevens states in note to his description of this book: "This edition is particu-
larly valuable as being the only one containing the plan of the city of Mexico
as it existed before the conquest, and the chart of the entire Gulf of Mexico,
both of which are referred to in the Second Relation of Cortez, dated the 30th
of October, 1520, as being sent to the Emperor with that relation. They are
not known to have been printed in the Spanish editions. The plan and the
chart . . . are both on a large wood block and are here inserted in fac-

Bimile. The Mississippi river and the province of Amachel are indicated
with considerable accuracy. This wood cut is of rare occurrence."
Nordenskiold, Facsimile-atlas, p. 102, states: "This edition of the celebrated
letters of Cortes contains, like the two editions of Venetise, 1.524, a plan of
the city of Mexico which, to judge from the description of Harrisse, is not
found in the Spanish editions of Sevilla 1.522 and Saragossa 1523. This
and analogous plans of the famous city have often been copied in the 16th
centuT)-. It is of interest to compare them with an original drawing by Alonzo
de Santa Cruz of the Mexican capital and its en^-irons, of which I have given
a short account above and of which fig. 69 is a much reduced fac-simile."

"The original engraving of this chart appeared in a letter of Cortes, addressed
to the Emperor, and printed at Nuremberg in 1524. Kohl thinks it shows the
explorations of Garay, and does not embody any of those of Cortes himself.
He says it is the earliest map to show the name Florida. It may have been
made about the time of no. 247. It is reproduced in Stevens' Amer. Biblio-
grapher, p. 86; in his Notes, etc., pi. rv; and in the Nar. and Crit. Hist. America,
n, p. 404. It has an uncertain passage to the west, by which Yucatan is made
an island, of which there is an indication in no. 247, and unmistakable expres-
sion in the Maiollo map of 1527 {ante, under no. 39) and is suggested in a map
by Friess {post, no 371). Later miaps, like the Verrazano, 1529 {ante, under
no. 42);Ribero, 1529 {ante, no. 41); the Lenox wood-cut, 1534 {ante, no. 47,
since reproduced in the Nar. and Crit. Bist. America, n, p. 223); the British
Museum map of 1536 {post, no. 251) make Yucatan insular, but do not carry
the passage to the western sea." Consult Winsor's description of the Kohl Col-
lection, no. 24S.

Harrisse's Dixroiery of North America, pp. 509-510, states:
"This map is said to have been sent by Femand Cortes to Charles v together
with his second letter dated Villa Segma de la Frontera, October 30, 1-520.
The original is lost, but it was reproduced four years afterwards in facsimile,
on the same plate with the plan of the City of Mexico added to the Latin version
of that letter published at Nuremberg by Pej'pus in 1524. It measures 200
by 1.50 mm." See also page 563.

In the work by Francis Augustus MacNutt, entitled Letters of Cortes . . .
2 V. 190S, no reference is made to this map but certain maps are described on
page vii (preface) as follows:

"The plan of the City of Mexico is taken from the Eistoria Antigua of Senor
Manuel Orozco y Berra and the several maps are from the editions in which
they originally appeared of the Storia Antica del Messico of Clavigero, 1780,
Lorenzana's Historia de Nueva Espana, 1T70, and of C. St. John Fancourts'
History of Yucatan from its discovery to the close of the seventeenth century."

already knew all the harbors and bays marked on the cloth which Montezuma
gave to Cortes, from the time we came on the voyage of discovery with Grijalva,
except the river of Coatzacoalcos, which they said was very strong and deep,
Cortes determined to send and see what it was like, and to take soundings
of the harbor and the entrance."

Hanisse, in his Discovery of North America, p. 540, no. 16S, gives this descrip-
tion: ''The Laurentiana Map. A planisphere on parchment, 1490 by 945
mm., in Spanish, but including purely Portuguese names. The American
coast extends unbroken from Labrador to the Strait of Magellan. The con-
figvirations of the South American continent recall those of the Turin map, and
bear the only generic name of "Tierra firme." West of the Gulf of Mexico
there is a plan of "Tenvstitam." Our impression is that this map was con-
structed in the time which elapsed between the making of the Turin map and
that of the Weimar chart of 1527. It gives for the northern coast of South
America several of the names which are in the former and not in the later, viz. :
"Costa de Paricura," "Valle de Amerigo," "Monte espeso," and the legends:
"Visto de le-xo," and "Visto no mas el fondo." The new names are few, but
important : R.de Pascua Seturma Campana de Roldan La Garga Rio Holo Rio
de S. Sebastian Barreras blancas Canal de todos los sanctos.
This map, which is preserved in the Library of the Medici at Florence, con-
tains the arms of the Salviatis, surmounted by a cardinal's hat, which leads
us to suppose that it belonged to Giovanni Salviati, who was nuncio in Spain
from 1525 until 1530."

Note. — Nordenskiold's Periplus, p. 150, states:

"If we consider Canerio's and Cantino's maps, that of Hamy, and Kunstmann
Nos. 2 and 3 more as charts in portolano style rather than real portolanos, then
Vesconte Maiolo was the first to publish maps of the New World in the same
style as ordinary portolanos. In this respect he was a forerunner of Battista
Agnese and vied with him in respect to the ornamental execution of the work.
^^'hat its geographical value may have been I cannot determine owing to the
want of complete reproductions. PI. V of Kunstmann is a fine reproduction of
the map of the New World in Maiolo's Atlas of 1519, which is signed: "Vesconte
de Maiollo civis Janue composuy banc cartam in Janua de anno domini 1519."
The original is in the Royal Library at Munich. The map of 1527 is a planis-
phere on two leaves of parchment, together 1.70 x 0.60 m., signed: "Vesconte
de Maiollo composuy hanc cartan in Janua anno diiy 1527 die xx Decenbris."
At present the date on the map reads 1587, but as Desimoni notes, this has
arisen from a falsifying of dates quite usual with portolanos. The American
part of the map, which has been reproduced by Ilarrisse (Disc, of N. Am.,
p. 217) and by Kretschmer, is of importance as representing a new type of map
for the northern part of America, here called Francesca, which type first
appeared after the return of Verrazano. The isthmus of Panama is divided by
a narrow strait, " streito dubitoso." A map of this type was plainly the source
of Miinster's delineation of America (FA, fig. 73j and of Georg Hartmann's (?)
globe of about 1540 (FA, pi. XL) The original is in the Ambrosiana at Milan."
There is a reproduction from the original in Kretschmer's Die entdeclcung

graphical magazine, march, 1908, p. 157:

"An old Italian chart. — The November number of the BoUettino della Societa
Geographica Italiana contains an account of the discovery, in the Bibliotheca
Federiciana of Fano in the Adriatic, of an old navigating chart, hitherto un-
known to students, by Visconte Maggiolo, the Genoese cartographer. The
oldest known charts by this cartographer are, one at Paris, dated 1511; and
another at Parma, dated 1512, while several others of later date are extant.
The present map is the only one of these which includes the whole of the then
known world, and is dated 15-4. It is known that in April 1534, Maggiolo
received a commission from Lorenzo Lomellino to construct such a map, and
it is surmised by the author of the paper, Professor S. Crino, that in the legend
of the chart the figure 3 has disappeared, and that it is therefore the chart
alluded to. It has several peculiarities. Thus the coast of America is more
accurately shown than in other works of Maggiolo's, and the coast line of Africa
and the course of the Nile are wonderfully exact."

discussed by Henry Harrisse, the Discovery of North America,
London and Paris, 1892, pp. 557-59, where he gives a list of the
names which appear on the map for the first time. V. H. Paltsits
in the Am. Hist. Review, Vol. x, p. 867 (July, 1905) says: " Vari-
ousty ascribed to Ferdinand Columbus, Nuno Garcia de Toreno,
and Ribero, but the maker has not been absolutely determined.
... It portrays for the first time the New World as a whole land
mass." WL 26-27

Note. — Winsor describes this map in his description of the Kohl Collection,
p. 36-37, title 38, in which he calls it the so called Hernando Colon map:
"The original (on parchment) is anonymous, and in the Grand-Ducal library
at Weimar, and is dated at Seville in 1527. Dining the sixteenth and seven-
teenth centm^ies it had been kept in Nuremberg. Kohl, as has been the custom;
assigns it to Ferdinand Columbus, but Harrisse dismisses his and other claims,
and is inclined to ascribe it to Xuiio Gai'cia de Toreno. Cf. Winsor's Bibliog.
of Ptolemy' s Geog., sub anno 1540, for references. It shows the line of demarca-
tion, as established between Spain and Portugal, or rather the Spanish \'iew
regarding that vexed question. Kohl later published a fac-simile of the
American parts of this map in his Die beiden altesten Generalkarten von Amerika,
Weimar, 1860. " For the Kohl reproduction mentioned see reference in Phil-
lips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 1135.

Stevenson in his descriptive " Text" to his reproductions no. 9, consult the above
"List" title 1139, describes it in detail and calls it Weimar-Spanish.
Nordenskiold, Periplus, p. 154, gives the following: "An anonymous Spanish
map of the world in the Grand Ducal Library at Weimar signed : ' Carta universal
en qve se contiene todo lo qve del mundo sea descubi[erto] fasta aora hizola un
cosmographo de Su Magestad anno mdxxvii en Se^^Ua.' The author is not
stated, but the agreement of the map, even as regards details of decoration, with
Diego Ribero's map of 1529 in the Propaganda Library proves this to be a work
of the aforesaid cosmographer or a copy of the original which Ribero employed.
This again was ob\-iously founded on the map composed by the Chamber of Com-
merce in Se\'ille, the Padron real, now lost. Portuguese authorities also were
accessible to the designer of the map, this being plainly proved by the manner

in which the East Indian Peninaula and the Southeastern part of China are
reproduced. The supposition that Fernando Columbus was the author of this
map is obviously a mistake. Neither on this map nor on Ribero's maps of 1529
is any mention made of Zipangu or Japan. The mariner-cosmographer has on
his map placed only those newly discovered lands that had really been sighted
by the Spaniards and Portuguese. Terra Australis, of whose existence the
theoretical cosmographers were so convinced, is also omitted. "

map in Reich's Margarita Philosophica, 1515. He also states that this map is
the only printed map known to him between the years 1515-1519. On p. 103
is the following description: "Robert Thome's map of 1527 (n. t. xii) This
map is inserted into Richard Hakluyt's Divers Voyages touching the discouerie
of America and the Hands adiacent vnlo the same, made first of all by our English-
men and aftencards by the Frenchmen and Britons . . . with two mappes annexed
heereunto for the plainer understanding of the whole matter . . . London 1582;
reprinted in 1S50 with a valuable introduction and illustrative notes by John
Winter Jone.s, in Works issued by the Ilahluyt Society. A long inscription on the
right side of this map says that it was sent from Seville by the merchant Master
Robert Thome to Doctor Ley, Embassadour for king ffenry the 8. to Charles the
Emperour. Harrisse (Cabot, p. 176) supposed it to be based on the prototype of
the planispheres in Weimar and on the map of Nufio Garcia de Torrena. This
can only be the case as to the delineation of the Xew World, the work of Thome
being, as regards the Old World, so exact a copy of the map in Reisch's Margarita
Philosophica of 1515 (n. t. xxxviii) that no doubt is possible as to the principal
source of Thome's geographical knowledge of that part of the globe. But for
the New World he e\-idently had access to other sources, probably consisting of
hand-drawn Spanish maps. As regards the delineation of South America and
the Isthmus of Panama, the map shows real progress. It is, also, specially
interesting from the illustration here given of the controversies between the
Spaniards and the Portuguese respecting the proper place of the famous Papal
line of demarcation.

" The map has pre\-iously been reproduced in the Works issued by the Hakluyt
society, London, ISoO. The facsimile given on T. XLi is from a photograph
of the original at the British Museum. Thome was one of those wealthy,
intelligent and enterprising merchants who energetically contributed to the
development of England's commercial predominance at sea. In order to
make it possible for English tradesmen to compete with those of Spain and
Portugal, he was eager for the discover^- of a northem passage to China, Japan,
and India, and to promote voyages of discovery to achieve such a passage he
sent memorials to Edward Leigh the English Ambassador in Madrid, and to
King Henry vm. It is these letters which Hakluyt has published in his
above mentioned work, and which are of such importance to the history of
geography."

See also various references to this map in Harrisse's Discovery of North America,
In Kretschmer's Die entdeckung Amerika's the american portion is given "Xach

this work cf. Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 1138.
A reproduction is also given in Harrisse's Discovery of North America, which
devotes pp. 562-568 to a full geographical and bibliographical description.
Nordenskiold's Periplus has the following, p. 154:

"(1528) Le globe dore or De Bure's globe in the Bibl. nationale of Paris.
(Circumference 0.70 m.) The globe is engraved on copper and gilded. The
title Nova et integra universi orbis descriptio are stamped thereon, but the author
and date are not mentioned. G. Marcel {Reprod. de cartes et de globes etc.,
Paris 1893) gives a detailed description of it and an incomplete representation
of the drawing of the Western Hemisphere. Asia is here made to join the
New World on the Southern part of which is inscribed "America inventa 1497."
The North part contains the name of Mare Tabin (I) Baccalearum reg.. Terra
Francesca, Desertum Lop, Asia orientalis, Cathay (on the coast of the Mexican
Gulf which is called here Sinus S. Michaelis) Tebeth, etc. The drawing of
the globe corresponds with the double heart shaped map of the world of 1531
by Orontius Finaeus (FA, pi. xli), and with Schoner's globe of 1533. The
legends are in Latin with some few Germanisms, which lead Harrisse to the
conclusion that this is a German work. To me this seems extremely probable,
as the drawing of the globe exactly corresponds to Caspar Vopel's globe of 1542,
preserved in the town-archives of Cologne. Possibly it is of a later date (about
1540) than that cited above on the authority of Marcel and Harrisse."
Further on, p. 159, he states in connection with the Nancy Globe "Probably
the Globe Dore, no. 51, and this globe date from about the same time."
In comparing the reproductions of these two globes, they seem to differ in
many essential points.

A description of the Nancy globe, with reproduction, is found in the Magazine
of american history, march, 1881, v. 6, pp. 183-187, by B. F. De Costa. Also a

states:

' ' Reproduced verj' incompletely and on a much reduced scale by James Carson
Brevoort: Verrazano the Navigator, New York, 1S74- The Indian peninsulas
are given with fair correctness, but the Australasian islands, very imperfectly.
Hieronymus Verrazano was a brother of the explorer Giovanni, who is said to
have been hanged as a pirate in November 1527, by command of Charles v.
The map is at the Propaganda Library in Rome. Formerly it belonged to
Stefano Borgia."

Note. — In "Text" to accompany the reproduction of Stevenson there is a de-
scription of this map. Consult Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 1139.
The following is from Winsor's description of the Kohl Collection, title 41, 42, p. 38:
"These copies give only the American parts of this map of the world. Kohl
in these drawings copied the draft of it by Giissefeldt, which was given in a
monograph by M. C. Sprengel, Uber Ribcro's dlteste Well-karte, published in
179.5, which followed a copy at Jena, and which Kohl says he follows in lieu of
something better. In 1860 Kohl reproduced the Weimar original in his Die
beiden altesten General-Karlen von America. The entire map is given in San-
tarem, in Lelewel, and in Ruge's Geschichle dcs Zcilalters der Entdeckungen
(1883) There is another early copy in the Archivao del Collegio di Propa-
ganda at Rome. Consult the references in Winsor's Bibliog. of Ptolemy's Geog.,
sub anno 1540, and the Bull, de la Soc. de geog. de Paris (184'!) 1, P- 309.
" Referring to the Newfoundland region, Kohl thinks Ribero may have seen and
used a map of these parts made in 1506 by a Frenchman. This refers to
Charlevoi.x's statement of a map made by Jehan Denys; but Harrisse, Cabots,
p. 250, pronounces it "absolument apocryphc." A facsimile of an undated
map of the Ribero type was published by the Spanish Government in the Cartas
de Indias in 1877.

"A Spanish planisphere, in the possession of the Marchesi Castiglione in Mantua,
shows the whole Atlantic coast of both Americas, and on the Labrador coast
has this legend: "Tierra que descobrio Estevan Gomez este ano do 1525 por
mandado de su majestad." Consult Studi biog. e bibliog. dclla Soc. geog. Hal.,

Agnese, Battista.

Map of North and South America. Ms. on parchment. Map
22.5 X 15.2 cms.; parchment 25.5 x 18 cms. No name, title or
date. Original in Ambrosian Library, Milan. Henry Harrisse, in
his The Discovery of North America, London and Paris, 1892, con-
siders the various Agnese Atlases on pp. 626-630. The earliest
date assigned is 1536. wl 32

Note. — For references to various maps of Agnese consult P. Amat di S. Filippo
and G. Uzielli, Studi biografici bibliografici . v. 2, pp. 116-142.
The notice in Hanisse's Discovery of North America, referring to the various
maps of Agnese does not mention any map of his in the Ambrosian Library at
Milan.

He says, pp. 626-^27:

"Baptista Agnese was a very artistic cartographer of Genoese origin, who exer-
cised his profession at Venice from 1536 until 1564. We possess altases, dated
and signed by him, of 1536, 1543, 1544, 1545, 1553, 1554, 1555, 1559, 1562, and
1564. There exist others which bear neither date nor signature, but are cer-
tainly the work of Agnese, as the geographical configurations, nomenclature,
caligraphy, dimensions, and ornaments, resemble altogether those of the
atlases bearing his name. Besides, there is a peculiarity common to all, which
is a sure test to determine among the atlases of small size made in Italy, in the
middle of the sixteenth century, those which must be attributed to that car-
tographer. It is this: In the oval mappamundi we invariably see routes traced
or dotted, in gold or in silver, or simply coloured, indicating the itinerary
followed by ships sailing from Lisbon to the East Indies, and from Cadiz to
the north and south of the New World."

Kohl in his History of the discovery of Maine, says Agnese "was no traveler or
discoverer himself, but received his information from others. He is said to
have composed his maps for the curious." Consult pp. 292-295.
Justin Winsor in his article entitled Baptista Agnese and american cartography
in the sixteenth century, p. S, says:

"Besides these two theories of the North American contour which Agnese had
to decide between in 1536, there was a current conception which had sprung
from Verrazano's voyage in 1524, and which had received illustration in the map
made by his brother, and now in the Propaganda at Rome. It had been further
exemplified in a Maiollo map (1527) now in the Ambrosian Library at Milan."
This map is probably that referred to as no. 34, "Undatierte Atlanten," Mai-
land, Bibl. Ambrosiana, in Kretschmer's Die Atlanten des Battista Agnese.

THE LOWEHV COLLECTION 43

The present reproduction of the map of this date has many points of resem-
blance to the other maps of Agnese with reference to the Florida coast."
The following works relate to the various cartographical works of Agnese:

Harrisse, Major and Winsor were inclined to attribute the original to Baptista
Agnese. There is a difference of opinion in regard to the date; Sjiitzer and
Wiener assigned 1539, because the atlas shows no recognition of the coast of
Chili, which was developed about 1540. Harrisse places it under 1542; Fischer,
Wieser and Kretschmer say 1548; and Ruge prefers 1550. Cf. Winsor's Bap-
tista Agnese and american cartography in the sixteenth century, p. 11. M.
Malte Brun in a "Compte rendu" before the Soc. de giogr. de Paris, juin 1S76,

The author of this article gives a description of this anonymous portolano and
attributes it to Giov. Battista Agnese, after comparing it with manuscript maps
contained in libraries in Germany and Italy, and with several portolanos of that
cartographer. He gives it the date of 1548 according to the amount of geo-
graphical knowledge which it contains.

Chaves, Alonso de.

There is a geographical description of Florida in Oviedo's His-
toria General y Natural de las Indias, Lib. xxi, Cap. viii, Tomo
2, pp. 143-144. Madrid, 1851. The description appears to be
based upon a map of Alonso de Chaves of 1536, for in the following
chapter x, p. 149, which continues the description of the same
coast to the north, Oviedo says: "6 alii (i. e. el rio e tierra de
los Bacallaos) hafe fin la carta moderna del cosmographo Alonso
de Chaves, que nuevamente se corrigio e emendo, el ano que pass6
de mill e quinientos y treynta y seys anos." The publication of
Oviedo's history extended from 1535 to 1555. See. Narr. and Crit.
Hist. Am., vol. ii, p. 343. lc 35

Note. — The map here referred to, by Alonzo de Chaves, was consulted by
Oviedo, but has now disappeared.

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 45

In an article by B. F. De Costa, entitled Cabo de Arenas; or the place of Sandy
Eook in the old cartohgy [as indicated in the map of Alonzo Chaves, now lost]
[In Xfu England {The) historical and genealogical register. 1SS5. 8°. Boston,
ISSS. V. 39, pp. 146-160 incl. map], he says: "As we learn from Oviedo, in
1536, Charles v ordered that the charts should "be examined and corrected"
by experienced men appointed for the purpose. Acting under their instruc-
tions, Alonzo Chaves drew up a map embodying what information he had
collected, though he had heard nothing of the voyages of Cartier in 1534-5.
This map was used by Oviedo in his description of the American coast, pub-
lished in 1537. The chart of Chaves has been reconstructed by the present
writer from the description of the Spanish historian, so far as it exhibits the
cartology of the North Atlantic coast, and whoever compares our sketch of the
map with Oviedo'a description, will find the sketch sufficiently exact for the
purposes of this paper."

In title 2720 of Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, map no. 1 of the entry
under Frontihes entre le Bresil et la Guyane franQaise . . . Berne, 1899, is a

Note. — The following notice is a manuscript description attached to the bor-
der of the Kohl reproduction mentioned above:

"This chart of the Mexican Gulf and adjacent countries is taken from a large
manuscript map in the British Museum (No. 5413 of the Manuscript Department)
In the catalogue of the Brit. Mus. the date 1536 is given to the map.
"The language of the chart is partly in Spain, partly in French, and the Spanish
is sometimes very much corrupted . . .

"It is therefore evident that our map is a copy of a Spanish original, compiled
in France by a Frenchman.

" If the map is really of the year 1536 as th6 Catalogue of the British Museum
adopts, then the 'Governor,' named in the above mentioned inscription must
be Narvaez, and the original may have been one of those Spanish maps, which
resulted from the unhappy expedition of Narvaez.

"The configuration of the Peninsula of Florida is for the time very well given.
The harbours on the West coast of this Peninsula, which the captains of Narvaez
explored, are indicated.

" lucatan ('Lucatan') is represented as an island. The name Mexico is used
a.s the name of a country. The Metropolis itself is still called: 'Temistitan.'
The Mississippi is called 'Rivifere de St. Esprit,' 'Las maras' (the marshes)
to the east of it are perhaps lakes Ponlchartrain and Maurepas."

"Map of the world by Alonzo de Santa Cruz, preserved in the Royal Library at
Stockholm (1.44 x 0.79 m) Title: Nova verior et integra totius orbis descriptio
nunc primum in lueem edita per Alfonsiim de Sanda Cruz Caesaris Charoli v.
archicosmographum, A. D. uoxlii. It was probably brought home to Sweden .
by J. G. Sparvenfelt, who in 1689-94 traveled about in Europe seeking
Swedish and Gothic antiquities. The map of the globe is here di\'ided into
two hemispheres, one north and one soHth, of which each is divided into 36
segments in a way ehown in the reproduction on pi. L. The map may be cut
out, and with but slight distension of the material, on which it is drawn, may be •
pasted on a sphere, and thus form a globe. This, however, was probably not
the sole intention of this new projection introduced by Santa Cruz, but the
chief idea was to obtain a map on which the distances between different places
could be at once found. At all events the following words cited by Harrisse
from a work by Vanegas de Busto {Las diferentias de libros que ay en el Unirerso,
Toledo 1540, Chap, xri) seem to refer to maps of this kind: 'Ora nuevamente
Alonso de Santa Cruz, a peticion del Emperador, ha hecho una carta abierta
por los meridianos ,desde la equinocial d los polos; en la cual, sacando por
el compas la distancia de los blancos que hay de meridiano & meridiano, que
de la distancia verdadera de cada grade, reduciendo la distancia, que queda.
d leguas de linea mayor.'

" The map is fully described and carefully reproduced by E. W. Dahlgren in his
Map of the world by Alonzo de Santa Cruz, Stockholm 1S92. In the present
work I can only reproduce it on so small a scale that the legends mostly become
illegible, as, even on the original, they are inscribed with extremely fine and
almost illegible ^"riting. All the legends, so far as it has been possible to
decipher them, are given in Dahlgren's work. Those that occiu- on the coasta
of the New World will be given here in the next chapter.

"Santa Cruz was cosm6grafo real, or, as he himself renders the title in Latin,
archicosmographus to the Emperor Charles v. He had been a member of the
unsuccessful expedition undertaken by Sebastian Cabot to La Plata. He took
a part in the editing of Padron real and was entrusted with many confidential
geographical commissions by the Spanish sovereign. From this it may be
gathered what importance attaches to this, the sole remaining large map by
Santa Cruz, which, together with a map of Mexico (FA, fig. 69) is still extant. "

coast of America."

In Nordenskiold's Peripius, -p. 65, is a general reference to the various portolan-
atlases by Agnese:

"Battista Agnese is one of the most prolific portolan-draughtsmen of the 16th
centuT)'. His works are distinguished by a remarkable elegance and a technical
perfection, that make them real works of art. On account of their lack of
originality they are less important in a purely geographical respect than their
exterior promises. They, however, formed, may be for some years only, what
one might call the normal-portolano of the new world, and for that reason deserve
a closer study than has been bestowed on them up to the present. Besides, there
is in Agnese an oval map of the world, on which ocean-routes are marked.
.The oldest Agnese-portolano quoted in U.-A. (ii, p. 113) is of 1.527. It ia

dated 1529, 1536, 1564 {Cf. Catal. of additions to the Brit. Mus. manuscripts
1861-7-?, no. 25442) In the Marcian Library there are Agnese-portolanos of
1545, 1553 (?) and 1554 (reproduced by Ongania xvn.) Besides there are
works by this industrious map-draughtsman in the Laurentian Library at
Florence (atlas with 13 maps, 1543); at Munich (atlas with 13 maps, dated
1536-1550, the maps of America reproduced by Kunstmann); Paris (1543 and
1548); Dresden (1544); Gotha (1546); Catania (1562), and others. An exceed-
ingly fine undated portolan-atlaa kept in the Royal Library at Stockholm is
evidently by Agnese; it is here partly reproduced on pi. xxiv. Agnese is
also without doubt the author of an anonymous undated portolan-atlas with
15 charts, in the Bibl. nazionale at Florence, also of le portulan de Malartic,
described by Paul Gaffarel in Mimoires de la SociHe bourguignonne de giogra-

Note. — Harrisse, in the above-mentioned work, p. 646, states:
"Besides, the general appearance of the map, and the lake or wide morass on
the north of Florida, which seems to be intended for the Okefonoke swamp
together with the said name of "Apalache and perhaps those of "Rio de loa
Angeles" and "C. Romo," lead us to think that some of the data used in the
present map were gathered during the famous expedition of Hernando de
Soto, initiated May 12, 1539, but the results of which were known only in
Spain in 1544."

of Verrazano. Kohl fhinks that, for the region north of Cape Breton, the map
is based on the maps of Alfonso and Cartier. He remarks on the half Portuguese
name of the St. Lawrence, — Rio do Canada. The G. lorens of the map is not
the great gulf, but a small bay opposite the north shore of Anticosti. The
eastern shore of Newfoundland has a mixtiu-e of French and Portuguese names.
On Labrador they are mostly Portuguese. The name of Vallard may signify
ownership rather than mark the maker. Consult A'or. and Crit. Hut. Anurica,
IV, p. S6, and for a sketch, p. 87." Consult Winsor's Kohl Collection, no. 154.
■• This shows the coast of both oceans, from 35° N. to 10° S. latitude. It is from
the MS. atlas in the Sir Thomas Phillipps Collection. Kohl conjectures that
the Spanish drafts, apparently used in the making of this map, may have been
those brought from the peninsula in 1542 by Don Miguel de Sylva."
Consult the sketch from a ms. atlas in the Bodleian, given in the A'ar. and Crit.
Hist. America, II, p. 292. Consult Winsor's Kohl Collection, no. 253.
The manuscript border text to map no. 253 of this collection has the following:
"This is a copy of a map of New Spain, contained in a manuscript Atlas, in the
possession of Sir Thomas Phillipps in Middlehill in Worcestershire in England,
The charts and Maps of this atlas are made in the year 1547 by a Frenchman
'Nicolas Vallard de Dieppe.'

"The pre-sent map has (on the back of the sheet) the title: "De la neuve
Espagne'' (of New Spain)

" The map is upon the whole very correct, and is of course made after Spanish
originals. How these Spanish originals came out to France is not known with
certainty. But it is said, that in the year 1542 'Don Miguel de Sylva,' a bishop
of Viseo, came out to France from the Pyrenean Peninsula, and brought Portu-
guese and Spanish maps with him, which were then copied in France. If this is
true, the original of the map was probably made in the latter time of Cortes'
government in Mexico or in the beginning of the government of the Viceroy
Mendoza.

"This date seems to correspond with the circumstance, that there is on the
map no indication of California, of which the first general map was compiled in
Mexico in the year 1541 by Castillo. This Castillos may not yet have arrived
in Spain at the time of the construction of the original of our map and not yet
in France, when A'allard (1547) copied it. The manner, in which a large picture
of the city of Mexico (Temistitan) is embodied into the map (it covers the whole
interior of the country), shows that the memory of the conquest of this empire was
slillfrcsh.

' ' Vallard partly translated his Spanish map into French, and this way made
sometimes very curious half Spanish, half French names and phrases. For
instance: 'La mer du Sur' (South Sea)

"The name 'perou' (Peru) stands on a very strange place, in the middle of the
Carribean Sea. But it is evident, that it is meant for the whole of South
America.

' ' The Latitudes on this map are much better than on all the older maps, and for
instance on that of Rotz (See our collection) The tropic of Cancer runs to the
North of Cuba, and the 10° N. L. near the Northshore of Trinidad, which is
however not quite true yet.

' ' The Antilles and the Caribean Islands are still better drawn than on Rotz' map.
Of the great rivers only the mouths are indicated:

' Rio del Espiritu '=Mississippi. ' Rio grande '=Magdalena river. 'Rio do

"The Laguna de Maracaybo is doubled, which doubling of the picture on the

' ' This is one of the earliest maps which were printed in Spain . That accompany-
ing the work of Gomara of 1554 (See oiu- Collection) is the second. These early
Spanish printed maps resemble each other all in this, that they are of a very
Bmall size. Probably the Spanish monarchs did not wish to have maps of
America published on a large scale. The[y] resemble each other also in this cir-
cumstance, that they have not adopted the name of America, and that they call
South America generally: ' Peru ' and North America: ' Nueva Espana ' (New
Spain) and the whole: 'Nueva Mundo ' (The New World)
" Our map is also in this respect alike to the following of Gomara, that both show
nothing of California and end both on a Meridian not far to the West of Mexico.
The Meridian, on which on our map the Degrees of Latitude are numbered,
is in the same time the Line of Demarcation between Portugal and Spain. It

Note. — "This is a copy of anold french manuscript map which the celebrated
savant Jomard discovered in the possession of a french noble family.
" Neither the author nor the time of the map are indicated,
"The most exuaordinary circumstance on the map is this, that there is no
indication of California at all. The Pacific Coast of America is represented as
known only as far as a little beyond Tehuantepec ('Teguantepec') From
there to the North appears no JIar ^'erme]o (California gulf) no Californian
Peninsula, nothing but a rudely drawn coast line with occasionally an "R"
(River) or 'B' (Bay) or 'G"' (Gulf) upon it. From this circumstance one
should be incUned to think that the map was made before the year 1533, for
after this year the discovery of CaUfornia by Cortes was already known in
Europe, and all the better maps after 1.533 have California depicted on them.
Our map has all the Eastern coasts represented v.'ith such an evident care, that it
seems, the author intended to give all what was known at his time and all what
he knew himself about these regions. To suppose, that a man, who had so
good materials, as those must have been, from which he took the Mexican
Gulf, the Antillian islands, etc., should have no materials at all and no informa-
tion whatever about the Pacific Coast, if such information and materials existed
at all, would be inconsistent.

" There are also no indications on the East Coast, which could force us to adopt
a later date than 1533. There are for instance no traces of De Soto's expedition
(1538—13) or of any other later expedition. The features of those Eastern
Coast, and of the Mexican Ciulf and of the AntilMan were in the same manner
already represented on former Spanish maps before 1533, for instance on the
map of Rebeiro, and on those, which served to him as materials.
" Nevertheless Mr. Jomard, a high authority, believes that the map was made at
the time of king Henry ii. And if I am right he puts its date in about the year
1550. I unhappily do not know his reasons for this \'iew, which are no doubt
very good.

"AU what I can say is, that the map must have been maxie after 1530 because the
Bermadas ('La bermude') are upon it, which islands were only discovered 1530,
and that it cannot have been made after 1554, because then the French dis-
coveries of Ribaut and Laudonniere (1554) would have been noticed on it. The

mapmaker, who was evidently a frenchman, could not have forgotten the dis-
coveries of his countrymen.

" That the map u'os made by a Frenchman is without doubt, because the language
is partly French partly Spanish. A Spaniard or Italian would never have used
the French language.

"Amongst some peculiarities, which the map shows are the following: The
island 'La Catholique' East of the Lucayan islands. I know nothing about
the history of this fabulous island.
".4 very good picture of the American Lyon or the puma.

"A picture of the Unicorne in the territory of the present state of New York."
Consult ms. border text to the Kohl reproduction, map no. 255.
"This is a French map, and shows the Atlantic coa-st, from Maine to Honduras.
The corresponding Pacific coast from about the latitude of Mexico (City), is a
mere north-and-south line, with conventional river-mouths. Kohl says the
original was discovered by Jomard in the possession of a French noble family.
To judge from the absence of California one would place the map before (say)
1535; and the absence of traces of De Soto's and other explorations on the Atlantic
side would indicate as early a date; but Kohl places it under "about 1555," as
that was Jomard 's opinion. Kohl is in enor in supposing that the presence of
Bermuda on the map establishes the date .after 1530; since Bermuda is on the
Peter Mai'tyr map of 1511, a map unknown to Kohl. It is sketched in the
\ar. and Crit. Hist. American, ii, p. 224." Consult Winsor's description of

Note. — "This is a copy of a very remarkable Manuscript Map of Mexico,

preserved in the British Museum.

"The map was made by the well known chartographer Diego Homen, by birth a

Portuguese, in the year 1558.

' ' The original (as all the manuscripts of Diego Homen) is very carefully painted

with brilliant colors. It has the curiosity, that the West coast of America is

painted blue, whilst the East coast has a golden brim.

" It is the first general map, of which I know, which has embodied into it a very

accurate picture of the California peninsula and Gulf.

"The configuration of the Gulf resembles very much to that, given to it on the

map of Castillo, communicated by Bishop Lorenzano. It has also like that

map the Northern end of the Gulf 2 degrees too high North. But the numerous

names of that map are wanting.

"The Peninsula of California is, however, on the present map much better laid

down than on that of Ca,stello, and the Latitudes are here also better. For

instance Isla de Cedros, as the discoverer Ulloa has it in 30° N. L. and not as

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 63

Castello has it in 27° N. L. Diego Homen had perhaps Ulloa's own maps,
or sketches made after him.

"There are, however, on our map no traces of Cabrillo's Cali/ornian voyage oj
discovery in the year 1542.

"The city and Lake of Mexico are still represented somewhat large, but at least
do not cover more [than] the whole country, as on the map of 1547. It is a
sign, that the great surprise of the world about this discovery had already a
little diminished.

" Ri\'or PaniK'o is made to run out from the Lake of Mexico.
"Th, Mi"i-M|ii.i (Rio Espirito S""") has only on« main channel as on all the old
Siiani.-h iiKi| -, and not so many fanciful branches, as on later maps.
'• Thu .Me.\icau Gulf is called 'Sinus magnus Antiliarum ' (the great gulf of the
Antilles)

" Central America is very similarly shaped to the map of N. Vallard of 1547 (see
our collection) Compare for instance the forms given to Yucatan on both maps.
" They are exactly alike, which is a proof, that Homen and Vallard worked after
the same originals.

"Why Homen gives to the South Sea the unusual name of "Oceanus Occidentis "
(the ocean of the West) I do not know though it could have been with respect to
America indeed a very good name, more appropriate than that of the South
Sea."

Consult border ms. text to map no. 257, Kohl Collection.
" It shows the coasts of both oceans north of the Ir^thmus of Panama to 33° north

(Mississippi) has one main channel. It is sketched in the Nar. and Crit. Hist,

The only Homen map mentioned by Harrisse is the one to which he refers as
• follows, no. 254, p. 646:

"'The original, among Lord Lumley's (d. 1609) maps in the British Museum,
is noteworthy from the west coast of the two Americas having no defined or

Mundus Nofus.' We know of no map of Diego Homem anterior to 1557."

67740, collation:

'"11 Cuschocitta principale della provincia del Perv' on 11. 411 and 412; 'La
Nvova Francia, Terra de Nvrvmbega, Terra de Laborador, Isola de demoni.
Terra Nvova' etc., on 11. 424 and 425; 'Brasil' on 11. 427 and 428; 'Parte del
Africa' on 11. 430 and 431; 'Taprobana' on 11. 433 and 434 (misnumbered 430
and 431 in the New York Historical Society copy) 'La Terra de Hochelaga
nella nova Francia' on 11. 446 and 447; and 'Universale della parte del Hondo
nuovamente ritrovata' on 11. 455 and 456, containing both American continents,
the northern as La Nova Spagna, and the Southern as El Perv. Also a map of

IsoUi Spagnvola on the recto of leaf 44, a plan of the city of Mexico on verso
of leaf 308, and numerous other woodcuts."

In collation to title 67741 in connection with the 1565 edition, he further state?:
"The second edition of the third volume, and a mere reprint of the edition of
1556, with which it agrees nearly page for page. The double-page woodcut
maps also have the same leaf numbers. All the woodcuts and maps, however,
were reengraved for this edition, as those used in the first were destroyed by
fire in 1557."

"Soiii. niap^ .if ( .a-talili, which were first inserted in the third volume of Ra-
musio's known collection of voyages printed in 1556. The maps are considered
to have been finished before 1550. In the Discorso di M. Gio. Battista Ramusio
sopra U terzo volume delle navigationi & viaggi nella parte del Mondo Nuovo all'
eccelknte M. Uieronymo Frncastoro dated the 20th of June 1553 and forming the
introduction to the third volume of Ramusio's work, he says that, on Fracastero's
repeated request to have four or five maps of the newly discovered lands made
in the Ptolemaic style, he had asked the distinguished cosmographer Giacomo
Gast.\ldi to construct a general and tour special maps of those parts of the earth.
In vol. Ill there are five maps, corresponding to the above communication, ^^z.
Nuova Francia (a part of Labrador, New Foundland and Canada) Brasil;
Parte del' Africa; Taprobana and Universale della parte del Mondo nuovamente
ritrovata. The maps are reproduced by wood-cut. The first mentioned four
are so imperfect, and so different from all other other maps of Gastaldi which I
have seen, that they can scarcely be considered as original works of this dis-
tinguished cosmographer. They seem rather to be copies ornamented in
Munster's style by some ignorant wood-cutter, from originals of Gastaldi. The
map of Nova Francia is reproduced in several modern works on America, for
which I may refer to Hanisse, Cabot, p. 236; Kohl, Discovery of Maine, p. 226;
and Winsor, Critical History."
A reproduction is in Kohl Collection, no. 66.

"The original was made for Ramusio by Gastaldi (about 1550) from material
gathered by Oviedo, and sent to Ramusio by the Florentine Hieronimo Fra-
castoro. It is called: " Universale della parte del mondo nuovamente ritro-
vata." Ramusio dates the introduction to this volume in 1553, which may per-
haps indicate the date of the map; and the material upon which it was founded
would seem to include results of Cabrillo's explorations on the CaUfornia coast
in 1.542^3.

The maps of the new world, both in this edition, and in that of 1565, are:
1, New world; 2, Temistitan (Mexico); 3, Cusco in Peru; 4, New France and
Newfoundland; 5, east part of Brazil; 6, part of America; 7, Taprobano;
8, Hochelaga, — a bird's-eye view of an Indian camp." Consult Winsor's descrip-

Note. — An original copy of this map is in the Library of Congress copy of the
rare atlas known as Lafreri's Atlas, the title of which is mentioned above. A
full description of this copy will be given in the supplement to Phillips' List
of Geographical Atlases. The title-page of this atlas is reproduced as a title for
Nordenskiold's Facsimile-atlas, from which work the following is taken. He
also gives a full table of contents with description of the various maps:
"The rich border, surrounding this title, of which a facsimile is given on the
title of the present work, is interesting, because it is the first instance of Atlas
supporting the earth globe being used in print, as a symbol for a collection of
maps. Neither the year of printingnor the name of the publisher are mentioned.
But the engraved title is probably the work of Antonio or Antoine Lafreri,
a French artist who, together with his uncle Duchet, founded a celebrated
atelier for copper-engraving at Rome in 1540. This atlas is therefore generally
cited under the name of Lafreri's Atlas or the Roman Atlas.
"Many of the maps were engraved in Rome by Lafreri or Duchet, but notwith-
standing the express statement on the title 'Stampate con studio et diligenza in
Roma,' the majority of them were printed in Venice or elsewhere in Italy.
The unfini.fhed state of several of the maps, their curious mounting, difference
in size etc., seem to indicate that we here only have to deal with a collection
of the necessary material tor a work resembling that of Ortelius, which Lafreri
or some other geographer or editor intended to i)ublish at Rome, and for which
he perhaps had bought convenient plates from different Italian engravers.
"Such an intention, if it ever existed, was never realized. But this collection
was the cause that a number of maps were saved from destruction, of which
probably no traces would otherwise have been found in literature. Wc here
get an insight into the high development of cartography and of the industry
of map-printing in Italy in the middle of the 16th century.
"This collection is seldom mentioned in geographical literature. For example
it is never alluded to by Lelewel, Humboldt, Peschel, Vivien de St. Martin,
Ruge, Breusing. Probably only a very limited number of copies were orig-
inally issued, and at present this atlas is one of the greatest rarities in carto-
graphical literature. Hence a notable difference exists as to the contents of
different copies. The following catalogue of the maps in this collection may,
therefore, be of use to students of the history of cartography. It is founded on

two copies, of which one belongs to the library of CoUegio Romano, the other
to my private collection. Of the former a detailed description is given in
Carlo Castellani's Calalogo ragionato delle opere geografiche a strimpa che si
cotiscnano nella biblioteca del Collegio Romano, Roma 1S7G."
In Uordenskiold's description, the map mentioned in the title is numbered
102.

which a facsimile was made in the Nar. and Crit. Uist. Am^ica, vol. ritt.
"The map has an Italian inscription, which is to this effect: 'I met some

Note. — "Prof. Markgraf and Dr. A. Ileyer have lately discovered, in the town-
library at Breslau, some very important maps of Gerard Mercator, viz.:
1. A copy of his large map on increasing cylindrical projection of 1569; 2. Ills
large map of Europe of 1554; 3. His Angliae, Scotiae et Hibemiae nova descrip-
tio of 1564. Of these maps, 2 and 3 have hitherto been regarded as lost, and of
1 only a single copy, preserved at the Biblioth^que Nationale in Paris, was
known (A. Heyer: Drei Mercator Karten in der Breslauer stadtbibliothek; Zeit-
schri/t fiir wissenscha/tlicher geographic vii, p. 379, Weimar 18S9) The descrip-
tion by Dr. Heyer confirms my supposition that Mercator never published any
maps drawn on an unmodified intersecting conical projection." Consult Nor-
denskiold's Facsimile-atlas, p. 136.

"About 15 years ago the following three works of Mercator were found in the city
library of Breslau: a map of Europe, 155-1; a map of the British Isles, 1564;
and a map of the world, 1569. The first recognition of the scientific value of
these maps was made by their discoverer Alfons Heyer (Zeit. f. wiss. geog. 1890)
Facsimiles of these maps were published by the " Gessellschaft fiir Erdkunde
zu Berlin." Of these three maps, the most important for the history of cart-
ography is that dated 1569, entitled: "Descriptio orbis terrae ad usum navi-
gantium"; it was the first map constructed by Mercator according to the pro-
jection bearing his name. Another copy of this map is in the Biblioth&que
Nationale at Paris; it has been reproduced by Lelewel, Jomard and by Daly (Jo.
am. geog. soc. 1879) L. Karth here tells of the existence of a third copy of

THE LOWER Y COLLECTION 71

this rare map, found in the library of the castle of Harff on the Erft, in
Germany.

" Amoung the valuable books of this library, there is another work of Mercator,
a beautifully colored copy of the 'Tabulae geographicae CI. Ptolemaei,'
published in Cologne in 1-578. Mercator added to this copy a written dedication
to the high-bailiff of Jiilich, Werner v. Gymnich. This dedication dated 'Van
Duisburg, den 14 Julii anno 1578,' is here reprinted in the original dutch,
followed by a german translation."

Karten und Globen: auch die Kopien und Nachbildungen der karten Merca-
tors werden erwiihrit. Die S. 54. angesprochene Aneicht, dass die Weltkarte
des Ortelius nicht eine Nachahmung der 1569 erschienenen Weltkarte Mercators
eel, teile ich nicht. Mercator arbeitete stets schopferisch, Ortelius hat, wenn
ihm nicht Originalarbeiten zugeschikt wurden, nur kopiert. Daher verstehe
ich auch den Satz nicht:"' 'Lea deux g&graphes ont probablement travaiI16
d'apres un meme modele.' Nach genauer Aufzahlung aller ausgaben von
Mercators Atlas, die bis 1640 laufen, wo auch die letzten Originalkarten des
Meisters verschwanden, wird noch die interessante Mitteilung gemacht, dass
1637 der Text Mercators auch ins Russische ubereetzt worden ist. Es gibt

"Est ist sehr ruhmlich, dassder Verf. esuntemommen hat, uberallnach bisher
noch unbekannten Schfiften, Briefen &c. Mercators zu forschen. Sieben-
undzwanzig Briefe waren bereits veroffentlicht, und Ortroy beschenkt uns
hier mit weiteren vier, von denen der zweite und dritte fiir die Person des
grossen Kartographen eine besondere Wichtigkeit haben. Der zweite Brief
an den Arzt Zwinger (1533-1538) enthiilt die Mitteilung, dass Mercator ein
Schiller seines Landsmannes Gemma Phrisius gewesen ist, auf dessen Rat
privatim das Elementale geometrium des Joh. Vogelin studiert und sich dann
mit dem Euclid beschiiftigt hat. Im dritten Briefe an den Prediger Haller in
Ziirich (tl601) meldet er genau Tag und Stunde derGeburt, wobeidie Angabeu
der Eltem nicht iibereinstimmem. Nach der miindlichen Ijberlieferung
seiner Mutter war er am 12. Marz 1512 mane hora sexta geboren. Dagegen hat
sein Vater, der die Geburt aller seiner kinder genau verzeichnete, geschrieben:
5 Marz 1512, dies Veneris (das ware der 12. Marz auch) mane hora quinta. Die
Angabe des Vaters muss als zuverliissiger gelten und ist auch stets daf iir ange-
sehen. Dann aber ftigt Mercator noch hinzu, er sei geboren . . . "Rupel-
mondae in Flandria, quo recenter parentes mei ex terra Juliacensi, oppidullo
Gangelt commigrai-unt." Gangelt ist ein Marktflecken unweit der niederland-
ischen Grenze, nordwestlich von Jiilich. Darf man nach diesser bcstimmten
Angabe noch in Zweifel sein, Mercator einen Deutschen zu nennen, der in reif-
eren Jahren in sein Heimatland zuriickkehrte und seine bedeutendsten Werke
in Duisburg schuf?" Review by S. Ruge in Petermanns mitteilungen 1900.

Nordenskiold, in his Facsimile-atlas, describes his "Life," " Theatriiin,"

Various references are also made in his Peripltis.

Henry Hallam in his Literature of Europe, v. 2, p. 492, makes this criticism
of Ortelius — ''Ortelius, in his ' Theatrum orbis terrarum, ' gives a list of about one
hundred and fifty geographical treatises, most of them subsequent to 1560. His
own work is the first general atlas since the revival of letters, and has been justly
reckoned to make an epoch in geography, being the basis of all collections of
maps since formed, and deserving, it is aaid, even yet to be consulted, not-
withstanding the vast progress of our knowledge of the earth."

It is accompanied by the statement that "This map, which first appeared in
the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum of Abraham Ortelius, Antwerp, 1570, was
inserted in the first edition of the Principall Navigations, 1589. It is referred
to by Hakluyt in the preface (p. xxx) "as one of the best generall mappes
of the world. " The map here reproduced in facsimile is taken from the original
in the first edition of the Principall Navigations."

This list with various additions appears in only the latin editions of the Thea-

In the first edition of 1570, it contained 87 names, and in the 2nd of the same

At the head of each letter is an english summary of contents.
"This monumental volume is creditable to the zeal and industry of the editor
and the enterprise of the publishers. Abraham Ortelius did a great deal in his
time for geography and cartography, and the correspondence in this volume
contains much that will be useful to the student of the progress of geography,
including aa it does information on the maps with which Ortelius and his
friends (among whom were Hakluyt, Mercator, and Humphrey Lhuyd) were
dealing at various times, and the material on which their construction was
based. The collection consists of (1) Letters written by Abraham Ortelius
(b. 1528, d. 1598) to his learned friends and patrons; (2) Letters written by the
latter to Ortelius; (3) Letters written to the nephew of Ortelius, Jacobus
Colius (Cole), a learned merchant of London: (4) A few letters and documents
which, probably, had come into the hands of Ortelius or his nephew, as col-
lectors of autographs and other literary records. There are 376 documents
altogether, mostly in Latin, but many of them in Dutch. The collection
embraces the years 1524 to 1628. The originals, from which the present texts are
printed, belong to the Dutch church, Austin Friars, London, which has, per-
haps, been in possession of them since the year 1628. Mr. Hessels gives a
history of the letters up to the date of their coming into his hands for the pur-
pose of preparing them for the press. In his introduction, he gives a sketch of
the life of Ortelius, with a bibliography of the editions of the Theatrum, a list
of maps in that collection, and other useful information. Prefixed to each
letter is a more or less detailed sjmopsis of the contents in English. There are

A map of the west coast of Mexico — Continued.

"Eighteen very curious Geographical charts, elegantly drawn on vellura, in
colours and gilding, by John Martines ot Messina, in the year 1578. Chart 2d
is subscribed, "Joan Martines en Messina 1618," but the two middle figures have
evidently been altered; and the charts are clearly by the same hand as those
in no. 5489, where the date in the original writing is 1578. The names are
marked in Italian."

This title ia followed by a list of 18 maps, nos. 10-15 inclusive relating to
America.

A reproduction of map no. 2 of this atlas is in the Kohl Collection, no. 75. The
border ms. text is as follows:

"This is a copy of a map of the world, made in the year 1578 by J. Martines,
which is preserved in the British Museum.

" Martines seems to have been by birth a Spaniard, who lived in Messina, from
which place many of hia maps are dated. His maps are therefore generally
written in the Italian language.

"The present map is curious, because it is one of the oldest maps, which we can
produce, on which the division of the great parts of the rrorld in txoo equal hemi-
spheres and planiglobes has been carried out thus, as it became customary and
usual afterwards. We see here two planiglobes put aside of each other.
The one contains the whole Old World, and the other the whole New World.
Only the Northeastern Peninsula of Asia is still included into the circle of the
New World. Both hemispheres are separated in the line of the first meridian,
which runs through the isle of Ferro.

" In olden times, all what was known of the world had been generally included
in a square or a circle or an ellipse. At the first time of the discovery of America,
also those parts of this continent which became known, were included in that
square, circle or ellipse, and appeared at the western end of it. Sometimes to
the whole was also given the form of a heart or another form.
"The separation in two hemispheres did begin only after 1530, when after the
navigations of Magellans and others the great Pacific gulf between America
and Asia became better measured in its magnitude. Then the chartographers
commenced to depict sometimes America for herself on separate sheets. Plani-
globes have been made long before 1578. But still in this year, in which our
map was made, [it] is rare, to see the two hemispheres divided and separated
in that manner, in which we see it here.

" As the principal features of the representation of America on our map, may be
pointed out the following:
"America is an island all round.

" It is separated from Asia by the Strait of Anion. It is also circuranavigable in
the North.

"No Greenland appears on the map. But the Arctic country 'Grutlandia'
which surrounds the pole, seems to take its place.

"The St. Laurence and Hudson River are united to one great crooked channel
and New England is made to be an island.

"California is a peninsula, and 'Giapan' (Japan) still very near to it. The
largest name in North America is 'Nova Spagna'; in South America, 'Peru.'
The South Sea is called: 'Mare del Sur.

" But the name ' mare oceano ' (the Ocean Sea) stands 5 or 6 times in the Atlantic
and Indian Ocean, and runs roimd the whole of the Old World. The author
Martines seems to claim by thia the right of the ancient 'Oceanus,' which on
the old maps surrounded in a circle the whole Old World.
" Some names, which are perhaps not understandable at once, are the following:
'nova fia,cia'=New France.

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 81

' vBcilaos '=Baccaiao3.

'capaschi'=probably corrupted from one of De Soto's geographical

names 'Capachiquo.'

'belmuda'=the BermiKlas.

'quito'= thrown into the center of South America.

'cusco,' transported as far South as the tropic of Capricorn.
"The 'tiera di fuego' (Fireland) is on the original quite colored in tier}- red, as
it is often done on old maps."

The description of the Kohl ColUction, by Justin Winaor, has the following
items relating to Martines's maps:

"Item 6S. "The original is a planisphere from a MS. atlas, whose names are
mostly Italian with some Spanish ones, which formerly belonged to the Duke
de Cassano Serra, and is now in the British Museum, Kohl finds its American
portion to correspond closely with a map of Joannes Marlines of 1578 in the
British Museum, and supposes this to be by him also. The later map has
meridians of longitude, which this has not. South America is called ' Peru ' in
this map, but 'America' in the later one. The general outUne of the new
world resembles that of Porccachi's maps. The huge antarctic continent so
common in maps of this time, is shown."

"Item 75. 'A MS. map in the British Museum, marked: 'Joan. Martines en
Messina, aiii, 1-578.' It is of a double hemispherical projection, and in out-
line America is of the Ortelius type, though verj' different in the region of
the St. Lawrence. The British Museum Catalogue of MS. 7naps, i, p. 29, shows
the Martines atlas to contain various American maps: 1, the world; 2, the two
hemispheres; 3, the world in gores; 10, west coast of America; 11, coast of
Mexico; 12, 13, South America; 14, Gulf of Mexico; 15, part of east coast of North
America."

"Item 1S6. A. D. J57S. From Florida to 45° N., by Martines.
"From a MS. atlas (no. 15) in the British Museum. Kohl remarks on its
inferiority to Ribero's map (1529) and says that the Spanish maps degenerated
for a long time after Ribero. The country is called 'La Florida.' See sketch
in Nar. and Crit. Hht. America, n, 229."
"Item 187. A. D. 1578. East Coast by Marlines.

"A very inaccurate sketch of the coast from Labrador to the Gulf of Mexico, in
which the peninsula of Florida and the gulf of St. Lawrence are only recogniz-
able. The original belongs to a MS. atlas by Joan Martines in the British Mu-
seum. The main is called 'Nova Spagna.' The St. Lawrence river and the
Hudson seem to unite and form a channel, making Xew England an island.
There is a sketch of it in the Nar. and Crit. Hist. America, iv, 97."
"Item 260. A. D. 1.578. The Antilles by Martines.

"It shows the Atlantic coast from 45° north to 3° south latitude. From the
Martines Atlas of 1578, in the British Museum. The latitudes are approximately
correct; but the longitudes are much out of the way, being sketched east and
west too far. It is sketched in the A'ar. and Crit. Hist. America, n, p. 229."
"Item 280. A. D. 1578. California by Martines." This is a reproduction of
the map no. 10, first described in the title.

"It shows the coast from 10° to 55° north, with 'Giapan' and a part of the
Asiatic coast. It is from the Martines Atlas in the British Museum, made
between 1568 and 1578, at Messina, though Martines seems to have been a
Spaniard. The outline of the gulf of California is much less accurate than in
earlier maps. This a different atlas from the one of 155-(?) mentioned ante
under A. D. 1558. A sketch of the Central America coast of the 1578 atlas is
given in the M'ar. and Crit. Hist. America, ii, p. 229."

Nordenskiold, in his Periplus, p. 68, says:

"Of this draughtsman we possess severaf works, executed between 1564 and
1586 (Uzielli and-Amat di S. Filippo. n, pp. 143-154, 283) Most of them
seem to include only the territory of the normal-portolano, but some of the maps
by Martines kept in the British Museum also refer to the newly discovered
countries. This is especially the case with a larger atla.s of 18 maps, dating,
though somewhat uncertainly, from 1578. To judge from Santarem's repro-
duction in colour-printing of the map of the west coast of Africa in Martines'
atlas of 1567, his portolanos are executed with great care and splendour of
colour."

Note. — "Among the portolan-draughtsmen of this period the most prolific were
the Oliva family. Probably Oliva is only an Italian form of Olives. If so,
the Majorcan family of map-di-aughtemen, that executed most of their works at
Messina during the 16th. century, would still during the 17th have continued the
firm in the same town under the name of Oliva. The Christian names Johannes
(Giovanni, Jaume) and Bartolomeo are common to both. By Johannes Oliva
there are in U.-A.'s list about 10 charts from 1587 to 1622 most of them covering
the whole or part of the field of the normal-portolano. Further there are men-
tioned in U.-A., 4 charts by Franciscus Oliva from 1594 to 1659, all comprising
the district of the normal-portolano; an atlas by Salvator Oliva dated 1620,
consisting of 7 maps, most of them including extra-European countries, as well
as a typical portolano (3 maps), dated 1631; by Brascto Olivo (Oliva?) a
typical portolano of 1633: by Placidus Oliva (or Placidus C'aloiro et Olh'a)
12 charts, drawn between 1615 and 1653, all of the district of the normal-
portolano, so far as I have been able to judge from the descriptions. A work by
Gio. Batt. ("aloiro et Oliva is dated 1673. Not one of the charts by the
Oliva firm can have been of any importance in the development of geography
or cartography." Consult Nordenskiold, Periplus, p. 69.

The general map is called "Typus orbis terrarum." It is inscribed "Joannes
Oliva fecit in civitate Marsilliie, Ano 1613." It has most of the points of
Ilakluyt's map; but gives South America better. It has the usual arctic Lslands
and antarctic continent of this period. The language of its names is Italian,
occasionally Latin. The Catalogue of MS. maps, Brit. Mus., 1844, i, 33, shows
this portolano to contain maps of the east coast of North America, of the West
Indies, and of South America.

"This is an original account in Latin of Drake's expedition from 1585 to 1586,

during which he captured and plundered Cartagena and other towns, burned

forts San Antonio and St. Augustine. He then visited Roanoke Island, the

site of Raleigh's Colony in Virginia, and carried the survivors back to England.

The Lenox Library has two copies, one of which, with a different vignette,

composed of type-ornaments, on the title-page, has the maps colored by hand,

laid in.

"The work usually has four large folding maps, but we know of no other copy

of this edition which has the slips of English letter-press pasted at the foot. It is

not unlikely that these slips were printed for A Summarie and True Discourse of

Sir Francis Drakes West Indian Voyage, London, 1589, copies of which, in the

Huth Library and British Museum, have these same maps with the English

slips."

Note. — "On Zalterius' map of- North America, Bering's Strait is denoted by
the name Streto de Anian. This name plays a great part in the literature of
itoaginar)' geographical discoveries rising out of a memorandum of the Spanish
na\-igator and adventurer Maldonado (died 1625) to the Spanish government
about the discovery of the strait of Anian, 'made by me. Captain Lorenzo
Ferrer Maldonado, in the year 15SS.' The account, which has been translated
and published in Italian and French by Carlo Amoretti, and in English by
JoHM Barrow, is a pure fiction, which, however, attracted a great deal of atten-
tion in its time, since it was thought to be a proof of the possibility of the north-
west passage. A special expedition even was sent from Spain in order to con-
firm the concocted statements. It may therefore be of interest to point out
that Maldonado' s map of the Anian Strait forms a copy, dravm on a large scale
and in altered style, of the map of the strait on Zalterius' map of 1566." Consult
Nordenskiold, Periplus, p. 100.

For a further and exhaustive study of Maldonado and the Anian Straits see
pp. 193-194 of the same work.

"Other buccaneer expeditions tried their luck by this same route, and probably
some of them penetrated, certainly not to Bering's straits but perhaps as far as
to the ^'ancouver archipelago, where the large islands along the coast were
confounded with the continent of Asia, in the same way as Company Land
(Urup) on the Asiatic side was confounded with the American mainland by the
Dutch explorers, to the no small trouble of cartographei-s. It was now believed
that the great problem was solved. The news which could not be kept a perfect
secret, gave rise to the introduction of the straits of Anian in maps of the latter
part of the 16th centurj-, to the Maldonado deception and the Fuca myth.
The first dated map, on which the Anian straits is found, is one by Bologninus
Zalterius engraved in 'N'enice in 1566 (FA, fig. 81) The unusual name here
given to Xorth America, ' Xova Franza, ' renders it probable that it was executed
to the order of the same celebrated French geogi-apher, Nicolas Nicolay, for
whom some years pre^•iously Forlani of A'enice had executed a map of the
Atlantic (N. pi. xxvii) It is possible that the mapping of the narrow strait
between the Old and New Continents was founded on accounts given by the
natives to the European free-booters or himters who ventured among the Indian
tribes of the northern part of North America. Similar accounts among the
savages in the tracts north and west of Virginia are mentioned, for instance in
PuRCHAS, iii, p. 849. The strait is mapped as a long, large inlet in Cornelius
DE JuDAEis' map of the world (FA, pi. xlviii) and in much the same manner
under the name of 'Stretto de Jezo,' in Dudley's Arcano del Mare. Fig. 96
shows the notion entertained in 1652 by the celebrated French geographer
Nicolas Sanson d'Abbe\ille concerning the geography of these regions. He
had as yet no knowledge of the Dutch exploring expeditions sent out by Van
Dieman to these parts. On Quad's map of the world entered in Europse
descriptio, Coloniae 1594, and in Fasciculus Geographicus 1608 (FA, pi. xlix
the strait is called 'El streto de Amar' (Amur) whereas the name 'Anian
regnum' is retained for the land east of the strait. So far as I know this name
occurs for the first time as the designation of a pro^-ince (Ania Pro.) on Gastaldi's
large map of Asia of the year 1561 (Terza parte dell' Asia, N. T. \vi) It is
accompanied by a number of legends borrowed from the tales of the A'enetians
who went to central Asia.

Maldonado, Lorenzo Ferrer, d. 1625 — Continued.

"Maldoiiado's mapping of the Anian Straits, as also a translation of the account
of his voyage, are reproduced by Carlo Amoretti ( Vmggio del Mare Atlantico al
Padfico per la via del Nord-Oiisl etc. fallodal Capilano Lorenzo Ferrer M aldonado
I'anno mdlxxxviii, Milano 1811) The same work was published in a French
translation, 'Plaisance' 1812. An English translation of the text, as well
as the reproduction of the accompanying drawings, was given by John Bar-
row {A chronologial history of voyages into the Arctic regions, London 1818)
Probably Maldonado copied on an increased scale the same original which was
used for Zalterius' map. The whole of the account given by the far-famed
adventurer is in other respects an ob\'ious fiction. This however cannot be
the case with the voyages along the north-western coast of America, which
were undertaken by a Greek, Juan de Fuca, or, as his real name is, Apostolos
Valerianos. During his homeward voyage from his forty-years' sojoiu-n as a
seaman in the Spanish Indies, Fuca passed through Venice in 1596 and there
met the experienced English merchant Michael Loch. To him among others
he related a voyage which he had undertaken on behalf of the viceroy of Mexico
in 1592, during which he had discovered the much sought-for stiait, which was
supposed to lead from the north part of the Pacific to the North Polar Sea.
He said that it was completely free from ice and therefore a very convenient
route from England to the Moluccas. The account gave rise to various writings,
and was finally printed in Purchas' His Pilgrimes, iii, London 1625, chapter xx,
p. 849. Fuca had obviously reached the strait which still bears his name south
of Vancouver's Island, and mistaken it for the passage between the two oceans
of the world. Fuca's account afterwards caused many expeditions to be sent
along the north-west coast of America. So late as 1792 a Spanish expedition was
despatched to explore the Fuca Straits; but it was not till Vancouver's expedi-
tion 1791-05 that the archipelago in rpiestion was mapped and the discovery
of Fuca reduced to its proper dimensions."

John Gilmary Shea in an article entitled Ancient Florida published in Win-

Lemoyne de Morgues, an artist accompanying Laudonni&re, wrote some years

later an account, and made maps and drawings, with notes describing them.

De Bry made a visit to London in 1587 to see Lemoyne, who was then in

Raleigh's service; but Lemoyne resisted all pursuasions to part with his

papers. After Lemoyne's death De Bry bought them of his widow (1588)

and published them in 1591, in the second part of his Grands voyages, as Brevis

narratio."

As this expedition was made in 1564 this map would possibly have served a

better purpose to have been put under that date in this description.

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 91

The following interesting manuscript comment is on the border of the Kohl
Collection map, no. 185:

' ' This is a copy of the celebrated map of Florida, which De Bry has published in
his work entitled: ' Bre%'i3 Narratio eorum quae in Floridae Americae provincia
Gallis acciderunt etc. Francofurti Anno mdxci.' (A short narration of what
happened to the Frenchmen in Florida etc. Francfurt in the year 1591)
"The map has the following title, translated into English: A new and exact
description of Florida, a province of America, by James Le Moyne, called de
Jforgues, who accompanied Laudoniere at the second French expedition to
that pro\-ince, and who with the aid of some soldiers to protect him against
dangers, explored the interior as well as the maritime parts of that region, most
industriously and measured it verj' exactly, obserWng also the distances of the
single rivers from each other, as he showed it himself after his return to Charles
IX, King of France.

" De Brj' says, that he bought the map with the report and other sketches of
Le MojTie from his widow in England.

"It is the most remarkable and important map, which, so far as we know of, has
been preserved to us among the maps, composed in the 16th century of that
part of the East-Coast, which lies between Cape Hatteras and Cape Florida.
The authority and influence of this map reaches as far down as the latter half of
the 17th centur>-, until the time of the first English plantations in Carolina.
It commences in the South with Cuba, 'Promentorium Floridae ' and ends
in the North with: 'Promentorium Terra falg.' (Cape Trafalgar) and in the
West with about the mouth of the Mississippi.

"The French explorations and observations did not go beyond the River Jordan
(Charlestown harbour) and beyond Cape St. Roman. Le Moj-ne took all the
coast between River Jordan and Cape Trafalgar from Spanish maps, which is
sufficiently indicated by the old Spanish names, which he has all along this Coast:
'The fl: Siceum' (Rio seco) 'Portus Principis' (Puerto del Principe) etc., etc.
The same may be said of that piece of the map, which lies to the South of Cape
Caiiaveral. The French na\'igators coasted here only along the shore without
making particular observations. Their explorations and landings commenced
from a point a little South of St. Augustine harbour and went not quite as far
North as Rio Jordan.

" It is impossilbe for us to analyze here the map in detail. We can only point
out the most striking featin-es and wiU show them from West to East.
'Sinus Morquel' (the Bay Morquel) corrupted for 'the Bay of Miruelo'=our
Apelachee Bay.

'Sinus Joannis Ponce' (Bay of John Ponce de Leon)=Tampa-Bay.
'Prom: Floridae' (Cape Florida) in its true Latitude.

'F. Delphinum' (Delphin river)=Augustine harbour. 'F. May' (May river)=
St . John's river, explored and surveyed by Laudonnifere and his men in 1565, and
very well laid dovm on ow map as coming out from a Southern lake as the river
really does.

'Portus Regalis'=Port Royal, with the first French fort, built by Ribault in
1562 and called Charlefort.

"It is impossible to identify the rivers named 'Seine,' 'Somme,' 'Loire,' etc.,
between Port Royal and May River. 'Fl. Jordanis' (Jordan river)^ur Port
of Charlestown.

'Prom. Terra falgu': (Cape Trafalgar )^our Cape Fear.

"The great Lake in the North is perhaps an Indian tradition brought down from
the Lakes of Canada.

' ' Though De Br>- as I said published this map in the year 1591 still it does not ap-
pear, that the geographers and mapmakers made at once an extensive use of it.

raphers and map engravers of the 50 years, subsequent to De Bry's publication
copied the map in their great works. But we find in the same period many
other great maps of America, which do not shoiv the slightest acquaintaince with
this map. The Spaniards especially ignored it completely, though they had
scarcely anything better to show, so far as they at least pleased to make the
world acquainted with their productions.

"Nay more, those, which copied the map of Le Moyne, copied it by and by
quite badly and disfigured it by degrees very much, as we will show hereafter
on subsequent maps."

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 93

"Mr. n. J. Pfimgst, F. S. A., has lately acquired an interesting and most artistic
ivory globe of 1593 (formerly the property of the Kemponaer family of Leeu-
warden\ executed by Antonio Spano, and di(li< aliil to the Infant Philip,
afterwards Philip in. On the Unknown Soutlurn ( > lUiiicnt it bears the arms
of Spain; above the Spanish arms is the inscription I'riunpi Philip. Philip, ii.
Bisp. Indiar. Neap. c. Siciliae Cathol. Regis Filio. Below the Circulus Antarcli-
cus is a salutation addressed to the same prince: Princepsfelieissime totus Orbis ad
se ffuhcrnandum te vocal el expcctal. Close to the south pole is the signature Anlo-
nius Spano tropiensis fedl, 1593, thus assigning the work to the sculptor of
Tropea (near Naples), who was, in 1595, granted a pension of 100 ducats by his
master and patron Philip n. This pension Spano seems to have enjoyed down
to his death at Madrid in 1615; it was continued to his son Francisco Spano by
Philip III.

"This globe is hollow, and consists of two parts (N. and S.) which fit together,
and are pierced by small holes at the two extremities. It has been suggested
that it was intended to serve as a scent box, but it was perhaps rather meant
to hold string. Its size is diminutive; in diameter it meastu-es 81 millimetres,
or 3J inches. Its execution is admirably clear and fine, and even its minutest
legends can be easily read with a magnifier. Frederick Muller, of Amsterdam,
in whose possession it has lately been, describes it in his catalogue as giving
the 'impression of the highest point of geographical science then attained,' but
this is not always the case. Everything, indeed, points to its being primarily
a work of art.

" It may be of interest to note the chief peculiarities of this beautiful little curio,
whose world-conceptions are extremely curiotis and can not easily be assigned
to any known tj'pe . . .

"In America, the whole continent {America sive India nova) is given as a vast
land-mass, wholly detached from Asia; the coast line of the northern part is
far better than that of the southern, paradoxical as that may seem. The St.
Lawrence is clearly indicated, but there is no sign of the lakes from which it
springs. Peru is placed in the very middle of the South American continent;
the Amazon is well conceived, but the Maranon (Maragno) is made wholly
distinct; the Peru\dan and Chilian coast-line is extraordinarily erratic."

but J. Tattonus, the Ipttor J being printed in script. Three map makers
named Tattonus, making maps relating to America about the same time, are
noted in various publications.

In the work entitled Fronlih-es enire k Brcsil et la Guyane Franfaisc. Alias:
1899-1900, described in Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 27^0,
are two maps by Gabriel Tatton, nos. 50 and 54; the first from a ms. in
the National library at Florence, the second, from a ms. in the British
Museum. Both of these maps relate to the northern part of South America.
In no. 54, the statement is made that this "Carte manuscrite sur parchemin,
dessinee d'aprh les documents fournis par Robert Harcourt et ses capitaines qui
venaient de /aire V exploration des cdtes de la Guyane et de plusieurs rivOres parmi
lesquelles I'Araguary."

In Uzielli and Amat di S. Filippo, Stv/ii e bioliografid sulla storia della geografia
in Italia, p. 269, title 453, is a description of the map by "Gabriele Tatton
inglese" in the Florence National library entitled : " Carta nauticamembr . . .
Comprende: Voceano Atlantico, parte delle hole britanniche, dclla Francia, della
Spagna e del continente africano, l' America meridionale al di qua della linea, il
golfo del Messico, quello della Virginia, di Noremberga e della Nova Francia fino
alS7° dilat. N."

Title no. 103 in this list refers to a map of M. Tattonus, for a description of
which see that title.

The maps by J. and M. Tattonus seem to have been mostly engraved by Benja-
min Wright. In Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 3061, is a description
of Magini's Atlas of Italy, to which is attached the following note:
Maps nos. 2, 30-32, 48, 50, 57-58, were engraved by Benjamin Wright, a dis-
tinguished engraver, living in the beginning of the seventeenth century,
and bear his initials. His signatiu-e is "Benjamin Wright, Londinensis,
Anglus." He lived long in Mantua, entertained by the cardinal Ferdinando
Gonzaga, whom he accompanied to Rome. Later, we find him in Bologna,
where he engraved for dr. Magini the copper plates of his Italia."
The Library of Congress also contains the following map engraved by Wright:
"Nona el recetcrraumetregnorum Calif ornix . , . delineatio,a M. Tattonus . . .
edita.Senjamin Wright, anglus cxlator, anP 1600 [and] 1616." See title 103.
Also a facsimile of Wright's map of New France, about 1608, in "Art in
England . . . Edited by Charles Holme, 1908."

Some maps of this same engraver are found in the edition of 1599 of Barent
Langenes, Caert-lhresoor, and reprinted in later editions.

A most interesting account of Benjamin Wright is found in tRe work of Colvin,
above quoted, from which this notice is taken, pages 32-33:
"In later years Benjamin was a traveller. His other known work was all done
for foreign publishers, namely, small maps of Java, Sumatra, Madagascar, and
St. Helena, copied from the Caert-Thresor of van Langeren, Amsterdam, 1599,
for a French translation published also at Amsterdam in 1G02; half a score
similar small maps and views illustrating the travels of explorers wlio set out
from the port of Amsterdam in Rerum et urbis Amstelodamensium Hisloria of J. I.
Pontanus, IGll (dutch ed., 1614) and lastly seven fine richly-embellished and
darkly-printed maps of the Riviera di Ponente and the kingdom of Naples
engraved at Bologna in 1613 and published in the Italia of Magini in 1620.
"In Italy, Wright is said to have enjoyed the protection of Cardinal Ferdinando
Gonzaga, whom he accompanied to Rome. Until lately the above was all that
could have been said about him ; but while this volume w;is passing through the
press three undescribed maps by him have been discovered and purchased by
the Trustees of the British Museum. One is of the Pacific, inscribed within an

elaborate strap-work cartouche. ' Maris Pacific! | quod vulgo mar del zur nomi-
nant | cum regionibus circumiarcnlibxis,insulisqjineodcm passi | Sparsis,nouissima
descriptio, J. Tattonus Auct. 1600 | Benjamin Wright Anglus coelator' (the date
is e\'idently that of the dramug, not of the engraving): a second of Mexico,
Central America and the Caribbean sea similarly signed by the engraver but
Avithout name of draughtsman and dated 1600: these are a pair (16| in. high by
21 J in. wide) The third is of the Atlantic, with the coasts of New France,
Labrador, Greenland and Western Europe, unsigned and of sUghtly different
dimensions, but identical in style and even more loaded with decorative
adjuncts, including an inset with a very spirited scene of whaling on the
coast of New France. Had I known it in time, I would have given this as
a specimen of Wright's style instead of the portion of the map of Naples which
appears below as fig. 15.

"Unluckily the most interesting of all the maps drawn and engraved in England
in the reign of Elizabeth is anonymous. This is the famous chart or 'hydro-
graphical description ' of the world of which Shakespeare makes mention in
Tuel/th Night as 'the new map with the augmentation of the Indies,' and which
has been proved from internal evidence to have been prepared by the combined
skill of the best geographers and hydrographers of the time, Richard Hakluyt,
Emerie Molyneux, and Edward Wright (the mathematician and inventor of the
new and perfected method of projection) and to have pubUshed in 1599 or ICOO,
that is to say a year more or less before Twelfth Night was first produced in the
hall of the Middle Temple. It is occasionally found bound up with the
amphfied three-volume edition of Hakluyt's Principall Narigatiom, 1598-1600.
Technically and decoratively, as a specimen of engraving, it is by no means so
pretty a piece of work as the world -maps of Jodocus Hondius presently to be men-
tioned, or as the local maps engraved by Ryther in the two preceding decades;
but for the purposes of geography and navigation it was far in advance of any
thing that had gone before, embodying the latest discoveries of John Davis in
his search for the north-west passage, of Wilhelm Barents in the region of Spitz-
bergen and Nova Zembla, and of Francisco de Gali on the passage of the Pacific
Ocean from China to CaUfomia. But here we are touching on matters beyond
our scope.''

which he gives, p. 125, among the first settlers of New Mexico, is the name of

Heman Martin. That Martinez was interested in this expedition is seen

from' the statement on the reverse of the map which reads:

A description of this map is given in Appendix FFof this work, pp. 464-466, as
follows:

" This map is anonymous, undated, and unaccompanied by data of any descrip-
tion.

" The coast names on the map, reading from east to west, are: s helena (Santa
Elena) ahoya. b de los baxos (Bahia de los Bajos) cofonufo. hospogahe
(Espogache of the Relations) asao. Guadalquini. Ballenas. S pedro (San

deniupa. M de carlos (Bahia de Carlos) b^ de tacabaga (Bahia de Tacabaga,
also written Tocobaga) henseilada de carlos. punta de apalahe (Punta de
Apalache)

" In the centre: lagunademeiymi. The islands are: bahama. mimeres. isia
decuba. havana. martires. tortugas. The inscription endorsed on the map,
and reproduced at the bottom of the copy in this volume, is: ' Planta de la
coeta de la florida y en que Paraje esta La LaGima Maymi y adonde se ha de
hacer el fuerte.'

" The map is no. 94 of Pedro Torre Lanzas, Mapas de Mexico y Florida, tomo
;., p. 71, where he dates it ' siglo 17 (?)'

"All of the names on this map are found either on earlier maps or in Relations
accessible to the writer prior to 1596 with the exception of ' hospogahe,' which
first appears under the form 'Espogache' in 1606 (in Marques's 'Relacion,'
Ruidiaz, La Florida, tomo ii., p. 506) and 'hensenada de niupa.' which does
not appear elsewhere.

" In 1595 Juan Maldonado Bamuevo, govemorof Havana, sent his nephew Juan
Maldonado to examine the coast from St. Augustine as far as the southern
extremity of the Florida Keys. In the 'Derrotero' of the expedition appears
for the lir.-!t time the Florida coast names 'jega' (Xega of that map) and 'Ijocas
de miguel de mora' (see Bamuevo's letter of July 6, 1595, with the annexed
'Derrotero.' Arch. gen. de Indias, Seville, MS., est. 54, caj. 1, leg. 15). At
about this date Juan de Posada, who had come to Florida in 1586, where
he had spent seven years (Letter of Albaro Flores, November 9, 1586, Direc. de
Hidrog., Madrid, Co?. Navarrete, tomo xxii., Doc.no. 98) wrote to the home
government ad%asing the dismantling of all of the forts in Florida, 'y que haga
hacer uno en la cabeza de los Martires' (see his imdated 'Relacidn,' Direc.
de hidrog., Madrid, Col. Navarrete, Doc. no. 31)

' ' In \dew of the fact that Posada was probably in Florida at the time of Maldona-
do's return from his expedition; that the location given the fort on the map
corresponds with the description in the 'Derrotero;' that these particular
legends are identical in both map and 'Derrotero,' and that the script used on
the map and in the endorsed title is of the period in which his letter was written,
it is not at all improbable that the map formed part of Posada's letter."

tography of the gulf of Mexico and adjacent parts, in his Narrative and critical

les plans de la parfie de la Floride colonis^e par les Franfais, le detroit de
Magellan, Cuba (dessinee sur le \\i par Gerard de Veer en 1601) la Havane,

de Salines en exploitation qui est la reduction d'un cartouche de la carte de
de Jonghe."

For a reproduction of the map by Clemendt de Jonghe, see title no. 89.
Marcel is evidently in error in stating that Gerrit, or sometimes called Gerard,
de Veer, is the author of the map of the strait of Magellan. Gerard de Veer is
identified with the map of Xew Zealand and the Arctic regions. He has con-
founded Gerard de Veer with Sebalt de Veer, known by the dutch as Weert or
Wert. See an extensive notice of this voyage by Charles de Brosses, in his
nistoire des navigations aux tares australes . . . Paris, 1756. v. 1, chapter 20,
pp. 274-294.

Armand Gaston Camus, Memoire sur la collection des grands et petits voyages, pp.
118-122, describes this voyage of 1 598 and gives this bibliographical information :
" Le voyage de Sebalt de Veer (qu'il ne faut pas confondre avec Gerard de Veer
dout il sera fait mention ailleurs) est imprime a la suite de I'histoire d'Acosta.
Je n"ai decouvert aucune autre Edition de ce voyage anterieiu'e a celle des infans
de Th6odore de Bry. La relation du voyage n'a pas ete redigee par Sebalt de
Veer, mais par un anonyme, qui declare I'avoir tiroe des joumaux du chirurgien
Jansz et des autres chefs. Les heritiers de de Bry y ont joint des estampes
qui sont les onze demieres de la collection rassemblee sous le titre d'Idaea vera,
etc. Hs les appellent elegantissimas figuras: c'est leur ou\Tage qu'ils peuvent
vanter; mais c'e^t rou\Tage d'eux seuls, et non celui du voyageur; ils ont
fait les dessins d'apres ses recits, et leur imagination a toujours confondu les
formes europeennes avec les formes sauvages. Les pinguLns de la vingt-
cinquieme classe sont assez mal representes; ils ont quatre doigts aux pieds,
ainsi que celui qui est sur la carte du detroit de Magellan, dont je parlerai tout-a-
I'heure. Par consequent ces oiseaux appartiennent a I'espece que Buffon a
nommee manchots, et non pas a celle a laquelle il a conserve le nom de pinguins
strictement pris. Independamment de ces estampes, il y a a la tete de la
relation une petite carte du detroit de Magellan, qui n'est pas dressee d'aprfes
des observations astronomiques, mais qui place sous les yeux a peu prfes la posi-
tion respective des Lieux dont il e?t parle dans la relation.
" Sebalt de Veer etoit capitaine d'un batiment faisant partie d'une fiotille de
cinq vaisseaux armes a Amsterdam, pour tenter une route aux Moluques par
le detroit de Magellan. Le 20 juin 1598, la flottille quitta les cotes de
Goer^e ..."

pp. 124-125:

' ' Sebastian Vizcaino's voyage along the Pacific coast of North America in 1602. —
Sebastian Vizcaino explored and surveyed the Pacific coast of North America
from Cape San Lucas to Cape Mendocino in 1602, Cabrillo having first sailed
along the same in 1539 (?) He prepared Reports and a map, notarial copies of
which were made in Mexico, Dec. 8th, 1603, and are now to be found in the
Archive General de Indias de Sevilla. These were utilized, and a reduced
copy of the original map on 36 sheets, published, by don M. F. de Navarrete in

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 107

his Atlas and Introduccion tx> the voyage of the Sutil y llexicana, Madrid, 1802,
a work of much interest to American geographers. The prefatory matter by
Navarrete is a complete history of discovery along this coast. (See Greenhow,
Memoir on the N. W. Coast of N. A., 1840, p. 131)

"The MS in Mexico seems to have disappeared. Torquemada, Monarchia
Indiana, Madrid, 1723, and ^'enegas, 1757, print a Relacion of the voyage,
which, according to Navarrete, p. Ixi, is the derrotero of the pilots only. Venegas
had a careful search made in the Secretaria del Consejo Supremo de las Indias,
but could not find the full narrative and map. An abridged narrative, from
Lorenzana, is given in the Boletin of the Mexican geographical society,
torn, v., 1857.

" Bumey copies the map given by Navarrete in his South sea voyages, vol. ii.,
1806. The mss in Se\alle, according to Navarrete, consist, i. of a vol. in fol.
of 114 leaves, containing the resolutions and declarations of the juntas y consejos
de mar y guerra, held by Vizcaino during the voyage, ii, a Relacion 6 diario,
in full detail of the voyage. lu, the derrotero or log-book of whole voyage made
in 1G02, by the cosmographo mayor Geronimo Martin Palacios, with the acuerdo or
approval of five pilots, and in the presence of the P. Fr. Antonio de la Ascension.
IV, thirty- two demonslraciones or maps of all coast reconnoitred, its ports
bays, &c., made pursuant to an order of the Viceroy by Enrico Martinez,
cosmdgrapho de S. J/, in New-Spain Navarrete copied all these and other docu-
ments relatmg to the same undertaking, which copy is probably now in the
Library of the Academy of History in Madrid. Navarrete defines the exact
location of the papers he copied as being in legajo 4 of the papers collected from
the house of the Secretary, Juan de Ciriza.

' ' The Relacion made by the Padre Fray Antonio de la Ascension, a Carmelite,
who accompanied the Expedition as Cosmographer, is given from a mss vol.
in the Biblioteca Nacional, J. 89, in the Documentos Ineditos, America y Oceania,
Vol. vm., 1867, pp. 539-574. Vizcaino's expedition of 1611, to Japan, in
which the Fray again accompanied him, is in the same volume, copied from
the same Ms collection as the first.

"With all this published information, with the Map by Vizcaino reproduced by
Navarrete and Bumey, we find in the Proceedings of the Am. Antiq. Soc. for
October 1873, that the Recording secretary, Mr. John D. Washburn and Mr.
John T. Doyle of San Francisco, consider Vizcaino's Reports as unfindable.
The Fray Ascension, Doc. Ined. Supra, p. 555, calls Monterey a/amoso puerto,
in 37 degrees, and adds that the vessels from the Philippines to New-Spain
made land there. P. 558, he says, we recognized, on our way to Cape Mendo-
cino, the Port of San Francisco, where in past times a ves.sel from China, that
came with orders to explore this coast, was lost, and I believe that at the
present time much wax and pottery (losaza) is there, which the vessel carried.
The first successful return voyage from the Philippines to New-Spain, after
several failures, was accomplished by Andres de I'rdaneta in 1566. However,
we shall speak of this na\igator, who in 1552 became an Augustine brother, in
another note."

panied by a brief description of the ports, neighboring country,
rivers, natives &c.

The maps accompany the "Relac? del idage y derrotero de las
naos que fueron al descubrim'." del puerto de Acap°? a cargo del
Oral Sebastian Bezcaino."

There is a copy of these maps and derrotero in the Acad, de la
Hist. Madrid. Col. Munoz Tomo 34, fols. 139-190, with a note on
fol. 191 by Munoz from which it appears that he obtained his copy
from a ms. copy of Fr. Antonio de la Ascension in Colegio Mayor
de Cuenca of Salamanca. There is another copy of the maps and
derrotero in the Direccion de Hidrografia, Madrid, Col. Navarrete,
Tomo 19, no. 9.

The maps very much reduced and without tlie descriptive
legends have been published in eleven plates in "Documentos
referentes al Reconocimiento de las Costas de las Califomias desde
el Cabo de San Lucas al de Mendocino. Recopilados en el archivo
de Indias," by D. Francisco Carrasco y Guisaloa. Madrid, Direc-
cion de Hidrografia, 1882. 96

Note. — The map above referred to in title no. 95, from "C. iS. Lucas" to "C.

Mendocino" is probably compiled from the above collection.

The following is the border manuscriiJt note to the reproduction in the KoJd

Collection, no. 283:

"This is a copy of a map contained in the Atlas to the reports on the expedition

of the Spanish vessels Sulil and Mexicana, published in Madrid 1802.

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 109

"The chart represents the discoveries along the Coast of California made in the
year 1602 by Seb. Vizcayno, the Coasts as they were represented by him, and
the names which he gave to the localities.

" Vizcayno's voyage was one of the most important voyages of the Spaniards in
these regions. He was the first, who reached Cape Mendocino, and gave to it its
name. From him are also the names of the ports of Monte Eey, of S. Diego, and
many other Californian names.

' ' The surveys of the Coast, which he brought home seem to have been very
extensive. They consisted of 32 plans, and were deposited in the Spanish
archives, where they remained concealed, without apparently being much used
by historians and geographers, until the beginning of this century. At last the
officers of the named vessels Sutil and Mexicana, when they composed their
Atlas, discovered those old charts copied and reduced them in the manner in which
they are presented here.

" ThLs all appears from a note, which the said officers added to the title of the
map in the^ntroductory explication of their Atlas.
"Title and note run thus:

" 'Carta plana de los reconocimientos hechos por el Capitan Sebastian Vizcaino.'
"'Esta carta, aunque reducida, es una copia fiel sacada de 32 pianos, que
acompanan el viage original de aguel celebre na\'igant€.'
" (Plain Chart of the surveys, made by the Captain Sebastian Vizcaino)
" (This chart, though reduced is a faithful copy, taken from 32 plans, which
accompany the reports on the voyage of that celebrated navigator)
"Unhappily no degrees whatever are added to the chart.
" If this map would have been made known at once in 1602, many errors, com-
mitted on later maps and many erroneous suppositions of the geographers about
the nature of California would have been spared."

In the notice of Martinez in Diccionario enciclopedico hispano-americano , v. 12,
page 307, is this description of an atlas which is evidently the same:
"A Martinez ee debfo igualmente un Atlas de los dcscubrimientos hechos en la
costa de California, formado de ordcn del conde de Monterrey. Consta de 33 hojas;
estd fechado en Mejico A 19 de Xoviembre de 1603, y de el existen copias en
Madrid en la Real Academia de la Historia."

A copy of the above mentioned work by Francisco Carrasco y Guisaloa, which
consists of documents relating to the expeditions of Sebastian Vizcayno in
1596-1597 and 1602-1603, is in the Library of Congress, from the bequest of
Woodbury Lowery, but does not contain the eleven plates.

The following ia a copy of the translation of the letter, accompanying the
sketch, iu which reference is made to Mexia. Although full of grammatical
errors, it is of interest.
"Sir,

" I wrote to Y. M., under date the 10th of May of the present year, by the hands
of Ensign Juan Rodriguez de Cartaya, and I am now in receipt of Y. M. replies
to my letters, of which Captain Alonzo do Pastrana was bearer. I have taken
due note of Y.M's orders gi'anting favors to myself and to the soldiers of tliis
post. But among all these good news, there is one thing which has gladdened
the heart of everyone here. That is, the news which (Y. M.) convey to me that
Our Lord has been good enough to bless Y. M. vrith. a crown Prince, and heir to
eliristianity; and that he was in perfect health, and that his coming into this
world had been solenmized by the clergy and people with festivals and reli-
gious services and public thanks to God. This glorious news has also been cele-
brated here, with all the possible Solemnity, in which we all heartily partici-
pated as loyal subjects. May Y. M. live for many years and the Crown Prince
also, in order that as he grows in age he i&ay take example of his royal father
and learn from him the zeal and care with which he protects Christianity and
his grand government.

" In my letter to Y. M. by the hands of the Said Ensign I already mentioned to
you how I had spent over one year in endeavoring to bring the natives of this
coast to obedience. How the Little Captain of Ais together with other Caciques
had voluntarily come to see me, and of the hopes he had given me that the Big
Captain, who is the General, whom all the Indians of this coast obey, would
also come to see me. The Little Captain and the other Caciques left here so
well pleased with the treatment they had received from me at my own house,
that due to that, there also came the Big Captain to fulfil his promise, together
with other Caciques, among whom the one from Sarruque who was the one that
felt most grieved at the treatment they had received here formerly. He having
been kept a prisoner for six years.

"After having assured me that they would go to work and become good vassals
of Y. M., I tried to persuade them to become Christians, and to that effect I
took them to this Convent of San Francisco, where the Rev. Fathers explained
everything to them. They agreed with me that they would send the Little
Captain, being the most practical, to learn first, all matters of Faith, and that
afterwards they could learn them from him. To this effect, the Little Captain
remained with us, while the others left for their homes. He remained here
during forty days, learning all matters relating to God. Since then the Caciques
go and come as they please, and our Soldiers do the same, by sea as well as by
land, with the greatest Security.

" I had a house built for them where they all live together, and when the time
comes for the crops to be gathered I will send them to their lands. I sent
among them a soldier by the name of Alvar Mexia, who is the first soldier that
was ever made a Cacique by tTicm. He teaches them and with his good man-
ners towards them has gained their good will.

' ' I send herein enclosed a Statement of the journey of this soldier, showing every
place he touched at both going and returning. lie went as far as Ais. I also send
to Y. M. a statement of everything that has transpired since the beginning of
this enterprise and the results I have obtained from it.

"The clergymen that you had ordered to come here to assist in the conversion
of the natives, ha\-ing sailed from Havana on board a Frigate, boimd for this
port, went ashore on a storm, on the coast, about a hundred leagues from this
place, and in the vicinity of Tacumbe, where they saw themselves in great

danger of losing their lives. But the Indians went to them and learning that
they were my friends, gave them all the assistance they could and pro\'ided
them with fish, water and wood and helped them to float the Frigate again,
which they succeeded in doing after having lightened her of the cargo she had
on board. After having floated the vessel and replaced the cargo on board,
the Indians turned over the vessel back to the crew, without having taken the
least thing. Continuing their voyage towards this port, they sto])ped at and
entered into the bar of Mosquitos, where the Indians took charge of the clergy-
men and took them to their town, and after having provided for them the best
they could, they escorted them all the way to this place, by land, where they
arrived all well. Two years ago, at any of the places where these Clergymen
now touched, they would have been eaten alive by these Indians. The truth
of these facts are made patent by the depositions of the Pilots who came with
the said clergymen.

"I beg of Y. M. to confer sonie grace upon this soldier who was the first one to
risk his life, in order to save many others, and I beg to assure you that said
favor is well merited.

"While waiting for the men, whom Y. M. has promised to send me for my expe-
dition of discovery into the interior of this country, I thought I would try and
ascertain something about that land and coast, and to that effect I sent Captain
Francisco Fernandez with a body of Infantry, with instructions to reconoitre
the ports and bars and to penetrate inland and obtain all the information he
could in regard to that country, so that as soon as the expected re-enforcements
should arrive, I might start at once, with some knowledge of that country.
The said Captain went and returned. He brought with him two Frenchmen,
whom he had found lost among the Indians. He also brought with him two
Indians; one of whom is quite a prominent person, being the chief of all those
lands. As the said Captain had taken a Pilot with him they reconoitred all
the ports and bars taking soundings of the same, as well as their latitudes and
land marks, as far as cape San Roman, which is over a himdred leagues distant
from here.

"The different latitudes of the said bars you will notice by the enclosed sketch
of the same. You will please have Don Luis Fernandez de Cordova informed
of this Sketch, as he was the one, from Y. M 's court, who asked me to endeavor
to discover these ports and bars in order to lessen the danger that ships run in
crossing the channel of Bahama. Among the ports marked on this sketch there
are some of a sufficient depth of water for any Fleet to go in with perfect safety.
And if unfortunately a vessel should be thrown upon that coast I trust in God
that no lives nor treasure would be lost, as it has happened to the present day.
The good success that God granted me in those affairs with the French and the
English in the month of March last, has helped me very much. It will be
necessary to continue guarding these coasts, and penetrate as soon as practi-
cable into that new country. To do this I need soldiers. I ask for three hun-
dred men exclusive of Friars, clergymen, marines and widows. Y. M. has
only about one hundred men here now, capable of bearing arms. It will
be necessary that together with the force that is to come, there may also come
some miners and lapidaries, with their tools and instruments.
"And if this expedition cannot be carried out, then I will tell you what this
province needs in order to save many ducats.

"To the Captain who defeated the enemies, and who has just returned from
rcconoitoring and exploring these coasts and who has rendered forty years of
faithful service to Y. M., I beg of you, as a recompense for the same that you
grant him some favor.

"Some time ago I reported to Y. M. haWng finished the palisade of this Fort;,
and I now beg to add that I have opened and widened the ditches surrounding
the same; so that it now deserves the name of Fort. To accomplish this, I have
been assisted by the Indians of the friendly pro\ince3 who readily responded
to my demands. And even from other proWnces the Indians came stimulated
by the report of the kindly treatment they received from my hands. After the
work had been completed they have all returned to their towns, I ha\-ing pre-
viously given to them some presents in the name and for account of Y. M.
"And so, thank God, I have all these prox-inces in perfect peace and quietness.
"After these festivals are over, I shall distribute the clergymen recently arrived,
among the various chapels of this proxince. Three of the clergymen that you
had sent here, remained in Havana; one being left sick while the other two
deserted. I also have another clergj-man who ha\-ing fallen from grace with
the Vice Roy of New Spain, came here. His name is Fray Geronimo Selaya, an
Aragones preacher; a native of Daroca. It would be better for the other clcrgj--
men not to come, as we now have sufficient. There is another good old priest
here, whose name is Fray Pedro Berenejo, who had been in charge of the Supe-
rior's residence during the absence of that Prelate who went to Spain. The said
Aragones preacher apparently has turned the mind of the good old father, so
much so that for the past six months they have given me more to do than all
the rest of the matters of these pro\inces together. Under separate cover I
send to Y. M. a full account of this trouble.

"Owing to the destruction by fire of the Church and residence of the Friars of
San Francisco they were compelled to live during eight days in the Hermitage of
Our Lady of la Soledad. From which place, the Governor Gonzalo ilendez
had the Hospital which was adjoining the Hermitage removed. He built
another one, in such an unhealthy locality and so very small, that out of every
six soldiers that entered it to get cured, three would die, and the other three
would never convalesce.

"As I have now built another good Church and house for those good Fathers, I
have had the Hospital moved back to the place next to the Hermitage, and by
private contributions I have enlarged it and almost made it new over again.
So that, now, the sick soldiers and slaves find more relief and comfort and
recover much more easily — besides it is not in danger of being destroyed by
fire as it was before.

" I intend to send to Havana for one of the Brothers of the Hospital 'Juan de
Dios," so that I may save the 6er\-ices of a soldier who has to be there. This
I did at the suggestion of the Council and because it was necessary. The pal-
metto house which formerly was used as a Hospital, I ordered to be turned
over to Captain Juan Garcia, who is the legal representative of Gonzalo Mendez,
the ex Governor. — All these matters are on record, as they appear in the docu-
ments which were drawn at the time.

" I have a communication from Y. il., dated at Guniel, the 4th. of September
of the year 1604, in which you order me to put a stop as quick as possible to the
habit of excessive gambling, as you had been informed that this evil was quite
extensively indulged between the soldiers and the town people, and at the
same time prohibiting any games from being played at my own house. In
answer to this matter, I will say to Y. il. , that I am not aware of what my pred-
ecessors used to do before my coming here. But I can assure you that since
I assumed command here, no gambling has been tolerated and the report sent
to you that such a thing was being permitted by me is false and damaging.
Notwithstanding that I have been a soldier all my life I despise gambling, and
outside of the Christmas holy days, no games of any kind have been played at

my house. And even during those days it was so limited, that the loss to any-
one in bad luck could exceed one hundred "reales." And during my illness
that lasted me about three months, the Royal Officers of Y. M. and some private
individuals used to come and play cards at my house but not for the piu-pose
of betting any money, but simply to divert and amuse me. This happened
only four or five times, and principally because I was not in a condition to be
able to read, which is my favorite exercise when I can spare the time.
" Nor is there any gambling going on in private residences nor will I ever permit
it, except it be some times at the Guard House.

"The truth of this assertion can be verified at any time that you may desire an
investigation to be made. The games sometimes indulged and permitted at
the Guard House are so trivial, maravedices {\ of a cent) being only used, that
really it is merely a pastime diversion. However if even these limited games,
should not meet with your Majesty's approval, I shall do as I may be com-
manded. But if Y. M. decides that games be only indulged at the Guard
House, then you can order that only one soldier be allowed the privilege of
selling play cards, and as it is so seldom that games are played, he will have
a, hard time to get the money back. And if it is your desire that no more cards
be played at my own house, even on Christmas eve, or when I may be ill, I
shall comply with your decision.

" I have informed the Bishop of Cuba of the necessity that this province hasof a
proper Prelate, even if it be only for a few days, not only to be able to admin-
ister the sacrament of confirmation, which has not been administered here for
forty years, but also to settle and arrange some ecclesiastical matters here which
require prompt attention. The Bishop has signified his willingness to come,
and for that reason I have sent to that city one of the Frigates of Y. M.'s service. ,
That vessel will bnng at the same time some beef.

' ' From time to time I have a few Cows brought here with the object of tr>-ing to
raise some stock in these provinces which heretofore it has been found impossi-
ble to do. The few Cows that I now have promise well.

"There is another matter to which I give much of my attention, and that is to
be able to make lumber Shingles, with which to cover the roofs of the houses.
So that whosoever may be appointed as my successor to the command of these
provinces, may see with what care I have attended to all things. '\Miich I
hope and beg of Y. M. to bear in mind, so that in the event of my removal I
may be ordered to serve Y. M. elsewhere.

"A map in the Arte de navegar by Pedro Medina 1st edition, printed in Spain
1545 and afterwards often translated and reprinted (according to Brunet and
Carter Brown: Lyons 1553, 1569, and 1576; Rouen 1573; Venice 1554 and 1555;
Germany 1576; London 1581) I have had access to the edition Venetia 1554,
where the map is printed in fol. xxxiii. Notwithstanding its small size, this
map is remarkable for its correct delineation of the Isthmus of Panama, for the
insertion of the famous papal line of demarcation between the ultramarine pos-
sessions of Spain and Portugal and, finally, on account of its original being
one of the few maps priuted in the Pyrenean peninsula before A. D. 1570.
Only three small Spanish maps of that period are known to me, viz., the map
of Petrus Martyr, Se\'ille 1511 (N. fig. 38) the map of Medina in the Arte de
Navegar and a very rude map of Spain by Medina in Libra de grandezas y cosas
memorables de Espofia, Seville 1549; Alcala de Henares 1548-1566 and 1595.
This work also contains the above mentioned chart in Arte de Navegar. With
the exception of some copies of medieval maps, which I suppose to exist in Span-
ish editions of classical authors, this seems to be almost the whole contribu-
tion during the earliest period of printed cartographical literature from the
countries, from which the New World and the southeast passage to India were
discovered, and from which hundreds of the most important voyages of dis-
covery started during that period. Fig. 75 I give a facsimile of Medina's
original map. It is far inferior to the copy published in Venice and also, I
suppose to the copies published in France." (p. 50)

"A map in Pedro de Medina's Arte de Navegar, Sevilla 1545, afterwards trans-
lated into French by Nicolas de Nicolay 1554, into Italian by Fra Vicenze
Paletino da Corsula 15.54 (15.55) into German by Michael Coignet 1576, and
into English by J. Framptou 1581 (Harris.se, Biblioth. Amer. Velust., p. 413)
The map in the Spanish edition is reprinted probably from the original blocki
in P. de Medina's Libro de grandezas y cosas memorables de Espagna, s. 1., first
edit. 1548. As may be perceived by the fac-simile given on fig. 75, this map, the
only one to illustrate a manual of navigation which was once very popular, was
very insignificant. The author commits on it the blunder, scarcely to be excused
in a navigator of the middle of the 16th century, of marking a general scale on
a map with rectilinear meridians stretching from pole to pole. This map,
however, has the merit of rendering, with tolerable correctness, the outlines
of the Isthmus of Panama and of the eastern coast of America. In this respect,
it has a predecessor in the drawing in Petrus Martyr, Venetia 1534 (compare
above p. 106, fig. 67) which is also based on Spanish originals. Medina's map
is further of interest as one of the few maps printed in Spain during the early
period of cartography. The plate in the Italian edition is a faithful, somewhat

reduced copy of the Spanish original, nicely cut in wood. Besides this map
the Arte de Navegar (Italian edition) contains several geometrical figures and a
small hemisphere surrounded by wind-heads. A map of Spain in Pedro de
Medina's above cited Cosas memorables de Espagna is in Ortelius' Catalogus
aiwtorum deservedly characterized as valde rudis. It is only of interest as a
proof of the low stage of the art of map-printing in Spain in the middle of the
16tli centurj'." (p. Ill)

In Puente y Olea's Los Irabajos geogrdficos. Sevilla, 1900, p. S16, is a reproduc-
tion of the map in Medina's work, entitled De las grandezas y cosas memorables
de Espana, Sevilla, 154S, which differs from the Nordenskiold reproduction, as
the New World extends a3 far as the strait of Magellan.

The map, however, which is in the Library of Congress copy of his work entitled

This map is reproduced in the Kohl Collection in the Library of Congress, no.

200, with the following border ms. description:

"This is a copy of a map of our present Carolina, (then called French Florida)

in Lescarbot's well known History of New France. Edit. 1G18.

" Lescarbot gives to his map the following Title: "Figure et description de la

terre, reconnue et habitee par les Francois k la floride et audcfa gisante par lea

30, 31 et 32 degrez." (Figure and description of the country, reconnoit«red

and inhabited by the French in Florida and beyond that, situated in 30, 31

and 32 degrees)

" That he is himself the author of the map is evident from the note added to it:

'De la main de Mr. Marc Lescarbot' (By the hand of Mr. Marc Lescarbot)

"The map is interesting, because by it many errors in the geography of Carolina

were introduced, errors which disfigured our maps of that country still at the

end of the 17th Century. Lescarbot was in that century considered as a great

authority in the history and geography of North America, and his geographical

pictures were embodied into many works.

"Lescarbot seems not to have known or at least not used the comparatively

good old map of French Florida by Le Moyne (See our collection) on which

the French ' Riviere des Dauphins ' (our Augustine-Harbour) and the ' Rivi&re

de May' (our St. John's River) were laid down in their true Latitude a little

North of 30°, and where to St. John's River (Riviere de May) was given its

true course, running out with a great Northern circuit from a Southern Lake.

Lescarbot puts these rivers half a degree higher to the North and makes the

'R. de May' (St. John's river) run from the North-West in the direction of

the course of our Altamaha and 'Savanna' river and makes it come out from

a large Northern Lake.

"His R. des Dauphins (Augustine Harbour), which Le Moyne on his map had

very well represented as a mere inlet he makes somewhat like St. John's river^

come out from a smaller Western Lake, with an island, called Sarope.

" This false picture of Lescarbot was copied by La'et and many other geographers,

and came even down upon our early maps of Carolina, even on those of 1682,

where the great Lake and the River May of Lascarbot take the place of our

Savanna-river.

"The French names of the rivers between St. John's river (Rio de May) and

'Charlefort' (Port Royal) are the names, which distributed here Ribault, 1564.

" The Apalachian mountains are depicted on our map as one single high Pyramid

and called 'Montague de Palassi.'

"The inscription is added to it: 'ici se trouve or, argent, et cuivre' (here is

found gold, silver and copper)

"In another note Lascarbot says: that he has named all the Indian villages

after the names of their chiefs and that he has not marked the thirtieth part

of those which really existed in the country."

The following reference to his map making is in the Dictionary of national
biography:

"He had already, in 1598, presented 'divers maps' to the queen (ib.) and in
1600 he gave others to the Merchant Taylor's Company, which acknowledged
his 'very rare and ingenious capacitie in drawing and setting forthe of mappes
and genealogies, and other very excellent inventions.' In 1607 he copied
Norden's map of Surrey for the first edition of Camden's ' Britannia, ' and between
1608 and 1610 he published a series of fifty-four 'Maps of England and Wales'
(royal fol.); the maps of Cornwall, Essex, Middlesex, Surrey, and Sussex were
by Norden, and others were by Christopher Saxton [q. v.] These, accom-
panied by a description of each map, were collected in 1611 in Speed's 'Theatre
of the Empire of Great Britaine' (London, fol.) for which George Humble,
the publisher, had received a license three years before (Cal. State Papers,
Dom. 1603-10, pp. 425, 639) A second edition appeared in 1614, and a third
in 1627, with the title 'A Prospect of the most Famous Parts of the World.' A
new edition, with many additions, ai)peared in 1676. A Latin version was
published in 1G16 and again in 1646."

Note. — The Library of Congress has a fine copy of this atlas, 3 volumes in 2,
dated 1646-1647 in which this and the five following titles under Lucini are
described. The following extracts are taken from the note to title 457 in
Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases:

"First marine atlas in which the maps were drawn on the Mercator projec-
tion . . . The first edition of which exist only a few copies. The best known
are in the BibUoth&que Nationale, the Grenville copy in the British Museum
and the manuscript copy in the Eoyal Library at Munich. In America there
are complete copies in Harvard Library and the Library of Congress, and part of
a copy in the latter and the Public Library of the city of Worcester. Baron
Nordenskiold states 'In how many of the large libraries of Europe one seeks
in vain for . . . the Arcano dell mare.'

"The author, Sir Robert Dudley, son of the earl of Leicester, was well quali-
fied by education, travel and the possession of valuable new material, to pro-
duce a work of importance and lasting value. His knowledge gained through
his experience as a seaman, together with that of his brother-in-law Henry
Cavendish the na^^gator, is amply set forth and accompanied by additional
information supplied by Abraham Kendal and John Davis. Three manuscript
volumes, the fiRt two dated 1610, preserved in the Specola, or Museo di Storia
Naturale at Florence, are perhaps the basis of this work, whereas the manu-
script m the Royal Librarj- at Munich is the completed work comprising even
more than was finally published.

"The work consists of 3 v., comprising 6 bks. bound in 2 v., the first of which
contains v. 1, bks. 1-2; v. 2, bks. 3-4; v. 3, bk. 5. The second contains v. 3,
bk. 6.

"The text of bks. 1-4 is uneven, measiiring 14-14J x 9J inches. The plates
are of various sizes, the larger ones folded to 16 inches. The text of bk. 5 is
16 inches in height; bk. 6, ISJ x 13J inches inlaid to 21J x 16J inches. The
maps, 21J inches in height, are mostly on double sheets 31 x 21J inches,
guarded in the center. On the plates in the different copies, the pointers and
centers vary in pattern and seem to be used indiscriminately.
"The manuscript coat of arms, the first leaf in the Grenville copy, here omitted,
is of similar workmanship to the illustrated manuscript title in this copy.
The title in a scroll at the top, reads 'Dell' Arcano del mare. Tomo primo

diuifo nel libro primo e secondo.' Below is a design consisting of rocka in
the sea.

" The portolanos and charts are of great interest, many of the American ones
being on a larger scale than even those of the dutch 'pascaart' of later years.
That the american maps may perhaps even claim priority over those of Laet,
may be seen from the statement of Antonio Francisco Lucini, the engraver,
who states in the dedicatory epistle to the second edition 'Fiorenza, 1661,'
that he worked on the plates in seclusion for twelve years in an obscure tuscan
village, using no less than 5,000 pounds of copper in the making.
" It is undoubtedly due to the rarity of the work that the maps of America have
been so overlooked, although dr. Winsor calls attention to it and gives several
partial reproductions in his 'Narrative and critical history of America,' v.
3-4. The maps are by english and other pilots and it is generally conceded
that the work was both scientific and accurate for the time. Dr. Hale, in his
'Notes on Robert Dudley' (American antiquarian society. Proceedings,
1873, V. 61, p. 9.5-) says: 'If, as I believe, he used the original charts of Henry
Hudson, the manuscript at Munich gives us by far the most accurate account
we have of the northern voyages of that discoverer. I have already said that
there is reason to suspect that the maps of the Pacific coast were drawn from
the original observations of Cavendish . . .'

"Abraham Kendal, the master of Dudley's flagship in the expedition of 1.594-95
to explore the 'Eldorador,' left notes and plans embodied by Dudley, in v. 1,
bk. 2. The work of another of this group of famous navigators is represented
in a portolano covering the voyage of John Davis to India in IGOl."
While various references are made to an edition published in Florence in l(i30,
no bibliographical description for such an edition seems to be known. The
edition 1646-1647 is recognized as the first edition and that of 1661 as the
second.
, Antonio Francisco Lucini is the engraver of all the maps io both of these edi-
tions. The edition of 1630 which is mentioned in the title may be the maiiu-
Bcript origiaal. Kohl has this to say in the border ms. note to the reproduc-
tion, no. 267:

" This is a copy of a map of Florida, made by the Duke of Northumberland
Robert Dudley and found among his manuscript charts, preserved at the Royal
library of Munich.

" The famous navigator and hydrographer Robert Dudley lived as a fugitive from
England at the beginning of the 17th Century at Florence, where he died in
the year 1639. (See about him in our collection the charts of California) He
probably made this map a little before or at 1630. It was for the first time
published iu this year in his great Sea Atlas, called 'Arcano del mare,'— a
second time in the second edition of this Atlas in 1646 and again 1661. All
these three editions (which are mentioned in Chalmer's General Biographical
Dictionary 1813. Vol. xn. p. 414) are now so extremely scarce, as seldom to
have found a place even in the catalogues, that have been published of rare
books.

"The map gives as good and full a picture of Florida as might be expected at
that time. We have still much later maps of Florida, which are much worse
than this.

" The observations on the wind and currents are particularly remarkable. Dud-
ley introduced such observations on all his charts, at a time when nobody else
thought of it.

"The chain of his observations: 'II corrente va verso Levante' (the currents
are East) near the mouth of the Mississippi, — 'U corriente viene del Maes-

tiate' (the current comes from the North West) at the western side of Florida —
and: 'il corrente va verso Levante a mezzo Canale' (the current runs to the
East in midchannel) between Cuba and Florida, give a ver>- full and correct
description of the Currents in the Gulf of Mexico.

"On the Coast of West Floridahegivessome of the very first Spanishsettlementa,
made there after the middle of the 16th Centurj': 'S" Maria de Ochia' (our
Pensacola) and 'Filipina,' named so in honour of Philipp ii.
"Some of the Spanish names however are italianized or corrupted by him in
the most extraordinary manner. I will mention them, because some of those
corruptions were adopted on other maps and became stationary:
" 'Baia di Miracoli,' (the Bay of miracles) instead of 'Miruelo,' a well known
Spanish na\-igator.

"'Golfo Ponte' (the Gulf of the Bridge) instead of 'Ponce,' a celebrated
Spanish conqueror.

"'B. questa' instead of 'Teguesta,' an Indian \-ilIage, often mentioned in
Herrera and other Spanish authors."

The notice of Dudley in the Dictionary of nationalbiography gives a description
of the edition of 1646-47 and states that a second edition appeared at Florence
in 1661. A copy of this edition is also in the Library of Congress, which will
be described in a supplementary volume to the List of Geographical Atlases.
Edward Everett Hale, in his " Note on Robert Dudley . . . and his Arcano
del Mare'' published in the Proceedings of the American antiquarian society,
Oct. 21, 1S73, pp. 9-3-96, says: " The title of the first edition is 'Del Arcano del
Mare di Roberto Dudleo, dtica di Nortumbria e Conii di Wamnck, libri vi., Firenze,
1630,46,47.'"

In the preface to The Voyage of Robert Dudley . . . to the West Indies, 1594-
93 edited by George F. Warner. Edkluyt Society, Works, 2d ser., no. 3, pp.
Lxi-Lxit, are references to this work of Dudley's and a facsimile is given of
the title to the edition of 1646: "A few words must be given to his magnificent
work U Arcano del Mare, which is his most enduring memorial. As Mr.
Leaderer has pointed out, the germ or basis of it is to be found in three
manuscript volumes preserved, with some of his nautical and other scientific
instruments, in the Specola, or Museum of National Historj' at Florence.
"The first two of these volumes are in English, and were written about 1610;
the third, in Italian, seems to have been added ten years later, as the
author speaks of himself as a Duke and of Cosmo ii, who died in 1621, as
etill liNong."

Also: "It was not until 1646, three years before his death, and when he was
seventy-two years of age, that Dudley began to publish to the world the result
of his fifty years' study and practical experience of all matters connnected with
the sea. The comprehensive character of his work may be seen from its title-
page."

The Bibliotheca GrenviUiana, London, 1S42, v. J, p. 212, in a note to the edition
1646-47, states: " This first edition of 1646, published under the author's
inspection, and with original impressions of the Plates, seems on that account
more valuable, and is considered as more rare than the second.
"In thesecond edition of 1661, published at Florence twelve years after the death
of the author, the Text underwent a considerable change of arrangement,
and several additions were made, which were said to be collected from the
Mss. of the author. Those additions are principally transcribed into this copy
of the first edition."

Dai-id Clement in his Bibliothiijiu curieuse . . . 1757, v. 7., pp. 459-463,
gives the title of the 1646 edition, which he calls "Premiere Edition fort-
lare," and describes the 1661 edition in detail.

The following interesting note is copied from Quaritch's General catalogue, v. 5
with reference to this 1661 edition:

" The Arcano comprises Portolani and Charts by English and other pilots, which
were never published elsewhere; and to American collectors it should prove of
the highest interest. The maps which depict Virginia, New Netherlands and
New England, are amongst the most important of these: they are fuller and
upon a larger scale than, while at the same time they are totally distinct from,
those of Laet, Jansson, Mercator, Visscher, the BeschrvA-ing of 1651, Van Loon,*
and Donckers. It is very strange, upon this account, that the Arcano is
omitted by Asher in his Bibliographical essay, and that the attention of so pains-
taking a student should not have been drawn to Dudley's work. The above
second edition was prepared from the author's corrected copy of the first (1646);
and as he died in 1639, his maps of those parts of America must be considered
to take precedence of aU those mentioned by Asher, except the 1630 edition
of Laet. In fact, it is uncertain whether they might not claim priority even
over Laet; for the engraver Lucini mentions that he himself had been kept
secluded in an obscure village of Tuscany for twelve years, working incessantly
at the plates. Asher's Essay, so elaborate in its description of the various early
maps and charts, their variations, and their mutual dependence or independ-
ence, becomes verj' defective through its omission of the Arcano. Again the
large scale of the maps of California and New Albion, and the number of names
which crowd the coast-line below and above Cape Mendocino, with the mar-
ginal observations upon the errors of latitude made by previous writers, show
conclusively the scientific character and importance of Dudley's work. A
similar remark will apply to the delineations of the newly-discovered lands of
Australia, and the northern coasts of New Holland (which he mistakenly calls
New Guinea, while lea^dng to that island its other name Papua)
'• One of thePortolans is by Abraham Kendal, the master of Dudley's flag-ship,
when the latter (just before P^aleigh made his similar attempt) fitted out an
expedition in 1594-95 to explore the land of Eldorado; during which he ^dsited
Trinidad and some other islands, Guyana, the issues of the Orinoco, etc. He
took some useful notes, made lists of native words, thrashed some Spanish ships,
and escaped some great dangers in this expedition, a daring one for a young
man of 21 — but returned without booty. The numerous \'ocabularie3 of savage
languages which the Arcano contains are of considerable interest. Abraham
Kendal, whose name is unknown to the book-makers, died at Portobello, in
Central America, in 1597, in Drake's service, lea\-ing behind him the plans and
papers of which Dudley made good use."

" Ce portulan dessine sur velin par ordre de la Compagnie des Indes Occiden tales
sans dbute, est le tableau des connaissances nautiques acquises par la Com-
pagnie, des cotes d'Am&ique dans les dix huit premieres anndes de son exist-
ence.

" C'est un monument cartographique de premier ordre, le prototype des portulans
imprimes aux Pays-Bas dans le xviie sifecle pour les navigateurs en service
de la Compagnie des Indes Occidentales.

" La carte a 6te compos^e d'aprfes des portulans espagnols, augment^e et cor-
rig^e d'aprfes les journaux hollandais. La partie de Nieu Neerlant p. ex. est
remplie de noms hollandais tols que Sandhoeck, Hoeck van de Visschers, A.
Blocks Eylandt, Cabellaus Eylandt, C. Hinlopen, C. Man. Eyerhaven, Roo-
bargh, Noortrivier, t Fort Nassau, R. Vandenrodenbarg, Varsche rivier, Vriea-
scherivier, Sloopbay . . . Nous la consid^rons comme un chef-d'oeuvre carto-
graphique surtout en vue des difflcultds qu'avaient les navigateurs hollandaifl
de se procurer des renseignements exacts pour cette ^poque.
" II y a des exemples qu'on allait prendre ces nouvelles de la bouche des marins
strangers dans le port a Amsterdam. Voir p. ex. le manuscrit cit6 sous le
no. 1424 oil un Van Rensselaer va eniichir sa connaissance chez les navigateurs
br^siliens.

"Les ^tudiants en cartographie am^ricaine nous feront peut-etre I'objection
qu'il y existe un portulan pour le terrain de la Compagnie des Indes Occi-
dentales date de 1621, portulan public par O'Callaghan Documents; mais
cette carte de O'Callaghan est une mystification, du moins pour ce qui con-
ceme la date de la reproduction dans les Documents.

" La carte d'O'Callaghan main tenant expos(?e en original dans le Lenox Library
est ime carte publiee par Anthoni Jacobsz sans date. O'Callaghan n'en a
reproduit que la partie septentrionale et a introduit dans sa reproduction une
vignette, 6trangfere k la carte, et la date fictive de 1621. C'est la date de la
fondation de la Compagnie, mais point du tout la date de la carte, car sur la
partie non reproduite par O'Callaghan se voit une decouverte de 1643: C'est-
a-dire celle de Brouwer sur la cote de Chili, decouverte publi6e en Hollande
en 1646. Voir le nom de Brouwershaven sur les cotes de Chili dans la carte
originale et complete d'O'Callaghan, expos6e au Lenox Library.
" Done la carte reproduite par O'Callaghan etdat^e parlui de I'an 1621 est d'une
date plus post&ieure et nous la pla^ons vers 1650. (Voir le notice sous le no.

The following note is copied from PhilUps' List of Geographical Atlases, title 44S:

"In 1631, Willem Jansz. Blaeu published an atlas entitled: Appendix theatri

A. Ortelli et Atlantis G. Mercatoris continens tabulas geograph. diversarum

orbis regionum nunc prim, editas cum descriptionibus. fol. Amsterdami,

apud Guilj. Blaeuw, 1631. This atlas contained 103 maps (2 of which relate

to America) and has become very rare. Willem J. Blaeu and his eon Joan

published together in 1635 a larger atlas in 2 vols. The following quotation,

taken from the announcement written by Joan Blaeu in the french edition of

the atlas explains its origin: "Guillaume mon pere ^tant excit6 par les exem-

ples des grands geographes s'etait r^solu de donner la description de ce monde

imiversel, mais en partie occup6 ^ d'autres affaires, et en partie craignant

pour la grandeur de cette entreprise il la remit a un autre temps. Comme done

je fus retoume d'ltalie, je pris la charge d'une chose si haute et si difficile et

joignant mes travaux aux siens, nous imprimames I'atlas en deux volumes."

Note. — This map is also found in the original dutch edition of 1625, consult
title 122. It is reproduced in the Kohl Collection, no. 203; the manuscript border
notice of which reads as follows;

"This is a copy of a map in J. Laet's great work on America, edition of 1625.
The map stands also in the same manner in the edit, of 1630 and in the other
editions of the same work. The map has the title: ' Florida et regiones \-icinae.'
(Florida and the neighboring regions) Laet seems under the name of Florida
to comprehend only the countries between Virginia and the Mississippi.
"Laet was a man of a great sagacity and learning, and he by his studies sometimes
arrived at very correct and admirable results. We find sometimes Latitudes and
positions on his maps, which have scarcely been corrected since. La Condamine
amongst others gave an example and proof of this. Also this map. though it is not
one of his best, bears some e\-idence, that he laid not down his names and places
at random, but after ha\-ing studied his predecessors and the old authors upon the
subject. Nearly all the names North of the Mexican Gulf are taken /rom the
reports on the expeditions of De Soto, and are laid down, so much as it could be
done in that region, where the historians of De Soto placed them. For instance
'Aute' near our present Apalachee Bay. 'Achusi' not far from our present
Pensacola. 'HLrrihigua" the name of that Cazique in Florida, whom De Soto
met in the outset of his joiuney.

" It is, however, astonishing that even a man like Laet could with all his study
not arrive at a better Mississippi system, than he gave to his contemporaries, in
those fanciful river-cotu-ses, which he lays out around 'Bahia del Espiritu
Santo.' I think, in all the reports on De Soto's as well as on Luna's expeditions,
it is clearly enough stated, that there was one principal and main river channel.
Laet has, however, the Latitude of the mouth of his 'Bahia del Espiritu
Santo' (Mississippi) very right in 29° N. L. The names on the peninsula of
Florida: Bahia de Carlos (oiu- Ponce de Leon Bay) Tampa, R. Ayz (our Jove
inlet) S. Augustin, Barra de S. Matheo (our St. John's River) are all from the
surveys of this country under Don Pedro de Menendez (about 1570)
" The whole coast and interior of South Carolina or what was then called French
Florida, is nothing but a reduced copy of the map, which Lcscarbot gave in Ajs
work edit. 1618. (See our collection) Only the names varj'. Laet adopts the
mistake of Lescarbot, to make the French ' R . de May ' similar to our Savannah
or Altamaha Rivers, whilst he ought to have put it at Barra de S. Matheo.
From this misplacement many other mistakes are a consequence.
"The 'Lacus magnus' (Great Lake) beyond the Apalachian Mountains, does
after Laet and Lescarbot not disappear more from the maps. It is perhaps a tra-
dition relating to Lake Erie, of which a travelling Indian brought down a report
to the Seacoasts. At all events this Lacus magnus takes afterwards the form
and position of that most Southern Canadian Lake."

relating to the colonial history of New York)

The vignette used by him belongs to the HoUantl maps pub-
lished about 1680. As the O'Callaghan (in the Lenox Library,
New York) map shows the Brouwer discovery of 1643, the tlate of
1621 is obviously wi-ong. 137

Note. — According to W'oltersdorf, in his Repertorium der land- and seekarten
. . . Wicn, 181S, p. 11,1, Pieter Mortier died in 1724. Sanson, the author of
this map died in 1667. The map is evidently based upon those published in
his life time. According to the above mentioned work of Woltersdorf , p. 105-106,
there were various atlases dedicated to the duke of Burgundy, published by
Pieter Mortier from 1691 to about 1697, from one of which this impression was
probably taken. Same map, except that the name of Sanson has been replaced
by that of Delislc and the imprint changed to "Amsterdam, chez I. Covens &
C. Mortier . . ." is in Delisle's ^i?as nouveau . . . Amsterdam, 17.13, v. 2, no.

Note. — A copy of the work containing this map is in the Library of Congress.
Montanus' De nieuwe en onbekende weereld (see Sabin p. 303) is evidently
a compilation made up of material relating to America and collected from
many sources. Most of the maps are taken from de Laet's Nieuwe wereldt
ofte beschrijvinghe van West Indien. Leyden, 1625. The views of cities
are probably taken from De voomaemste steden des werelts. — The principal
cities of the world, 't Anist., bij Gens^t ran Schagen by de Nieuwe Baerlemmer
Slugs in de Stuennan S. a. (See Tiele, P. A. Nederlandsche bibliographic,
p. ZSl) Schagen is supposed to have died in 1668. This book is not in the
Library of Congress. The other plates are probably taken from de Bry, Hulsius
and other writers on America.

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 155

John Ogilby's "America," London, 1671, is an english translation of Montanus,
the maps and plates being identical, with a few exceptions, in the two editions.
There is also a german translation by O. Dapper, which was published in 1673.
All the maps, views, plates, etc. having been collected from many sources
were re-engraved for Montanus by Jacob van Meurs, whose name in one copy
is attached as author to the map of America. This same map is found in another
copy of the book in the Library of Congress with the author "G. A. Schagen."
The same map is in Ogilby's english edition with Ogilby as author. This map
was originally taken from Visscher's Novi Belgii, etc.

A good description of this work of Montanus is found on pp. 19-23 of Asher'a
Bibliographical and historical essay on the dutch books and pamphlets relating to
New Netherlands, etc.

The life of Montanus with extensive descriptions of his writings is found in
van der .Va's Biographisch woordenboek der Nederlanden, v. 12, '2d part, pp.
1006-1009. The same volume, page 749, gives a notice of the life of Jacob van
Meurs, in which his connection with the works of Montanus is mentioned. For
other accounts of Jacob van Meurs, see Nagler's Neues Allgemeines kunstler-
lericon, v. 9, p. 204, and MuUer's Allgemeines kiinstlcr-lexicon, v. 3, p. 188.
Nagler gives a list of his most important portrait engravings.]
O'Callaghan's Documentary history of the state of New York, Albany, 1851,
V. 4, pp. IIS-ISI, contains a translation of the portion of Montanus relating to
New Netherlands. Here also is reproduced the view of New Amsterdam.
The work of Montanus is profusely illustrated, containing engraved title-page,
16 maps, 7 portraits, 70 plates and 29 plans of cities. Among the plans of
cities of especial interest to America is the city of old Mexico, and also New
Mexico, Arx Carolina or Charlestown, S. C, New Amsterdam or New York,
Pagus Hispanorum or St. Augustine, Habana, Porto Rico, Acapulco &c.
Among the portraits are those of Columbus, Vespucius, Magellan, Athabaliba,
Montezuma, Pizarro. After the "bladwyzer," or index, is a list of the various
authors consulted in the compilation of this work, entitled " Namen der schrijvere
in het tegenevoordig werk aengetoogen." Among these we notice van der
Donk, Herrera, de las Casas, Wytfliet, (Jarcilassus de la Vega, Hugo Grotius,
Linschoten, de Laet, Peter Martyr, Samuel Purchas, Thevet, etc.

The earliest atlas of Sanson-Jaillot containing these maps, both dated 1684,
is described under datn 1689-1690, title 503 of Phillips' List of Geographical

This map is a reprint of what is known as the "Lords Proprietors map" origi-
nally made for Ogilby's America in 1671. A copy of the original map without
date is in the Library of Congress and is entitled: A nev} description of Carolina
by order of the Lords Proprietors. James Maxon scul.
It has an inset showing the mouth of the Ashley and Cooper river.
The following is taken from the Calendar of state papers. Colonial series. America
and West Indies, 1669-1674- Preface, p. xxxviii. "There are in this volume
references to several maps of the Colonies in America as well as of the West
Indies. Sir Peter Colleton writes to ' his honoured friend John Locke ' that
Mr. Ogilby is printing a relation of the West Indies, and wishes to get a map
of Carolina, and he desires he will ask Lord Ashley for the maps of Cape Fear
and Albemarle, so as to draw them into one with that of Port Royal and he
will wait upon his lordship for the nomination of the rivers, &c. And Sir
Peter adds, if Locke would draw up a discourse to be added to this map in
the natm-e of a description, 'such as might invite people without seeming to
come from us' it would very much conduce to the speedy settlement of Caro-
lina (715). The Sieur Sanson published two maps of Carolina some years after
Ogilby's map was printed, in which the several counties and some of the rivers,
and capes are named after the Lords Proprietors, \-iz., Albemarle, A.shley,
Berkeley, Clarendon, Carteret, Craven and Colleton. John Ogilby, waa

as Master of the Revels in Ireland: he was also the originator of 'Paterson's
Roads.' His 'Advertisement' at the end of this volume contains some
of his contributions to cosmography and a list of the several atlases he was
engaged upon. His map of Africa was published in 1670, America in 1671, and
the first part of Asia in 1673, but his Description of the British Monarchy, referred
to in his 'Advertisement,' was not published until 1675, under the title of
'Britannia: a description of the kingdom of England and dominion of
Wales.' All these maps are to be found in the British Museum. Ogilby
died in 1676, and was buried in St. Bride's Church, Fleet Street."
The map in this collection is copied from this map with the omission of the
inset. A reproduction dated 1672 is found in the Charleston year booh for 1886.
This same reproduction with the date 1672 is in The genesis of South Carolina,

It is the same map as listed under Du Tralage in title 182. The map has
considerable historical information. Lower California is called "Isle de
CaUfornie"

An imperfect draft, without Kohl's annotations is no. 288 of the Kohl Collection.
There is a difference of opinion in regard to the author's given name — Brunet's
Manuel du libraire, and British Museum catalogue use "Vincenzo Maria," and
the author's signature to the dedication is the same. Bibliographers seem to
have agreed on "Marco Vincenzo," notwithstanding the fact that the author
himself is the best authority. It is probable that the error arose from changing
the latin Marcus into the Italian Marco, instead of Maria.

A notice of Jean Baptiste Nolin, 1657-1725, in Biographie universelle (Michaud)
V. SI, p. IS, says:

"II se livra au commerce d'estampes et y joignit celui des cartes de geogra-
phic, en grava et mit au jour un grand nombre sous son nom; ellea

que pour les omements que Nolin y joignait."

A notice binder Nicolas de Tralage, Jean, died 1699, in Biographie universelle

(Michaud) IK 30, p. 552, speaks of his publishing his maps always under the

name of Tillemon and says:

"Ce dernier avait fait une ample collection de cartes geographiques, oil Ton

trouve toutes celles qui furent publi^es de son temps et notamment les Cartes

de Nolin. La bibliotheque de Paris poss^de maintenant cette collection,

provenant de I'abbaye de St- Victor et qui est rang^e dans un tr&s-bel ordre."

Jacques Le Long, in his Bibliothique hislorique de la France . . . Nouvelle

editwn . . . 1768, v. 1, p. 47, title 581, speaking of Coronelli's map of France,

"Augment^e par le Sieur Tillemon: Paris, Nolin, 1694" says:

"Jean Nicolas du Tralage, mort en 1696, s'est cach6 sous ce nom. II ^toit

trfes-habile dans la G^ographie, qu'il avoit ^tudi^e avec soin."

Auguste Jal, in his Dictionnaire critique ... 2c ed. 1872, pp. 4S0~431, has a

notice of Coronelli, which describes especially his celebrated globes at Marly

and his life in Paris. For other references to Coronelli, consult the following:

Note. — As Visscher's atlases are never dated and his maps rarely so, it is diffi-
cult to form a conclusion as to when his maps were published. The nearest
approach to a positive date is found in an impression of this map in Abraliam
Wolfgang's Atlas Minor, 1689, which is reviewed to this effect in Leclerc's
BiblioMqw universelle, 1689, p. 294:

Note. — The following reference to Minet is in an article, by Winsor, entitled
Joliet, Marquette and La Salk in his Narrative and critical history of America,
V. 4, p. 2S7:

"The engineer, Minet . . . made on the voyage a map of the mouths of the
Mississippi doubly interpreted, — one sketch being based on the Franquelin
map of 1684, as La Salle had found it in 1682; and the other conformed to
their recent observations about Matagorda, into whose lagoons he made this
great river discharge . . . This map is still preserved in the Archives Sci-
entifiques de la Marine, and a sketch of it is in the text. Thomassy (p. 208)
cites it as 'Carte de la Louisiane avec I'embouchure de la Ri\-ifere du S' de
la Salle (Mai, 1685), par Minet,' and giving a sketch, calls it the complement
of Franquelin. Shea thinks it was drawn up from La Salle's and Penalosa's
notes. Cf. Shea's Penalosa p. 21; Ilarrisse, Notes, etc., nos. 225, 227, 228,
25&-258, 260, 261, 263, who says he could not find on it the date Mai, 1685,
given by Parkman and Thomassy; Gravier, La Salle; and Delisle, in Journal
des Savans, xix. 211. Margry (ii. 591) prints some observations of Minet on
La Salle's efforts to find the mouth of the Mississippi . . . This is a reduced
sketch from a copy (Barlow collection) of the original in the Archives of the
Marine, gi^■ing two plans of the mouth of the river, — the one in the body of
the map as 'La Salle le marque dans sa carte', and the other (here put in
the small square), 'Comme nous les avons trouvez'. It is Harrisse's no. 225."
Henry Harrisse, in his Notes . . . dela NouveUe France, p. 203-204, gives this
relating to Minet's map of Louisiana: "225. Carte de la Louisiane. 35 x 24 c.

"Ces deux lettres coiTespondent k I'embouchure du Mississipi et k un b^quet

de trois quarts cette partie de la carte, sur une largeur d'environ troia centi-
metres, et coll^ au-dessous le fagment ci-dessua.

"Cette carte a 6te e\-idemment faite au retour, sur une carte manuscrite, qui
est probablement celle de Franquelin de 1684. On y lit au Fort St. Louis
des Illinois: 'Demeure du Sr. de la Salle.' "

Thomassy, in his Geologic pratique de la Louisiane . . . 1860, p. 208, describes
the same map as:

'^ Carle de la Louisiane avec I'embouchure de la rivikre du Sr De la Salle."
Canada. (May 1685), par Minet.

"(Archives scientifiquea: No. 3 de la boite29*) Cette carte, non moinsprlcieuse

Embouchure de la ri\'ifere, comme M. de la Salle le marque dans sa carte. —
B. Costes et lacs par la hauteur de sa rivifere, comme nous les avons trouvfe.
Cette dernifere expression se rapporte aux cotes du Texas, oil De la Salle cher-
chait alors la branche occidentale du Mississipi. L'auteur de cette cart«
on a laisse plusieurs autres d'un grand int^ret pour cette vaine et malheureuse
recherche. Minet parait, en outre, avoir ^te I'ingenieur hydrographe de
cette seconde expedition d'oii il revint avec M. de Beaulieu. Le nom de
la bale Minet, que nous rotrouverons plus tard dana I'aestuaire de Mobile,

sipi. Celle qui suit ne serait pas indigne d'etre sortie de ses mains."

[In Margry, Pierre. Decouvertes et etablissements des franfais dans Vouest et dans
le sud de I'Amirique Septentrionale 1614-1698 . . . v.2, pp. 591-606]
From Francis Parkman's La Salle and the discovery of the great West. France
and England in North America, part third. Boston, 1897. v. 2, pp. 127 and
134, are copied these notes relating to La Salle:

"A map, entitled Entree du Lac ou on a laisse le S'' de la Salle, made by the
engineer Minet, and preserved in the Archives de la Marine, represents the
entrance of Matagorda Bay, the camp of La Salle on the left, Indian camps
on the borders of the bay, the 'Belle' at anchor within, the 'Aimable'
stranded at the entrance, and the 'Joly' anchored in the open sea."
"The narrative of the engineer, Minet, sufficiently explains a curious map,
made by him, as he says, not on the spot but on the voyage homeward, and
still preserved in the Archives Scientifiques de la Marine. This map includes
two distinct sketches of the mouth of the Mississippi. The first, which cor-
responds to that made by Franquelin in 1684, is entitled 'Embouchure de
la Rivifere comme M. de la Salle la marque dans sa Carte.' The second l)i'ar9
the words, ' Costes et Lacs par la Hauteur de sa Riviere, comme noua les a\on8
trouv6s.' These 'Costes et Lacs' are a rude representation of the lagoons

of Matagorda Bay and its neighborhood, into which the Mississipjji is made

to discharge, in accordance with the belief of La Salle. A portion of the

coaet-Iine is drawn from actual, though superficial, observation. The rest ia

merely conjectural."

In vols. 2 and 3 of Pierre Margry's Decouvertes et elahlissements das fraruyiis

dans Vouest et dans le sud de VAmerique Septentrionak. 1614-1698 ... are

two interesting maps relating to La Salle. Margry believes that the first of

these maps is a tracing of an original map by La Salle:

"Carte de la Louidane en VAmerique septentrionale, depuis la Nouvelle France

In the same work, v. 2, pp. 591, is Minet's Relation . . . sur la recherche de

I'cntree du Mississipi. And his Lettre . . . au Marquis de Seignelay 16S5, in

which he speaks of sending him certain maps of the coast of Florida and a

map of Louisiana. In the Bulletin de la Societe de geographie, Paris, nov. and

dec. 1880, p. 435-454, and b33-55&, is an article entMed " Cavelier de La Salle

"RonquiUo (Peter von) Graf von Gramedo, ein sehr geschickter Spanischer
Staatsmann zu Ende des 17 Jahrhunderts, ward an den Hof dea Konigs Carls
II in Engelland als ausserordentlicher Gesandte, und nachaehends als Gevoll-
miichtigter aui den Xiemiigischen Friedens-Congress gesendet, konnte sich aber
daselbst mit dem Spanischen Abgesandten, Marquis von Fuentes, nicht ver-
tragen, und begab sich also 1678 im April von dar hinweg nach Briissel, und
sodann wieder nach Engelland. Daselbst befand er sich als Spanischer Min-
ister bey des gedachten Konigs Absterben, da er denndem neuen Konig Jacoben
II alsofort bey der ersten Audientz mit grosser Frej-muthigkeit vorstellte, wie
nachtheilig es ihm seya wurde, wenn er fortfiihre der Geistlichkeit allzuveil
Gehor zu geben. So widerrieth er auch nachmahls diesem Herm gar sehr,
eich der Frantzosischen Hillffe gegen den Printzen von Ocanien zu bedienen.
Er starb endlich in Engelland 1G91 als ausserordentlicher Abgesandter bey
dem Konig Wilhelmen m, bey welchem er sich eine ungemeine Hochachtung
erworben, wie denn auf Koniglichen Befehl sein Leichnam, bis zu dessen
Abf iihrung nach Spanien in der Capelle zu Westmiinster beygesetzet worden."
In an article by Peter Joseph Hamilton entitled Was ifobile bay the bay of
Spiritu Santof published in the Transactions of the Alabama historical society,
1899-1903, V. 4, pp. 73-93, is a description of various maps relating to this region
especially in connection with the La Salle discoveries.

See also Bethel Coopwood's article Notes on the history of la bahia del Espiritu
Santo, in The Quarterly of the Texas historical association, oct. 1898, in which is
the statement that "In 1561, by wtue of a royal cedula. Angel de VUlapane
and Jorge Seron ran the same coast and made a descriptive chart of it, the
original of which exists in the archives of Mexico."

Elizabeth Howard West in a note to an article on Ponce de Leon's expedition
of 1689, in the Quarterly of the Texas state historical association, Jan. 1905, v. 8,
p. 200, says:

"There are two small maps of a part of Espfritu Santo Bay, as the Spanish
called the bay where La Salle settled, listed as Nos. 79 and 80 in Lanzas,
Relaci6n Descriptiva de los Mapas, Pianos, & de Mexico y Floridas Existentes en
El Archivo General de Indias, which, no doubt, relate in some way to the expe-
dition of La Salle. Both were sent by Pedro Ronquillo, then Spanish ambas-
sador to England, from London to Madrid in January, 1687. Their exact
meaning and value, however can of course not be determined until the docu-
ments accompanying them have been exploited. Tracings of these maps were
made several years ago for mr. Peter J. Hamilton, of Mobile, who called my
attention to them and placed them in my hands. The accompanying docu-
ments, however, have, so far as I know, never been copied."

note:

"Cette carte, bien que nondat^e, est peu post^rieure a I'exp^dition de Beaujeu

indications exactes de I'emplacement de Chicago (Chicagou) et des forts et

An interesting map which it is well to describe here and which seems not to
have been mentioned in this list is 222 in Harrisse's above mentioned work,
where it is described as:

" 222. Carte de la Louisiane ou des Voyages du Sr. de la Salle et des pays qu'il

" II en existe une copie dans laBibliothfequedu Parlement Canadien, k Ottowa,

A map which should be mentioned here is described in the same "Notes," p. 206,
no. 231, with a statement attached to this effect:

"Voir sous cette date, au D^pot des Fortifications des Colonies (N? 280) un
travail de Franquelin, intitule : 'M^moire pour informer Monseigneur (Seign-
elay) de I'importance qu'il y a de tirer des lignes justes sur les limites des terrea

This map is noted in Marcel's Catalogue des documents geographiques, p. 19, no.
137. A reproduction is found in the Library of Congress. A reproduction is
also found in vol. C3 of The Jesuit Relations . . . Cleveland, the Burrows brothers,
1900, V. 63.

It is a "reduced facsimile of ms. copy (made in Paris for Francis Parkman)
now in the Library of Harvard University. The original, formerly in the
Archives de la Marine, Paris, has been lost."

For a description of this map consult also R. Thomassy's Geologic pratique

Consult also Winsor's Narrative and Critical History of America, v. 4, pp. 227-228.
Another map which is not mentioned in this list is the one described in Har-
risse's Notes, pp. 200, title 219, dated 1682, and is thus described:
"2i9. Carte de VAmerique Septentrionale et partie de la Miridionale Depuis

S9-S6, ph. 7-10. Consult Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title IISS.
Winsor further states that Parkman was inclined to ascribe this map to Fran-
quelin. In this work are found many references to the vafious cartographical
publications of Franquelin.

Harrisse, also in his "Notes," describes various Franquelin maps.
In the volume relating to Paris documents, of the Documents relative to the
.colonial history of the state of New York, v. 9, p. 205, in the letter from m.
de la Barre to m. de Seignelay, dated nov. 4, 1683, is this reference: "What I
have recently received from that quarter deserves a full explanation, and for
that purpose send you a relation apart from my despatch, which, with the
map of the country that I have had prepared for you, will give you perfect
knowledge of every thing, and the means of interesting his Majesty therein.
The young man who made these maps is named Franquelin; he is as skilful
as any in France, but extremely poor, and in need of a little aid from his
Majesty as an Engineer; he is at work on a very correct map of the country
which I shall send you next year in his name; meanwhile I shall support him
with some little assistance."

In the Kohl Collection, no. 229, is a reproduction of a map by Franquelin which
also bears on this subject. The border ms. description reads:
"This is a copy of a sketch of the Mississippi-river and country, contained in a
manuscript-map, which is preserved in the 'Depot de la marine' at Paris.
"The map has the following title: 'Carte genirale de la France seplentrionale,
contenant la decouverte du Pays des Ilinois. Faiteparlesieur Jolliet.' (General
map of arctic France, containing the discovery of the country of the Illinois,
made by Sieur Jolliet)

''The map has the following dedication: 'A monseignieur Colbert, ministre
secret, d'etat par son tres humble serviteur Duchesneau intendant de la Nouvelle
France' (To Monseignieur Colbert, minister secretary of state by his most
humble servant Duchesneau, intendant of New France)

On the margin of the map is further written: 'Joannes Ludovicus Franquelin
pinxit' (J. L. Franquelin, painted it)

" The date of the map is not indicated and no longitudes are gi\-en upon it.
We have another map of the Mississippi of the year 1688, painted by the same
J. L. Franquelin. (See our collection) There is stated, that this Franquelin
was 'Hydrographe du Roy en Canada.' (Hydrographer of the king in Canada)
and he dates his map from Quebec. That map of 1688 is much more detailed
and shows a progress of the knowledge of the Mississippi. Of this our present
map it is from many circumstances evident, that it is of a much earlier date
and that it is one of the first French maps of the Mississippi, if not the very first
one itself.

"It is generally known that 'Sieur Jolliet ' who is named as the originator of the
map, was the companion of father Marquette at his discovery of the Mississippi
in 1773 [1673] He probably brought the materials of the map to Quebec, where
the Pioyal Hydrographer Franquelin copied and compiled them and put them in
a general picture of the French dominions in America, which then the Intendant
Duchesneau sent out to France for the King.

"Our map agrees in the principal points with the map, given as Marquette's
map in Thevenot. We point out the following:

" The whole course of the Mississippi is given on one map in the same manner as
on the other, and its mouth on both maps under 30° N. L. Only on our map
the Mississippi is indistinctly prolonged to the North and the Coasts of the
Northern Ocean f Mer du Nord ') are near its head.

178 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

Franquelin, Jean Baptists Louis — Continued.

" On both mapB is written East of the mouth of the Mississippi: 'Europeans'
and West 'Tahensa.' Many other names agree iu the same manner. On
both maps the 'w' or 'ou' in the different names is written '8.'
"The Latitudes of the Upper and Central M. are on both maps a little different,
but on both wrong.

"The 'chameaux' (Camels), which Marquette only mentions are painted on
this map. Likewise portraits of Buffaloes, deer, bears and ostriches are added.
On Marquettg's map the Mississippi is written 'Mitchisipi' on this 'Messisipi.'
The names of the Indian nations, which are written along the Eastern side of
tbe Upper M. are not on Marquette's map. They are however also not taken
from Hennepin's map or report. Nothing indicates, that when this map was
made Hennepin had already travelled along that part of the upper M. which
Marquette and Jolliet did not see. Even not his famous waterfalls of St. Anthony
are indicated. We should therefore at all events p\a,ce owe map before the year
1682, in which Hennepin travelled.

' ' Those Indian names of which Marquette and Jolliet heard probably something
by report, are however very interesting, because already the 'Siou' and the
'Ihanctwa ' (Yanctons) are among them."
Harrisse, in his "Notes," also describes it:

"214. Carte grille de la France Septentrionalle contenant la decouuerte du pays des
Ilinois faite par le sicur Jolliet. 2^ cartouche: A monseig. monseigneur Colbert
conseiller du toy en son coseil royal. Ministre et secretaire d'eslat commandeur

"Cette carte n'est pas I'oeuvrede Jolliet, commeM. Parkman eemble le croire
(Great-West, p. 409) car elle porte dans Tangle droit, en has, la signature sui-
vante: Joannes Lvdouicus Franquelin pinxit. M. Duchesneau etait encore au
Canada en Juillet 1682 (Brodhead ix, p. 174), mais il avait virtuellement
ces86 d'etre Intendant de la Nouvelle-France quelques mois avant, puisque la
nomination de son successeur (M. de Meules) est de Mai 1682. Cette carte est
done ant(5rieure h, cette demi'Ve date, et d'autant plus importante qu'elle a
pr6c6d6 les voyages authentiques de Cavelier de la Salle au Mississipi."
Parkman, in his La Salle and the discovery of the great West. France and England
in North America, part third. Boston, 1897. v. 2, pp. '224-5, says of this map:
"Joliet, at about the same time, made another map, larger than that just men-
tioned, but not essentially different. The letter to Frontenac is written upon
both. There is a third map, of which the following is the title: Carte gcneralle
de la France septentrionale contenant la descouuerte du pays des Illinois, faite par
le Sr. Jolliet. This map, which is inscribed with a dedication by the Intendant
Duchesneau to the minister Colbert, was made sometime after the voyage of
Joliet and Marquette. It is an elaborate piece of work, but very inaccurate.
It represents the continent from Hudson's Strait to Mexico and California,
with the whole of the Atlantic and a part of the Pacific coast. An open sea is
made to extend from Hudson's Strait westward to the Pacific. The St. Law-
rence and all the Great Lakes are laid down with tolerable correctness, as also is
the Gulf of Mexico. The Mississippi, called 'Messasipi,' flows into the Gulf,
from which it extends northward nearly to the 'Mer du Nord.' Along its
course, above the Wisconsin, which is called 'Miskous,' is a long list of Indian
tribes, most of which cannot now be recognized, though several are clearly
sub-tribes of the Sioux. The Ohio is called 'Ouaboustikou.' The whole
map is decorated with numerous figures of animals, natives of the country, or
supposed to be. Among them are camels, ostriches, and a giraffe, which are
placed on the plains west of the Mississippi. But the most curious figure is
that which represents one of the monsters seen by Joliet and Marquette, painted

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 179

on a rock by the Indians. It corresponds with Marquette's description {ante,
p. 59) This map, which is an early effort of the engineer Franquelin, does
more credit to his skill as a designer than to his geographical knowledge, which
appears in some respects behind his time."

Title in the upper right-hand comer surrounded by a garland and drapery;
in the left-hand corner, large crown, fleurs-de-lis, and globe. Large view of
" Quebec comme il se voit du c6le de Vest ' ' in lower right-hand corner.
This map whUe elaborate does not show careful drawing. The drawing is
such as to magnify the french territory to the evident detriment of the Eng-
lish. It is valuable in connection with the Great Lakes, Upper Mississippi
and St. Lawrence river region.

This map was praised by Parkman as the most accurate.
Harrisse, in his Notes . . . gives the title, p. 207, title 234.
In the Kohl Collection, 232, the reduced manuscript copy is found with many
omissions, including the view of Quebec. He subtitles it: " The Mississippi by
J. B. L. Franquelin."

Winsor states in his description of this collection:

"It is called Carte manuscripte de I'Amerique septentrionale par J. B. Louis
Franquelin, hydrographe du roy en Canada. Quebec en 1688. It gives the
Mississippi a wide, zigzag course, and makes it debouch on the coast of Texas.
Kohl has not annotated it. It has been engraved for E. D. Neill's History
of Minnesota, 1882; and this engraving is reproduced in the Nar. and Crit.
Hist. America, iv, 230, 231, and in Winchell's Final report of the geological
survey of Minnesota, vol. 1, pi. 2."

Parkman, in his La Salle and the discovery of the great West, France in England and
America, part third. Boston, 1897. v. 2, pp. 228-9, in the "Appendix" describ-
ing "Early unpublished maps of the Mississippi and the Great Lakes," says:

THE LOWEKY COLLECTION 181

"Perhaps the most interesting feature in Franquelin's map is his sketch of
La Salle's evanescent colony on the Illinois, engraved for thia volume. He
reproduced the map in 1688, for presentation to the king, with the title Carte
de VAmcriqiie Septentrionale, depuis le 25 jusqu'au 65 degre de latitude et environ
140 et 235 dcgrcs de longitude, etc. In this map, Franquelin corrects various
errors in that which preceded. One of these corrections consists in the removal
of a branch of the river Illinois which he had marked on his first map, — as
will be seen by referring to the portion of it in this book, — but which does not
in fact exist. On this second map, La Salle's colony appears in much dimin-
i.«hed proportions, his Indian settlements having in good measure dispersed.
Two later maps of New France and Louisiana, both bearing Franquelin's
name, are preserved in the Depot des Cartes de la Marine, as well as a number
of smaller maps and sketches, also by him. They all have more or less of
the features of the great map of 1684, which surpasses them all in interest and
completeness."

reduction, to the present day, by . . . don Antonio Bonilla . . . 1772, published
in the Quarterly of the Texas state historical association, 1904-05, r. 8, are certain
references to Alonzo de Leon among which this extract is of interest :
" [First entrada into the province of Texas, by Alonzo de Leon]
" He made known the entry of the French into the Bay of Espiritu Santo, and,
by order of His Excellency the Conde de Monclova, Captain Alonzo de Leon,
governor of Coaguila, went thither.

' ' He began his expedition with a hundred men on the twenty-third day of March
of the said year 1689, taking with him the above-mentioned Frenchman Juan
Henrique. On the twenty-second day of April they foimd the fort which they
were seeking dismantled, the buildings sacked, and the Frenchmen dead.
On the twenty-third, [Leon] examined the bay, where only email vessels
could anchor, and on the twenty-sixth [he explored] the San Marcos River,
. which has its outlet through the said bay. On the first of May, the chief of the
Texas presented himself, bringing in his company two Frenchmen, streaked

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 183

with paint like the Indians. [The Frenchmen] brought news that more than a
hundred of their companions had died of small-pox, and that the rest, surprised
by the Indians, had miserably perished by stabs and blows. [Alonzo de Leon
treated the chief of the Texas kindly. The latter, very much pleased, offered to go
with some of his nation to the Province of Coaguila]
" [Second Entrada, by Alonzo de Leon]

" In the year 1690, the aforesaid Alonzo de Leon returned with a hundred and
ten soldiers. He rescued two Frenchmen and one Frenchwoman.
" The feast of Corpus Christi was celebrated among the Texas on the twenty-fifth
day of May, in the presence of the [Indian] chief and all his nation. When
mass was over, the ceremony of raising the standard in the King's name was
gone through with, possession was taken of the countrj', and the Mission of San
Francisco de los Texas was founded."

In the article by E. H. West referred to in the title is the Itinerary of the
expedition made by general Alonzo de Leon for the discovery of the Bahia del
Espirilu Saydo andthefrench settlement. 1689.

The same Quarterly for nov. 1908, v. 12, has an article by Herbert E. Bolton
entitled Sotes on Clark's ' The beginnings of Texas, ' in which, in a note to
page 149, notice of the map is given which says that the map is signed "Si-
guenza, 16S9." A biography of Carlos de Siguenza y Gongora (1645-1700) is
in Diccionario endclopedico hispano-americano. v. 19. p. 10.5.
The following title is from the British Museiim catalogue of additions, 1848-
18.53 (no. 17566):

"Derrotcro de la Jornada que hizo el general Alonzo de Leon para el descubrimiento
de la Bahaia del Espirilu Santo y Pobladon de Franceses. Ano de 1689. About
170 words to a page. It begins 'Marzo Dias 23. Este via salieron los que se

statement that :

Note. — A copy of this impression is in the collection of the Library of Congress.
It was copied from Guillaume Delisle's "Carte du Mexique et de la Floride,

de Mississipi, dressee sur un grand nombre de memcnres principalemf, sur ceux
de m". d' Iberville et le Sueur."

This impression of Delisle was originally published in 1703, without, however,
the descriptive notes inserted in the map or the commercial routes. The
Schenk impression evidently reprinted from the 1722 impression of Delisle,
is translated into latin. Lower California, is omitted, and an engraving of a
naval battle not on the Deli.sle original is added. This Delisle map was repub-
lished by Ph. Buache, "gendre de I'auteur, avec privilege du 30 av. 1745."
Consult Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, for description of the various
Delisle's atlases containing these maps.

An impression of this map without date is found in Johann Baptista Homann's
Neuer atlas, 171'2-[1730] Consult the forthcoming volume to Phillips' List of
Geographical Atlases.

The Schenk impression is probably a reprint of this, with differences only of
cartouches and illustrations. For various other impressions of the Homann
edition consult also the above "List."

The map here mentioned is probably the edition of 1710, of Pieter Schenk and
Gerard Vaick, Atlas contractus. It is not in the edition of 1709 described in
Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 551.

Consult Woltersdorf's Repertorium der land- und seekarten, 181S, p. 112, for a

In Le Clercq (Chretien, 1641 ?-1699?) First establishment of the
Faith in New France. Now first translated, with notes, by John
Gilmary Shea. New York, J. G. Shea, 1881. vol. 2, p. 8. "

"Some copies of the map are said to bear the date 1692. The last
firrure has something of the appearance of a 2, but seems to be
really a 1." Quoted by P. Lee Phillips in A list of Maps of America,
p. 563. LC 202

Note.— The date 1692 has been retained in this title notwithstanding the
statement, noted above, title 201, that it seems to be 1691. In the various biblio-
graphical descriptions of this work of Le Clercq's, such as in Sabin, Rich, Le
Clerc, and various others including the very extensive notice, title 169, pp.
157-167, in Harrisse's Xotes, no mention is found of a map. The Carter-Brown
Catalogue in the description of this work, mentions a map in the collection,
but gives no norice of it. So the only information is what has been quoted in the
Shea translation.

The following editorial note quoted from Winsor's Narrative and critical history
of America, v. 4, P- 291, describes very fully this work, with references to
the various accounts of the life of the author:

"This translation, of which only 250 copies were printed, was made by Dr.
Shea. He introduces it with ' A sketch of Father Christian Le Clercq,' which
includes a bibliographical account of his works. The book supplements in a
measure Sagard's Histoire du Canada, since that had given the earlier labors as
this portrays the later works of the Recollects, or at least more minutely than
Sagard. The Recollects had been recalled to Canada to thwart the Jesuits,
and Le Clercq reached Quebec in 1673, and was assigned in 1675 to the vicinity
of the Bay of Gaspe as a missionarj' field; and it is of his labors in this region
that we learn in his Kouvelle relation de la Gaspesie, which was printed in Paris
in 1691 (cf. Harrisse, Notes, 170; Field, Indian bibliography, 902; Temaux,
176; Faribault, 82; Lenox, in Historical magazine, ii. 25; Dufosse Americana,
1878, 75 and 100 francs; Sabin, vol. x. p. 159; Stevens, Bibliotheca historica,
1870, no. 1,113; Brinley catalogue, 102; Le Clercq, Bibl. amer., 746, 140
francs; Carter-Brown, vol. ii. no. 1,415; O'Callaghan, no. 1,360) and Le
Clercq refers his readers to the present work for a continuation of the storj',
but it does not contain it, that portion being suppressed, as Dr. Shea thinks.
The Jesuits are bitterly satirized by Le Clercq in the concluding part of the
first volume, and in the second of the Etablissement. Shea's collation of the
Nouvelle relation does not correspond with the Harvard college copy, which has
28 instead of 26 preliminary leaves. See also Sabin's Dictionary, vol. x. no. 39,
649; Field's Indian bibliography, no. 903; Harrisse, Notes sur la nouvelle
France, no. 170; Boucher de la Richarderie, \-i. 21; Faribault, p. 82.
"The original edition of the Etnblissemeyit had two varieties of title, one bearing
the author's name in full, and the other concealing it by initials. It is very
rare with either title, but copies can be found in the Carter-Brown Library
(see Catalogue, no. 1,413) and in the Sparks Collection at Cornell University
(see Sparks Catalogue, no. 1,482) Dr. Shea notes other copies in Baron James
Rothschild's library at Paris, and in the Abbe H. Verreau's collection at
Montreal. Mr. Stewart tells me there are copies in the libraries at Laval
University, of the Quebec government, of the Literary and Historical Society
of Quebec, and of Parliament, at Ottawa. The Lenox Library has a copy of
what seems the same edition, with the title changed to Histoire des colonies
franfoises, Paris and Lyons, 1692. Mr. Lenox (Historical magazine, January,
1858), following Sparks and others, claimed that the 1691 edition was suppressed;

but Harrisse {Notes, ek'. p. 159) disputes this in a long notice of the book, in
which he cites Oeuvres de Messire Anloine Arnould, Paris, 1780, xxiv. 720, to the
contrary. Le Clercq's book should have a map, 'Carte generalle de la Xouvelle
France,' which is given in fac-simile in vol. ii. of this translation. It includes
all North America, except the Arctic regions, but, singularly, omits Lake
Cham plain'

"President Sparks wrote in his copy: 'An extremely rare book. . . It is pecu-
liarly valuable as containing the first original account of the discoveries of La
Salle by two [Recollect] missionaries who accompanied him. From this book,
also, Hennepin drew the account of his pretended discovery of the Miss-
issippi River.' See the bibliographical notice in Shea's Discovery and Explora-
tions of the Mississippi valley, p. 78. Sparks in his Life of La Salle, first pointed
out how Hennepin had plagiarized from the journal of Father Membr^, con
tained in Le Clercq. See further in Shea's Mississippi valley, p. S3 et seq.
where Membr^'s journal in Shea's translation from Le Clercq was printed for
the first time, and the note on Hennepin, following chap, viii of the present
volume. Harrisse, Notes, etc., p. 160, points out what we owe to this work for
a knowledge of La Salle's explorations. Cf. Parkman's La Salle; Field's In-
dian Bibliography, no. 90S, with a note touching the authorship; Brunei,
Supplement, i. 810, noting copies sold, — Maison-neuve, 250 francs; Sobolewski,
150 thalers; Tross (1873), 410 francs; Dufoss^, 600 francs; Le Clercq, no. 2,833,
1,500 francs.

"The bibliographers are agreed that others than Le Clercq were engaged in the
Etahlissement, and that the part concerning Frontenac was clearly not by Le
Clercq. Charlevoix says Frontenac himself assisted in it; and it is Shea's
opinion that extraneous matter was attached to Le Clercq's account of the
Recollect missions, to convert the book into an attack in large part on the
Jesuits. — "

William F. Ganong, in the introduction to Le Clercq's New Relation of
Gaspeda . . . 1910, in reference to this book says: "The book contains no
pictures, and usually no maps, although the map of New France, made to
illustrate his other book, is sometimes found in this. The eastern portion is
reproduced in this volume."

This atlas is not in Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, in the Library of Con-

A reduced copy of this map, with some changes and with Sanson as the author,
dated 1695, is found in Jaillot 's Atlas frangois . . . 1695, described in the Same

This map differs from the others as here Lower California is represented as a
peninsula and not as an island.

The reduced impression in this collection is similar in every respect except in
the second cartouche which has, instead of "a Paris, 1694," "a Amsterdam

Note. — The marquis de "Chasteaumorant" or more correctly Chateaumorand
was in command of the ship " Franfo/is" which escorted Iberville in the expe-
dition sent out by the french government to seize the mouth of the Mississippi
river. This map and the following one were evidently made in connection with
this expedition.

The following notice is taken from Annuaire de la noblesse de France . . .
public par m. Borel d' Havierive. 1862, v. 19, p. 237:

"Joseph-Charles Joubert de la Bastide, chevalier, marquis de Ch&teaumorand,
entra au service dans la marine sous les auspices de son oncle, I'amiral de
Tourville, en 1672, fut nomm6 capitaine de vaisseau le 5 Janvier 1684, chef
d'escadre le 6 octobre 1712, chevalier de Saint-Louis le 24 aodt 1715, gouvemeur
g6n6ral de Saint-Domingue le 28 Janvier 1716, lieutenant gi^n^ral des armies
navales du roi le 1"' novembre 1720, re^u chevalier de justice des ordres royaux
et mUitaires de Notre-Dame du Mont-Carmel et de Saint-Lazare de Jerusalem

une croix noire a son hunier. "

1856 — was given by Peiialosa in 1684 to Seignelai, French minister of the navy.
The original is said by Penalosa to have been sent to the king of Spain in 1663,
with a printed memorial by Don Diego himself, not known to be extant. There
is no question of the genuineness of the document as published by Shea."
" Diego Dionisio de Peiialosa y Briceno ruled Xew Mexico in 1661-4, having been
appointed in 1660. He was a native of Peru, and adventurer and embustero,
bent on achieving fame and fortune with the aid of his imlimited assurance
and his attractive person and manners, by which alone presumably he obtained
his appointment from the viceroy. Of Don Diego's rule and acts, as in the
ease of other rulers of the period, almotit nothing is known. It appears, how-
■ ver, that he \Tsited Zufii and the Moqui towns, heard of the great kingdom
of Teguay through a Jemes Indian who had been captive there, and also of
Qui\Tra and Tejas, and the Cerro Azul, rich in gold and silver ores; and that
he planned an expedition to some of these wonderful regions. I have seen
an order dated at Santa Fe in 1664 which bears his autograph. Like liis pred-
ecessor, Mendizdbal, he became involved in troubles with the padre custodio
representing the inquisition; or more probably, as I think, he went to Mexico
in 1664 or later to urge his scheme of northern conquest, and there came in
conflict with the holy tribunal, by which he was perhaps kept long in prison;
and at any rate, in February 1668 he was forced to march bareheaded through
the streets carrying a green candle, for having talked against the santo oficio
and said things bordering on blasphemy. Unable to interest the viceroy and
king in his project, he went to London and Paris in 1671-3, and there attempted
to organize a grand filibustering enterprise of conquest against his former
sovereign, freely resorting to falsehood, and claiming for himself the title of
Conde de Santa Fe, with half a dozen others to which he had no claim. He
died in 1687, and his efforts are closely connected with the expedition of La
Salle of 1682-7; but these matters pertain to the annals of Texas, and not of
New Mexico.

rative of an expedition to Quivira made by himself in 1662, written by Padre

Freitas, one of the friars of his company, and sent to the Spanish king. He
never made any such entrada or rendered any such report. The narrative
was that of Onate's expedition of 1601, slightly changed to suit his purposes in
Paris. I made known this fraud in an earlier volume of this series, but since
have received the work of Fernandez Duro, published two years before my
volume, in which that investigator, by similar arguments reached the same
conclusions. I suppose that it is to Don Diego's statements in Europe that we
must look for the origin of the famous hoax of Admiral Fonte's voyage on the
north-west coast in 1640, the story having first appeared in 1708, and Pefialosa
being represented as vice-admiral of the fleet."

The Kohl Collection in the Library of Congress has a reduced reproduction of
this map, measuring 20J x 13i inches within the border; with mss. description,
outside the border, to this effect:

"The date of the map is not indicated and no Longitudes are given upon it.
" We have another map of the Mississippi of the year 1GS8, painted by the same
J. L. Franquelin. (See our collection) There is stated, that this Franquelin
was 'Hydrographe du Roy en Canada.' (Hydrographer of the King in
Canada ).aud he dates his map from Quebec. That map of 1688 is much more
detailed and shows a progress of the knowledge of the Mississippi. Of this our
present map it is from many circumstances evident, that it is of a much earlier
date and that it is one of the first French maps of the Mississippi ever made, if not
the very first one itself.

"It is generally known that ^Sieur Jolliet' who is named as the originator of the
map, was the Companion of father Marquette at his discovery of the Mississippi
in 1673. He probably brought the materials of the map to Quebec, where the
Royal Hydrographer Franquelin copied and compiled them, and put them in
a general picture of the French dominions in America, which then the Intend-
ant Duchesneau sent out to France for the King.

"Our map agrees in the principal points with the map given as Marquette's map
in Thevenot. We point out the following:

" The whole course of the Mississippi ia given on one map in the same manner as
on the other, and its mouth on both maps under 30° N. L. Only on our map
the Mississippi is indistinctly prolonged to the North and the coasts of the
Northern Ocean ('Mer du Nord') are near its head.

206 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

Franquelin, Jean Baptiste Louis — Continued.

"On both maps is writtou East of the mouth of Mississippi: ' Etiropeane ' and
West: 'Tahensa.' Many other names agree in the same manner. On both
maps the 'w' or 'ou' in the different names is written '8.'
"The Latitudes of the Upper and Central M. are on both maps a little different,
but on both wrong.

"The 'chameaux' (Camels), which Marquette only mentions, are painted on
this map. Likewise portraits of Buffaloes, deer, bears and ostriches are added.
On Marquette's map the Mississippi is written 'Mitchisipi ' on this 'Messisipi.'
The names of the Indian nations, which are written along the Eastern side of
the upper M. are not on Marquette's map. They are however also not taken
from Hennepin's map or report. Nothing indicates, that when this map was
made Hennepin had already travelled along that part of the upper M. which
Marquette and Jolliet did not see. Even his famous waterfalls of St. Anthony
are not indicated. We should therefore at all events place our map before the
year 16/^2, in which Hennepin travelled.

" Those Indian names, of which Marquette and Jolliet heard probably something
by report, are however very interesting, because already the 'Siou' and the
'Ihanctwa' (Yanctons) are among them."

Parkman, in Appendix i, relating to "Early unpublished maps of the Missis-
sippi and the Great Lakes" in his France and England in North America, pt. S,
1869, in speaking of Joliet says:

"There is a third map, bearing his name, of which the following is the title
Carte generalle de la France septentrionale contenant la deseouuerle du pays des
Illinois, faite par le Sr Jolliet. This map, which ia inscribed with a dedication
by the Intendant Ducheeneau to the minister Colbert, was made some time
after the voyage of Joliet and Marquette. It is an elaborate piece of work, but
very inaccurate. It represents the continent from Hudson's Strait to Mexico
and California, with the whole of the Atlantic and a part of the Pacific coast.
An open sea is made to extend from Hudson's Strait westward to the Pacific.
The St. Lawrence and all the Great Lakes are laid down with tolerable correct-
ness, as also is the Gulf of Mexico. The Mississippi, called 'Messasipi,' flows
into the Gulf, from which it extends northward nearly to the 'Mer du Nord.'
Along its course, above the Wisconsin, whicli is called 'Miskous,' is a long
list of Indian tribes, most of which cannot now be recognized, though several
are clearly sub-tribes to the Sioux. The Ohio is called 'Ouaboustikou.'
The whole map is decorated with numerous figures of animals, natives of the
country, or supposed to be so. Among them are camels, ostriches, and a giraffe,
which are placed on the plains west of the Mississippi. But the most curious
figure is that which represents one of the monsters seen by Joliet and ilarquette,
painted on a rock by the Indians. It corresponds with Marquette's descrip-
tion (ante, p. 59) This map, if really the work of Joliet, does more credit to
his skill as a designer than to his geographical knowledge, which appears in
some respects behind his times."

In Winsor's Narrative and critical history of America, v. 4, P- Z01-^4S, is an arti-
cle entitled " Joliet, Marquette, and La Salle," by the editor, which gives the
reduced reproduction and the following statement on p. 211:
"There is in the Parkman Collection another map ascribed to Joliet, and called
in the sketch given therewith 'Joliet's carte g^n^rale,' which Parkman thinks
was an early work (in the drafting, at least) of the engineer Franquelin. It is
signed Johannes Ludovicus Franquelin pinxit; but it is a question what this
implies. Harrisse thinks that Franquelin is the author, and places it under
1681. Gravier holds it to imply simply Franquelin's drafting, and affirms that
it corresponds closely with a map signed by Joliet, which has already been men-

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 207

tioned as his earliest. Mr. Neill says of this map that it 'is the first attempt to
fix the position of the nations north of the ^^■iBconsin and west of Lake Superior.
The Wisconsin is called Miskous, perhaps intended fur Miskons; and the Ohio
is marked 'Ouaboustikou.' On the ui)i>fr Mi--i.--ippi are the names of the
following tribes: The 'Siou,' around what i^ u.,\v < lUi-^l ilie Mille Lacs region,
the original home of the Sioux of the Lake.-, ..r Kasurn Sioux; the Ihanctoua,
Pintoua, Xapapatou, Ouapikouti, Chaiena, Agatomitou, Ousilloua, Alimous-
pigoiak. The Ihanctoua and Ouapikouti are two divisions of the Sioux, now
known as Yanktons and Wahpekootays. The Chaiena were allies of the Sioux,
and hunted at that time in the valley of the Red River of the North. The word
in the Sioux means 'people of another language,' and the voyageurs called them
Cheyeimes."

The small map referred to on p. 213 of this article, entitled "Pays et peuple
decouverts en 1673 dans la partie septentrionale de I'Amerique par P. Mar-
quette et Joliet, suivant la description qu'ils en ont faite, redifiie sur diverses

"Une mer ouverte reimit la bale de Hudson au Pacifique.
" Le S. -Laurent, les grands lacs et le golfe du Mexique sent representes assez

" Le Mississipi, nomme Messissipi, coule des environs de la mer du JVordau golfe

Mishovs, est une longue liste de tribus indiennes qui ne peuvent etre reconnues
bien qu'elles appartiennent a la confederation des Sioux.
"L" Illinois etles trois grandes ri\'ieres de la rive droite du Mississipi sont anony-
mes. L'Ohio est appele Ouaboustikou.

"La carte entiere est decoree de figures d'animaux du pays ou supposes tels.
Dans les plaines occidentales il y a des autruches, des chameaux et une girafe.
" La plus curieuse figure est placee sur la rive gauche du Mississipi, entre 1' Illinois
et rOhio. Elle represente en grisaille I'un des monstres dont Marquette donne
une description que nous rapporterons plus loin.

" Si cette carte est de Joliet, dit M. Parkman, elle fait plus d'honneur a son talent
de dessinateur qu'a ses connaissances geographiques.

"M. Harrisse pense qu'elle est de Franquelin parce qu'elle est sign^e Johannes
Ludouicus Franquelin pinxit.

" Pinxit veut dire que Franquelin a dessin^ la carte, mais rien de plus. S'il
I'avait dress^e, n'auraitil pas fait prdc^der pinxit de delineavit? Aurait-il des-
eimule sa signatiu-e sous des caracteres microscopiques et dans la bordure in-
f^rieure? Tant de modestie ne pouvait convenir qu'a un dessinateur.
" II y a enfin une circonstance particuliere et pour nous decisive. La descrip-
tion de M. Parkman, que nous avons verifice au Depot des Cartes de la Marine,
r^pond exactement au trace, tres-caract^ristique, d'une carte inconnue de
Joliet que nous avons sous les yeux. De la comparaison attentive que nous
avons faite de ces deux monuments il resulte que le trace est de Joliet et le
dessin de Franquelin. Ce qui poiurait etre une addition de ce dernier, c'est
Terre-Xeuve et la partie meridionale de la Terre de Baffin.
" Nous admettons toutefois, avec M. Harrisse, que cette carte est ant^rieure h, la
grande expedition de Cavelier de la Salle et qu'elle est cons^quement tr^-
importante pour I'histoire de la geographie."

The following reference to Du Chesneau is from the Proceedings and transactions
of Ike Royal society of Canada, 2 ed. ser. v. 9, 1903, pp. 76-77:
"JACQUES ou CHESNEAU, quatri^me intendant.

" II y avait trois ans que le Canada n'avait pas d'intendant, quand M. Du Ches-
neau fut appele a ce poste, en 1675. Sa commksion est du 30 mai, de cette
ann^e. M. Du Chesneau, depuis dix ou douze ans, 6tait commissaire dans la
g6n6ralite de Tours; a la date de sa nomination a I'intendance du Canada, 11
6tait conseiller du roi, tresorier de France et general des finances de Touraine,
seigneur de la Doussimi^re et d'Ambault.

"Du Chesneau recevait douze mille livres par an d'appointements, comme
intendant. De plus, pour les frais de son deplacement, il recut trois mille
livres.

"Cette famille est originaire de Touraine. Guillaume Chesneau, chevalier,
seigneur des Breux, Montay, et la Doucinifere, ^chanson du roi, fils de Jean Du
Chesneau, (chevalier des dits lieux; chambellan de Charles vii) et de Robine

sieurs alliances entre les maisons Voyer d'Argenson et de Fum^e. Dans la
g^n^alogie Fum^e, Jean Du Chesneau, mari de Robine, est qualifi^ seigneur
des Pruneaux et de Montrie.

" M. Robert de la Lande, parent de Jacques du Chesneau 6tait d'un m^rite si
g^neralement reconnu que le 9 mars 1646, il fut pour\-u de la charge de sous-
gouverneur de Louis xiv.

"Les influences en cour de Jacques 6taient done trfes fortes, et c'est ce qui explique
comment il a pu rester sept ans en Canada malgr6 sea querelles avec ceux qui
I'entouraient, et les reprimandes et les censures souvent rt'petees du ministre.
Parmi les plus s^v5res, citons celles oil Colbert (2 juin 16S0) lui dit qu'il fera
mieux de repasser en France et se retirer k Tours, s'il n'est pas ri^Bolu h ex^cuter
ponctuellement les ordres qu'il lui donne, et (du 2 mai 1681) TavertLssant de
la part du roi que si son animosity contre M. de Frontenac ne cesse pas de suite,
la premiere lettre qu'il recevra sera celle de sa rc^vocation.
" Son intendance, enfin, se termine le 9 mai 1G82, et il repasse en France.
"Son fils, qui prenait le titre de chevalier, I'avait suivi en Canada.
"Les armes de cette famille se formaient comme suit: — D'azur, seme de besants
d'argent, au chevron d'or brochant sur le tout."

In Documents relating to the colonial history of the state of New Yorh, edited by
E. B. O'Callaghan, v. 9, are various reports and memoires by Du Chesneau
relating to his official career in Canada. In one dated nov. 13, 1681, is a com-
munication to m. de Seignelay, from which, p. 153, this statement is extracted:
"The foregoing has given me the idea, My Lord, of informing' you exactly of all
the nations from whom we obtain peltries; of their interests, and how to attract
all this trade. But as this subject is too extensive to be disposed of in one letter,
I shall prepare a special Memoir thereupon to be presented to you. I shall take
occasion to speak in it of Acadia, which is neglected; of the advantages to be
derived from that and the country inhabited by the English, and shall annex to
that Memoir the Map, divided into four parts, of all the places I shall mention.
I pray you, My Lord, to accept it as a present, indicative to you of my most
humble service. "

" Carle general [!] de la Caroline" . . . par le sieua [!] S[anson]" A copy of
this map with presumable date of 1685 is found described in the "List of

Note. — An impression of this map is foimd in the Library of Congress copy of
Thornton's Atlas maritimvs, without date but presumably about the date given
above. This atlas containing 23 maps is evidently in original condition. The
two maps added were taken from a second, imperfect copy belonging to Henry N.
Stevens, who has compared the present copy with the British Museum copy,
which he states has 28 maps but does not contain "England," " Zcloan,"
" Mediterranean Sea" or sea-coasts of " Barbary." Two of these are in the
present copy, the other two are added. "On the other hand the B. M. copy
has several maps not in either of the H. S. copies but some of the B. M. are
clearly later, one being dated 1702. From the evidence of these three speci-
mens it is clear that the contents of copies varied as issued from time to time.
Even the printed text exists in three separate impressions.

This Kohl reproduction contains this ms. description:

"^\'hen the Jesuit Salvatierra began (1697) his explorations and missionary
settlements in Old California, he was anxious to know, if this country was an
island, as it was represented to be on the maps of the time, or if it was connected
with the continent, as it was made to be on the ancient maps. He therefore
persuaded his friend the Father Kiihn, a German (whose name was changed by
the Mexicans to Kino) to ascertain this fact.

"Kino or Kilhn made for this purpose different exploring expeditions from
Sonora, where he had his mission. He travelled through the sandy, deserts,
which surrotind the Mar Vermejo towards the North-East. He reached the
Ghila and Colorado. He sailed down this river to its mouth, reached the oppo-
site side and marched "many miles" into the interior of the countrj' in a South-
em direction. But because he fell short of provisions and strength he could not
advance quite as far South as the Settlements and missions of his friend Salva-
tierra, and was obliged to return to Sonora (1701) Nevertheless Kino was con-
^^nced that California was not an island and so it was also proclaimed to be by
father Salvatierra though it was not proved "with all the desirable certainity."
Kino constructed a chart of the Northern end of the CaUfomia Gulf, on which
he put down his ideas and experiences, the rivers seen by him, the missions
founded by him: 'Mission of St. Clara 1698,' that of 'St. Pierre 1699,' and
that of 'S Dionysio 1700' on the Colorado.

" This map was pubHshed in Europe in the Lettres edifiantes and the present is
a copy of that publication. It has the following title: 'Passage par terre a la
CaUfornie. Decouvert par le Rev. Pere E. F. Kino, Jesuite, deptiis 1698 jusqua
1701' (Passage by land to California. Discovered by the Rev. Father E. F.
Kino a Jesuit from 1698 to 1701.) — The European geographers did by far not
correct at once their maps after Kino's views, partly because they did not
beheve in them, partly because they did not know them."
In an article by Jules Marcou entitled Notes upon tfie first discoveries of Cali-
fornia and the origin of its name, published in U. S. War department. Annual
report of the Secretary of War for the year 187S, v. 2, pt. 3, pp. 1648-1651, is an
interesting discussion, from which the following is extracted, relating to the
various maps of CaUfomia and showing the differing opinions as to its being
an island or peninsula:

' ' In the collection V of 'Lettres edifiantes el curieuses ccrites des Missions etrangh-es
par quelques missionaires de la Compagnie de Jesus, Paris, 1724,' is found a
memoir touching the condition of missions ... in CaHfomia . . . The memoir
was not printed tmtil 1724, and was published in 1725.

218 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

Kino, Eusebius Frangois — Continued.

"A map of the greatest imijortance in the history of California and of Arizona
accompanies this memoir. This map is entitled 'Passage par ierre a la Cali-
fornie decouvert par le Rev. Pere Euslhe Francois Kino, Jisuite, depuis 1698
jusqu' a 1701, oil Von voit encore les Nouvelles Missions desP. P. de la Compagnie
de Jesus.'

"As the editor stated in the epistle or preface, the map of Father Kno demon-
strated that California was not an island, but indeed a peninsula, which was
contrary to maps published at that period . . .

"Notwithstanding the discoveries of Uloa and Alarcon, many geographers
maintained that California was an island, and the maps of the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries, and even of the commencement of the eighteenth, show
various opinions upon this important geographical question. Upon some, Cali-
fornia is indicated as a peninsula, upon others as an island, and generally the
oldest maps of the sixteenth century are the most correct.
"In like manner the map of the world, by Sebastian Cabot in 1544, that of G<5rai-d
Mercator in 1569, and that of Abraham Ortelius in 1570, all indicate that Cali-
fornia is a peninsula. Even the maps of Michal Mercator in 1631, and of New
France by the Jesuit father Louis Hennepin in 1683, make it a peninsula.
"But from the beginning of the middle of the seventeenth century the idea that
California was an island generally predominated. It is thought that the author
who did the most to make that opinion prevail was the Dutchman Joannes
Janssonius of Amsterdam, who, in his atlas of the maritime world, gave a map
borrowed as he says, from the Spaniards, in which California is represented as
an island. All the geographers began to copy it. So upon the maps of North
America, by Nicolas Sanson, from 1650 to 1669, we read the island of California;
in like manner upon the maps of Jallot, 1674-1675; upon that of Potin of 1689,
and upon that of William Berry (North America) published in 1680.
"The geographer DuVal,in his maps of America in 1055, 167G, and 1679, shows
the island of California which he prolongs up to the Straits of Anian or Anien
(which has later become the Straits of Juan de Fuca). Vanden-Aa [!] about
the middle of the seventeenth century, gives also an island. Danckerts, of
Amsterdam, in his America Nova Descriptio, 1661, represents, in like manner,
California as an island, and so does the geographer AUard in the middle of the
seventeenth centvu*y. The Dutch geographer Blaer [!] who represented
California as a peninsula in 1662, made it an island in 1659 and 1670.
"New Mexico, by Coronelli in 1680, represents California as an island. The
large and magnificent globe of the same geographer dedicated to Louis xrv in
1683, and which is preserved in the National Library at Paris, also shows Cali-
fornia as an island. The same author writes upon a map, published at Venice
at the close of the seventeenth century, 'Isola di California. '
" Nicolas de Fer, who had made this error in a map in 1698, perpetuated it even
up to 1717, when in his map entitled 'Amcrigue divisee selon Vetendue de ses
prindpales parlies ' he still gives the island of California linuted on the north
by the North Strait and terminated at the south by Cape St. Luc (Cape Saint
Lucas)

" Of all the geographers at the close of the seventeenth and commencement of the
eighteenth century, Guillaume Delisle, first geographer of the King of France,
Louis XIV, ia the one who has shown himself the most sagacious. In a letter to
M. Cassini, without date, but which must have been written about the year
1698, and which was published at Amsterdam by Jean Frederic Bernard in the
'Recexteil de voyage au nord, ' Delisle shows a mind filled with sound criticism
and a clear knowledge of facts touching California. Delisle after having well
considered the matter, stated that he thought it prudent to leave blank, as

unknovm, that part of the globe, and to make California 'neither an island nor a
part of the continent, ' and to await something more positive before arriving at a
decision. He did not have to wait a long time for in his map of North America,
dated 1700, Delisle joined California to the continent, and he maintained that
California was a peninsula in his map of 1702. It is e\'ident that after the com-
mencement of the year 1700 Guillaume Delisle must have received information of
the discovery, by the Jesuit father Kino, of the passage by land from New
Mexico to California which this missionaiy had made during the year 1G98.
" Beginning with the maps of Guillaume Delisle, the truth triumphed. Soon
all map-makers adopted his opinion and made use of the famous discovery of
Father Kino, joining California as a peninsula to the American continent . . ."

Iberville's views relating to the maps of that region are expressed in this quota-
tion from the above work:

"In France his return was awaited with impatience. His reports aroused the
interest of science, the zeal of commerce, and encouraged the Government to
greater exertions. Iberville had carefully taken the latitude and longitude of
the places he had visited, and thereby revealed the reasons for the pre\'ious geo-
graphical errors as well as those of La Salle, who had abandoned himself to incor-

rect maps. He saj^s, ' All charts hitherto made have been drawn by people who
do not know the degrees of latitude and longitude nor how far places are from one
another and who do not count the turns and twists of the way.' Nevertheless
maps continued to be published for a number of years which gave the location
of the river incorrectly. "

In Pierre Margry's Dicourertes et itablusements des frangais . . . Quatrihne
partk. Decouverle par iner des houches du Misshdpi et Hahlissemmts de Le
Moyne d'lbennlk . . . Paris, 1880, are various references to maps used and
maps to be made by Iberville. In the letter of august 11, 1699, is this
reference: "J'ay donn6 ordre ^ M. Remy, qui copie la carte de la rivifere
du Mississipi et des environs, de vous I'envoyer de La Rochelle, aussitost
qu'elle sera faite. Je ne doute pas que vous ne I'ayez a pr&ent. "
In p. 315 reference is made to the " Fausses positions doun^es par les cartes. "
The letter of august 30, states: "J'ay receu la carte que vous m'avez fait
I'honneur de m'envoyer de la rivifere du Saint-Esprit; je ne Sfay qu' en
penser . . ."

In the "Memmre pour servir d'instruction au sieur d'Iberville, capitains de
fregate Icgire, commandant la Renommee," pp. 348-354- is found: "II rectifiera
les cartes qui en out est^ faites, fera en mesme temps des observations sur
les dangers de cette coste pour les esviter et sur ce qu'il y aura a observer pour
y na\-iguer seurement."

In a letter of julv 2, 1701, it is stated that "Le Sieur Remy Reno estoit embar-
qu6 avec moy sur la Badine pour lever les plans et cartes du pays oil je passerois,
ce qu"il ne fit point. "

These are all the statements relating to maps which are referred to in the various
reports and letters by Iber\'ille in this work of Margry. The manuscript map

description:

" ' En partant du Canada et de la Louisiane, en regardant sur les vieilles cartes
r^tendue des anciennes colonies fran^aises en Amerique, je me demandais
comment le gouvemement de mon pays avait pu laisser perir ces colonies qui
eeraient aujourd'hui pour nous une source inepuisable de prosp^rit^.
" ' Del'Acadieetdu Canada a la Louisiane, del'embouchuredu Saint-Laurent a
celle du Mississipi, le territoire de la Nouvelle-France entoura ce qui formait la
confi'deration des treize premiers Etats-Unis; les onze autres, avec le district
de la Colombie, le territoire de Michigan, du Nord-Ouest, du Missouri, de
rOregon et de I'Arkansas nous appartenaient ou nous appartiendraient comme
ils appartiennent aux Etats-L^nis par la cession des Anglais et des Espagnols,
nos successeurs dans le Canada et dans la Louisiane. Le pays compris entre
I'Atlantique au nord-ouest, la mer polaire au nord, I'ocean Pacifique et les
possessions russes au nord-ouest, le golfe mexicain au midi, c'est-a-dire plus
des deux tiers de I'Am^rique septentrionale reconnaitraient les lois de la
France.' (Chateaubriand, Mimoires d'outre-tombe, t. 1, p. 363)
"A cette questionquese pose I'auteur du Genie du Christianisine, il y auraitune
longue r^ponse a faire, car les causes de notre Eviction ont ^t6 multiples; con-
tenons-nous de signaler la politique maladroite de Louis xv qui lui a toujours
fait sacrifier I'interet commercial et colonial aux \'isees chimeriques qu'il
poursuivait en Europe; les secours insuffisants que le Ministere envoyait en
Amerique comparativement aux forces considerables qui y etaient accumulees
par I'Angleterre, enfin le petit nombre de nos colons qui, bien que s'c^tant
prodigieusement accru de 11,249 en 1688, a 25,000 en 1721 et a 54,000 en 1759,
furent litteralement ecrases par la superiorite num^rique de leur ennemis.
Bien d'autres raisons peuvent etre invoquees pour expliquer notre ^chec final
apres une periode d'acti\dte commerciale et de properite, mais cette exposition
nous entrainerait trop loin.

Franquelin, Jean Baptists Louis— Continued.

" Franquelin, I'auteurde la carte de la Nouvelle-France que nous reproduisons,
carte qui appartient au Depot de la Marine et niesure 0™,J)3 x 0™,44, noua
avertit qu'il a passe plus de vingt annees a la preparer et a parcourir les pays
qui y sont traces. De suite on s'aper^oit du soin qu'il y a apportS et de la
quantite consid(5rable de renseignements qu'il a mis en oeuvre. Elle est
extremement charg^e non seulement sur les cotes de la mer et sur les rives du
Saint-Laurent qui ^taient depuis longtemps occupies par nos colons, mais
aussi dans I'interieur des terres ou se rencontrent en quantity les nonis de
rivi&res et de lacs ainsi que de tribus indiennes. C'est en vain, croyons-nous
qu'on chercherait k cette i5poque une carte aussi riche en informations de toute
eorte et desainoe avec plus de soin.

"Mais cette pi^ceest absolument d^fectueuse et les vices de construction qu'on
y releve sont inh^rents S, toutes les representations de rAm^rique du Nord dues
k Franquelin. Ainsi, I'auteur nous donne le cours du Mississipi depuis sa
source qu'il place par 58° de latitude nord jusqu'a son embouchure; ce trac6
est absolument detestable, surtout dans la partie inferieure; il fait decrire au
fleuve deux angles compl(5tement fautifs puisque le Mississipi descend presque
tout droit jusqu'i la mer. Cette erreur grossifere pouvait se comprendre dans
les premieres cartes de Franquelin, voisines de la decouverte, il n'en est pas de
meme pour celle-ci qui date des demieres de sa vie. Si, dans le coin gauche,
au-dessous de I'l^^chelle, on aperroit la date de 1708, il faut que ces chiftres aient
6t6 ajoutfe posterieurement. En effet, la pi^ce est d(f'diee k Ponchartrain,
ministre et secretaire d'Etat; or celuici quitta en 1694 le poste qu'il occupait
pour devenir chancelier. Enfin nous savons qu'en 1708 Franquelin, comme
nous I'avons prouv6 plus haut, ^tait mort depuis onze ans. Peu apr&s cette
carte de Franquelin, Guillaume DeHsle avait public en 1700 et 1703 des cartes
de I'Amerique du Nord absolument superieures comme exactitude k celle qui
nous occupe. Si Delisle eut de bona renseignements, il ne put se pendant en
avoir de meilleurs que Franquelin, hydrographe du Canada. Sa carte de
Louisiane de 1718 sera relativement tris bonne et il en sera de mSme pour sa
carte de I'Amerique aeptentrionale de 1722. A quoi cela tient-il? sinon aux
connaissances math^matiques et astronomiques plus ^tendues de Delisle. A
cea quaUtes de premier ordre, nous le verrona ajouter I'erudition et un sens
critique tr&s fin et tr^s siir qui lui fera rejeter pour la carte d'Afrique la plupart
des informations tirees d'auteurs de I'antiquite, du moyen age ou modernes.
Sa carte sera absolument nettoyee de tous renseignements de seconde main et
il n'y Bubsistera plus que les r&ultats de voyages d 'explorations auxquels il
attachera cr^ance.

" Une autre faute de Franquelin, c'est d'avoir donn^ aux lacs int^rieurs trop
d'etendue. Peut-etre est-ce I'amour du detail, le d^sir d'etre complet et
d'utiliser tous lea renseignements qu'il poss^dait, qui I'aura fait s'6tendre sans
qu'il y prit garde. Malgr6 les d^fauts que noua signalons, cette carte, comme
les autres oeuvres de Franquelin, est habilement dessintfe et les omements en
sont ing^nieux. On sent toujours que le geographe est double d'un artiste."

"This is a copy of a map, which the celebrated French Geographer de I'lsle
composed, and which was published in Amsterdam by C6vens et Mortier. The
year of the publication is not indicated. But from the two circumstances 1.
that the date 1717 is still mentioned on the map (near Natchitoches), and 2.
that the Geographer of Queen Anne, II. Moll, copied this map already in the
year 1720 in England, it becomes very probable, that de I'lslecomposed his work
in the year 1718 or 1719.

Louisiana and of the course of the Missisippi, drawn after a great number of
memoirs, amongst others, after those of Mr. Le Noire. By William de I'lsle,
of the Royal Academy of sciences)

"It is no doubt the most remarkable and most interesting map of the Missisippi,
which we have of that time, and I believe that at the time being nobody could
make a better map of those regions. The routes of the principal Spanish and
French travellers through Florida, Louisiana and Texas are laid down upon it
evidently with a great deal of care and after much study. Particularly the
route of De Soto, I believe, never has been laid down in better harmony with
the reports, which we have on it. The routes of St. Denis in 1715 and 1716 and
of Cavelier 1687 may be considered aa authentic.

" It is the first tolerable map which we have of the rivers and coasts of Texas.
And all the French information of the Mississippi and the coast towards the
East of its mouth is carefully collected upon it. It is the first map on which we
find laid down the name Texas (los Teijas)

" It is also the first general map on which the Red River (Riviere Rouge) appears
in its true magnitude. The lower Ohio has still the name: 'Ouabache ou de
S. Jerome, 'and only the upper part of the river is called 'Ohio ou la belle
Rivifere' (the handsome river) J^or the first time xoe receive some information
about the two branches of the Ohio the Cumberland River (called on the map:
' Rivifere des anciennes Chouanons ') and of the Tenesee River (called on the
map: 'RivOredes Casquinambatix')

" Between those two rivers we see also mentioned the great barrens of Kentucky
in the following manner: 'Desert de six vint lieues d'ftendue, oil les Ilinois
font la chasse de boeuf ' (Desert of 26 leagues of extension in which the Ilinois
hunt the buffaloe)

" We may say, that this map is the mother and main source of all the later maps
of the Missisippi and of the whole West of the United States."

"Cette carte est plus remarquable par les itineraires et souvenirs historiciues

"He printed with C. Price, probably in 1710, ' Proposals for a new sett of Correct
Mapps.' In that year he issued, with Price and John Maxwell, maps of North

lectively in 1714 as ' The English atlas, ' under the joint names of Senex and
Maxwell. 'A new general alias' followed in 1721."

This same map with the same date 1710 without Maxwell's name, by John
Senex, f. r. s., is found described in his Modern geography, title 550 of PhiUips-
List of Geographical Athscs. Added to this map is the imprint: "Printed for
T. Bowles in St. Pauls Church Yard, John Bowles and Son, in Comhil, &
Robt Sayer in Fleet Street. ' ' According to this life Senex was made a fellow
of the Royal society, July 4, 1728, and therefore the impression of the map
with his name alone must have been a reprint.

A reproduction of this map is found in David Mills, A report on the boundaries
nf Ontario. S'; Toronto, 1873.

Note. — These large sheet maps of Moll were first published separately and

afterwards brought together as a collection in an atlas entitled The world

described: or, a new and correct sett of maps. Some were published with dates

and others without; the earliest 1709, the latest 1735 ?. Consult Phillips' List of

Geographical Atlases, title 554-

For information relating to Moll consult title 239. This map is dedicated in the
cartouche in the center "To the Honourable Walter Dowglass Esqr Constituted
Captain General and Chief Governor of all y* Leeward Islands in America by
her late Majesty Queen Anne in y« Year 1711."

Under this, the date of publication, 1715, is given, which may account for the
statement in the Dictionary of national biography.

In this life of Moll, an edition of 1711 is mentioned which is also given under
that date in the British Museum catalogue. This is no doubt erroneous cata-
loguing. The inset in this map of Louisiana shows from the following that
this impression was made after 1730: ''Chereries 3000 men, one of ye kings &c
of this Nation was in England in 1730. ' ' The original impression of 1715, a copy
of which is in the British Museum, has not this "Chereries."
The three impressions in the Library of Congress have the imprint . . . "Tho:
Bowles . . . John Bowles . . . and by I, King ..."

In the Library of Congress collection is a map with various references to
captain Tho. Nairn, which is not mentioned in this "List" and which is suffi-
ciently important to be described here. It is:

"A Compleat Desaiption of the Province of Carolina in 3 Parts. 1st The
Improved Part from the Surveys of Maurice Mathews <fc M. John Love. Sly
the West part by Capt. Tho. Nairn, .ily A Chart of the Coast from Virginia
to Cape Florida. Published by Edw. Crisp. [Imprint from the dedication
cartouche] Sold at the Carolina Coffee House in Birchtn Lane London. En-
graved by lohn Harris in Bull-Head Court Newgate Street London. [7777?]"
This is a fine colored copy. The only other known copy of this rare map is in
the Public record office, London, but it is in bad condition and in places de-
fective. In the present copy the size of the paper is 39 x 32J which gives a
margin of } to J inch all round. The map itself consists of four sheets of various
sizes printed apparently from four separate plates and then joined up. The
title is in two lines in very large letters engraved on two narrow plates and
printed on two slips of paper joined end to end and then parted at the top of
the map. The sections are then joined up. The main map is comprised in
sheets 2 & 3 with the coast line running diagonally, as it were, through the two.
The title to sheets 2 & 3 is in an ornamental cartouche in the top left comer of
no. 2. The design is a pedestal with curved sides tapering to the top, support-
ing the great seal of the Lords Proprietors. The dedication is on the face of
the pedestal, " To His Excellency William, Lord Craven Palatine, The Most
Noble Henry Dulce of Beaufort . . . and the rest of the True and Absolute
L^ & Proprietors of the Province of Carolina This Mapp is humbly dedicated
by Edw. Crisp." Then follows the scale, beneath which is a note in two lines
as to the productions of the country, followed by the imprint as given above.
Sheet 2 occupies a space 22 x 19^ and in the lower right comer is an inset of
irregular shape, lOJ x 11, "A plan of the Town <t Harbour of Charles Town"
with lettered and numbered references A-W and 1-1.5. Sheet 3 measures
IGi X 20| and has in the top left comer an inset, 7J x 5|, " The Town and Har-
bour of St. Augustine." Sheets 1 and 4 are apparently intended as insets to
the main map. No. 1 measures IfiJ xB| and the title is in the top left comer,
"A Map of South Carolina shewing the Settlements of the English, French &
Indian Nations from Charles Town to the River Mississipi by Capt Tho. Nairn."
Sheet no. 4 measures 22 x lOi and the title is in the top right hand comer, "A
new Chart of the Coast of Carolhia and Florida from Cape Henry to the Havana
. . . described by Capt Tho. Nairn and others." The date 1711 has been given
to this map for two reasons. Firstly, because William, Lord Craven to whom it
is dedicated was chosen Lord Palatine on jan. 16, 1707-8 and died oct. 9, 1711.
Secondly, because in the original ms. minute book of the Proprietors of Carolina,
vol. 7 N. C, preserved in the Public record office, London, appears the fol-
lowing entry : "June 1711 ordered that mr E. Crisp be paid 10 guineas for hia
map of Carolina and the draught of Port Royal. Order'd that six hundred
acres of land be directed to be admeasured and set out for the said Crisp in South
Carolina, signed by the Lord Carteret for himself and the Palatine", &c &c.

Moll, Herman— Continued.

There is a eubsequent entry under July 18, 1715 when in a Petition, with 23
other eisjnatories, to the Comrs of Trade and Plantations concerning the Insur-
rection of the Indians and the deplorable condition of the Colony, Crisp de-
scribes himself as "a Merchant trading to Carolina."
A review of this map is found in the London daily journal, October 14, 1730:
"Mr. Nairn's Map of Carolina is a very defective one; and indeed the whole of
that Gentleman's Map (tho' a Commissioner for the Indian Trade) is full of
Errors: The Coast is wrong laid down, the Rivera drawn at random, and par-
ticularly the Watteree River is there made to run into the Sea, whereas it runs
into the Santee River above 100 Miles up the Country; in short, there is not
any one Map, or any one Account that has been hitherto published of that
Coimtry, that can be depended upon, the Descriptions being taken by Hear-
say, or by very ignorant Persons, who have hitherto made Journals of that
Country.

"Near the Santee River, the General Atlas makes Soto, in the year 1540, travel
over the Mountains as high as the Appalachean Mountains, whereas at that
particular Spot of Ground, it is Pine Flat Land, the lowest in the Province."
Captain Thomas Nairn died in 1715. He was the author of a pamphlet entitled
A Letter from South Carolina. S". ionrfon, 7770, and later editions. A copy
of this work is in the Library of Congress.

The map of the fort gives no names to the various parts indicated. Like all
the other manuscript maps in this manuscript copy of de La Harpe's Journal
historique, this map is well drawn and colored. It is used to illustrate de La
Harpe's account in the Journal of the taking of the fort at Pensacola by the
french may 14'.'', 1719, and the retaking of it by the Spaniards on the e'."" of
august, also the second siirrender of it to the french on September l?'."" In
the title of the map of the fort, the retaking of it by the Spaniards is noted as
august 5'?, while in the text it is given as august 6'.'' This map is found in
a manuscript copy of the Journal historique . . . de Bernard de la Harpe,
made by Jean de Beaurain and, according to the title-page, presented to the
king. There are other copies of this manuscript but no other copy contains the
maps, which are therefore of unusual interest. There is little doubt that the
maps were also made by Beaurain, who was geographer to the king.
A notice of Jean Beaurain, 1696-1771, is found in Nouvelle biographie generale.

A Ust of Beaurain's " Cartes particuliires " is contained in Nicolas Lenglet Dufres-
noy's Methode pour Hudier la geographic. 3e ed. Paris 1142, v. 1, pt. 2, pp.
247-250. The following notice of Serigny is from Frederic de Kastner's Eeroi
de la Nouvelle- France . . . Quebec, 1902, 3d ser., p. SO:

"Joseph Lemoyne, sieur de Serigny, n6 en 1668, etait le sixifeme fila de Charles
LemojTie et fut un marin distinque. La decouverte de la conspiration de
Cellamare ayant amene une guerre entre I'Espagne et la France, Serigny prit
une part brUlante aux operations de la Floride et de la Louisiane. Pendant
que son jeune frere, Chateauguay, a la tete de 700 Canadiens et sauvages,
attaquait Pensacola du c6t6 de la terre, Serigny I'attaqua par mer le 15 mai
1719, et le fort fut emporte. Les Espagnols ayant debauche une partie de la
gamison le reprirent en juiUet. lis essayerent aussi de reprendre I'ile Dauphine,
mais en furent repousses apres une briUante resistance de Serigny qui hit fait
capitaine de vaisseau. II mourut en 1734, gouvemeur de Rochefort et il y
aurait encore de ses descendants en France. Un Lemoyne se distingua au
combat de Sidi-Ferruch qm preceda la prise d'Alger en 1830."

This plan was probably made by m. St. Denis who was connected with this
expedition. See also title 289 for references to Serigny. Consult also a map

Note. — This map, one sheet of the two sheet map relating to the northern por-
tion, is found in Chatelain's Atlas historique, 1705-1720, v. 6, dated 1719, and
also in the later edition of 1732-1739, v. 6, dated 1732.

Consult Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases for a description of this atlas, titles

The map was copied from Nicolas de Fer's fifteen sheet map, published in 1713,
entitled "Carte de la mer du Svd & de la mer du Nord ov, se trovent les Cartes
d'Amerique, d' Asie, d' Europe & d'Afrique, situees sur ces mers. This map of
de Fer is reviewed in Memoires de Trevovx. Mai, 1713, pp. 926-927.
The following translation of this review is foimd in Memoirs of literature . . .
2d erf. London, R. Knaplock, 1722. v. 7, p. 26:

"Mr. de Fer, well known by his Atlas, and by a great Number of particular Geo-
graphical Maps, published by him for many Years past, has lately put out a
Map of the South-Sea, which may be said to be more Curious and Valuable than
any other. That Map contains all the Coasts of America, both in the South-Sea
and the North-Sea, attended with many Ornaments. One may see in the upper
Part of it the Cuts of Christopher Columho, Americo Vesputio, Magellan, and
other Famous Travellers, who first discovered that Noble Part of the World. At
the Bottom of that Map, the Author not contented to insert an Extract of the
Voyages of le Maire, Oliver du Nord, and James VEermite, describes also the
South-Sea, the Traverse of that Sea, especially from Acapulco to Manilla, and
the Streights of Magellan, and le Maire. The whole is adorned with Plans of
Towns, and Forts, Plants, Animals, and many other Particulars, This Map
consists of Fifteen Sheets, but it may be reduced into a small Volume in 4fo."

Note. — A photographic reproduction of this map is in the collection of the
Library of Congress. The following description is taken from R. Thomassy's
Geologie pratique de la Louisiane . . . Nouvelle-Orleans et Paris, 1860, pp.
21^-213:

"Cette carte de Serigny est, sans comparaison, la plus importante pour I'etude
des cotes de la Louisiane et du littoral appartenant aujourd'hui aux Etats du
Mississipi et de I'Alabama; nous I'avons reproduite jusqu'S, la baie de Pensa-
cola inclusivement {PI. ii) la portion plus k Test ^tant sans int^rgt pour la
Louisiane. Elle donne a V He b. la Come le nom d'/fe h Bienville, qui m^riterait
bien de lui etre restitue, et montre I'^tonnante longueur qu'avait alors I'lle
Dauphine. Celle-ci, dont I'lle Petit Bois n'avait point encore 6t6 d^tachee,
comptait plus de vingt milles de long, en attendant d'etre couple en deux par
quelques tempetes, comme nous le verrons repr6sent6 sur la carte du chevalier
De Novan, en 1769.

"Quant aux eondages de la carte Serigny, 11 ne faut point s'^tonner de leur
nombre, car lis indiquaient le seul moyen qu'on eUt alors de se reconnattre en
approchant des bouches du Mississipi. Les navires allaient droit d'abord dans
ce qu'on appelait Venfoncement du golfe du Merique, et aprfe avoir reconnu la
cote, ils venaient se presenter en vue des lies au Vaisseau et Chandeleurs.
C'estainsi qu'ils ^vitaient 'le risque de tomberdans I'ouest,' comme I'avaient
fait De la Salle et M. de Beaujeu.

" La note, relative i ce mode de reconnaissance, est tir^e d'un m^moire manuscrit
des memes Archives; et je I'ai guillemet^e sur la carte, pour indiquer qu'elle
ne fait point partie de I'original. J'en dis autant de tout ce qui est, ici ou
ailleurs, entre deux parentheses: ce sont des extraits de cai'tes et documents
contemporains, dont je me reserve de citer exactement les soiirces dans I'^di-
tion amMcaine de ce travail.

"Un dernier trait caractdristique de la carte Serigny, et le plus important de
tous, est la forme qu'offraient alors les bouches du Mississipi, d'apr&s le relfeve-
ment de cet ingdnieur. Ainsi, une passe sud-ouest dtait nettement tracde,
mais beaucoup plus courte que celle d'aujourd'ui et en outre impassable.
Quant h la bouche actuelle du sud, elle 6tait encore k sortir du chaos des radeaux
et des terrains mouvants, et les colons songferent encore moins k elle qu'i la
pr6c6dente. Serigny, qui avail donnd eon nom k la premiere passe, i)arce

qu'il I'avait decouverte, n'y avait trouv6 que 7 et 10 pieda d'eau. Or, 4 la

difference de celle-ci, la passe de Test avait 10, 14, 16, 18 pieds d'eau; ce qui

la fit considerer, d5s le d^but, comme la seul bouche du Miasissipi, et fit passer

les autres sous un complet silence.

" Les conditions impraticables de ces demiferes firent que les cartes espagnolea

appliquferent tantot k celle du sud-ouest, tantot ^ celle du sud, ou bien h. toutea

les deux r^unies, la denomination de Cabo de lodo ou Cap de boue. II ^tait

difiicile, a coup silrd'y mieux caracteriser les monticules boueux (Mud-lumpa)

qui n'ont jamais cess^ d'y cr^er des embarras a la navigation.

"Ajoutons, quant k la passe de Test, qu'elle n'^tait encore form^e que par de

petites ilea en pleine mer, sentinelles avanc^es de la formation du terrain actuel . ' '

The reproduction in this work of Thomassy has two insets: " Vue de la Nouvelle

Orleans en 1719," and "Embouchures du Mississippi d'apris Guillaume Delisle

Juin 1718."

The Library of Congress has a manuscript map, probably made about 1732,

which includes a portion of the coast described in this title and is called:

"Carte de la c6te de la Louisiane depuis la baye St. Joseph, jusqu'il celle de Si.

Note. — Thomassy says of this map:

"L'annee 1720 6tait celle ou, aprfes la fondation de la Nouvelle-Orleans depuia
1717, on songeait a la proteger en fortifiant I'entr^e du fleuve. Aussi est-ce en vue
de ces grands int^rets que semble avoir ete dressee la carte en question. C'est
du moins ce qu'indique son cartouche, representant la cite naissante et les
benches du fleuve, ou il s'agissait d'etablir le port et la place maritime dont la
carte suivante donnera le plan detaill6."

This map is in a manuscript copy of the Journal historique . . . de Bernard
de La Harpe, made by Jean de Beaurain and according to the title-page,
presented to the king.

There are other copies of this manuscript but no other copy contains the maps,
which are therefore of unusual interest. There is little doubt that the maps
were also made by Beaurain, who was geographer to the king.
The map is beautifully drawn and colored. It shows North America as far
north as the headwaters of the Mississippi river, west of the Mississippi to the
Pacific ocean, and to a considerable distance east of the river; in the south to a
line through Mexico just south of Yucatan.

Along the Mississippi river and its tributaries and the gulf of Mexico the map
shows considerable detail. Many streams, mountains, and towns appear, also
forts and Indian ^^llages. In the western part there is no detail except along
the coast, while in Mexico there is considerable. There are many islands off
the coast of Yucatan, each indicated by name.

The routes of m. de la Harpe in his travels are shown, also; "Route de m. de
St. Denis en 1717; Route de mr du Tisne en 1719; Route faite en 1720 par SOO
espagnols dont 75 ont esteluts pay les Pantimaha et Otoctata suv les bords de la r
des Cancer."

There is a short list of explanations of the emblems used in the map to indicate
the character of the settlements.

In Henri Marie Auguste Berthaut's Les ingenieurs geographes mililaires 1624-lSSl .
Paris, 1902. v. 1, p. 16, the following reference is made to Beau\-illiers:
"Enfin, plusieurs ingenieurs furent envoy 6s aux colonies, tant pour y ex^cuter
des lev^s topographiques que pour y 6tudier des projets de fortifications. La
carte des lies du Saint- Laurent, avec les forts, fut dress^e en 1724 par de Beau-
villiers. On leva les cotes de la Louisiane, le cours du Mississipi dans cette
region (1722), le delta du Mississipi, la Nouvelle-Orl^ans (1722), etc."
Gabriel Marcel, in his work entitled iJeprorfiichows cfe cartes <t (fc 5r?o6es . . . avec
texte explicatif . . . Paris, 1894, in the chapter entitled "Plan de la Nouvelle-
Orleans," p. 116, says:

"Deux ans auparavant, le Sieur de Beauvilliers, gentUhomme servant du roi

acter of the land.

A translation of de La Harpe's Journal historique, appears in v. 3, of French's
Eistorical collections of Louisiana, and the following extracts are made from
this english translation:

"He [m. de la Salle] embarked ... in 1684 for the Mississippi river, but by
sailing too far to the west, he missed its mouth, and landed in a bay which he
called St. Louis, where he built a fort and established a colony on the banks of
the Guadaloupe river, in the month of February, 1685. From thence he went
in search of the Mississippi river by land a second time, and while engaged in
this undertaking, he was inhiunanly murdered by one of his companions. The
colony left by him were in part kUled by the Indians, and the remainder carried
off by a detachment of Spaniards from the new kingdom of Leon, under the
command of Don Gregorio Salinas Baronas."

"At Natchitoches he [m. de La Harpe]was informed that don Martin de Alar-
conne . . . had arrived from the Rio (Bravo) del Norte, where he had established
several missions, and a post at Espiritu Santo bay, in the vicinity of the rivers
Guadaloupe and St. Mark."

This map made probably by Jean de Beaurain, gives no detail in the interior.
It shows an igland called "Isle de la Harpe," at the entrance to the harbor.
Through the entrance to the harljor the soundings are given, and to the north
the point of land opposite the end of "Isle de la Harpe," is called "Fontaine."-
On the land to the west, the following note is given: "II peut auoir dans cette
ouuerture de Baye quelques Enfoncemens ou Riuiferes dont on n'a p(i prendre
connoissance."

To the east on a point of land, there are two small bodies of water marked,
"Etangsd'eau douce," and farther north the region is marked "Pays de nations
errantes et antropophages."

M. de La Harpe made an expedition to form a settlement at St. Bernard's bay,
lea-\ang Fort Saint Louis on august 16, 1721. "He sailed along the coast west

of the Mississippi for one hundred leagues or more, and on the 27 august entered
a fine bay which he believed to be St. Bernard's situated in 29° 15' n lat."
This however was Port Franfois, St. Bernard's bay being farther west.
[3] R. des Ouachitas. 16 x 11. Map without title. Probably by Jean de
Beaurain. Shows river called "R. des Ouachitas," emptying into the "R.
Rouge" some distance from the point where the Red river empties into the
Mississippi.

The Mississippi river is shown from a point south of the mouth of the Red river,
as far north as Natchez, that being the only point indicated by name. South-
east of the Mississippi, a region occupied by the Tonica Indians is indicated
by the name, " Les Tonica."

The course of the Red river is followed as far as a village named " Tasnoucovr
goula ou Ajoiielle." Following the course of the "R. des Ouachitas" from its
mouth, the first stream which is given a name is " Ruisseau" which counecta
the "R. des Ouachitas"' with the Mississippi.

Farther along the "R. des Ouachitas," comes the "habitation de m. de Vill-
mont," then a point in the river marked "Rapide," near to the mouth of a
stream called "R. aux Boeufs''. Next comes the "habitation de mrs. des
Marches et de Mezieres," and last of all the "habitation de m. de Cantillon."
This region was \dsited by m. de Bienville in 1700.

titles 536, 538 and 541, mentioned in this collection, which are copied and iu

the collection of the British Museum. They are evidently out of chronological

place in this list and are described in connection with this title. The date

1770, in title 538, is the year in which this map was reduced from the original.

Lanzas, in his work above mentioned, describes six maps by Barreiro. Two

of the maps mentioned in this collection are nos. 121 and 122. No. 538 does

not seem to be mentioned but it was probably compiled by Surville from

Barreiro's various maps.

On October 15, 1T22, Juan de Acuna, marques de Casafuerte arrived in Mexico
as thirty-seventh viceroy of New Spain. He is said to have been one of the
best of all the representatives of royalty, being remembered in the history of
the country as the 'Great Governor.' He died in 1734 at the age of seventy-
seven. For further information consult H. H. Bancroft's Mexico, v. S, pp.
349-351.

For a notice of Pedro Rivera Villalon consult Jos6 Mariano Beristain de Souza'a
Biblioteca hispano-americana septentrional . . . Mexico, 1821, p. 37.
A description of this work is given, with the following note, in Jos6 Toribio
Medina's La imprenta en Guatemala {1660-1821) Santiago de Chile, 1910,
p. 85:

"Rivera salio de Mexico el 21 de No\-iembre de 1724 y solo vino & regresar el
29 de Junio de 172S, habiendo andado en todo 3,082 leguas. En el 'Diario'
describe dia por dia cuanto'\'i6 en el ^•iaje, situaciongeogrdiica de lo3 lugares,
costumbres de los habitantes, producciones del suelo, etc."
The Librarj-of Congress has a copy of Rivera's work entitled: Diario y derrotero
de lo caminado, visto, y obcenado en el discurso de la visita general de precidios,
situados en las proiincias yntemas d Xueva Espana, que dc orden de Su Magestad
executd D. Pedro de Riiera. . . Guathemala, S. de Arehalo, 1736.
In the first page of this Diario, Rivera says:

"Como para el conocimiento de log RejTios y Provincias lo demuestran en \'n
Piano los Geographos: describo yo en este Mapa el estado de las Pro\'incias,
que andube, y reconocicon la experiencia practica, para que ala primera \'i5ta,

todas las partes q iorman aquel compuesto, y de lo prolixo de mi peregrinacion,
ala que me destino la obediencia."

From this paragraph it seems that a map should accompany this work, but no
map appears in any of the copies which are mentioned. Frequent references
are made throughout the text to Francisco Alvarez Barreiro, most of them
showing that he was directed to make certain maps and plana of the various
provinces inspected.

Quarterly of the Texas state historical association for July 1904, the Revista
of Rivera is given, pp. 37-40.

There is a second title to the lower southern half of the same

map: Nova Isthmi Americani, qui et Panamiensis item Dariensis,

Tabvla in qua Vrbes Porto Bello, Panama et Carthagena, verissimis

tlu-ee msets, one of which is: A Draught of St. Augustine and its

Harbour (and with a French title) Definition de St. Augustin avec

ses Terres circonvoisines Ports Profondeurs. 11x13.5 cms. Both

large and small maps are interesting. The larger shows the Florida

Peninsula. lc 323

Note. — This map is made up of two of the Ottens maps — Cuba as the upper

half, and the Isthmus of Panama as the lower. They were evidently intended

to be so joined as they fit exactly, including the route track of the galleons

which runs through both.

A copy of this map containing the first title is in the collection of the Library
of Congress, dated 1745?

The second title belongs to a map described in R. & J. Ottens' Atlas minor,
described in title 616 of Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases. The reason for
this date is given in the note.

The inset of St. Augustine in the first map is based upon the inset in the map
by Moll, of the West Indies about 1715.

Note. — This map is translated into latin from Delisle's map published in 1722
which is a revised edition of his 1703 map entitled: "Carte du Mexiqxu et de
la Floride." Consult title 313 for this original french edition.
This latin impression by Seutter was taken from Homann's Grosser atlas, 1737,
described in Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 5S6, and is also found in
other editions of his atlas. It is entitled "Regni Mexicani seu Novae His-
panix . . ." It contains in place of the inset of harbors a sketch of traders
bartering with Indians. The Pieter Schenk impression which is earlier than
the Homann, is entitled " Tabula Mexicae et Floridae." It differs in the omis-
sion of the engraving.

An exact reproduction of this map in all its points has the name of Letter in
place of Seutter. In the inset to Seutt«r's impression, entitled "Bahia Portus
Belli", is the following: "Admiralis Vernon Bachiam intrans d. 21 Xovembr.

The Library of Congress has two impressions of this latin edition of Delisle's

map, both containing the " Annotatio" below the "Scalx." One copy has the

imprint "apud Tobiam Conr: Lotter Calcographum." The other is in Tobiaa

Conrad Lotter's Atlas novus, 1756f This impression has the imprint "apud

Tobiam Conr. Lotter Geogr. et Calcogr." The original edition of 1700 has the

" Avertissement " in a cartouche under the scale. The latest date found in this

atlas is 1740 in the cartouche to the map entitled "Borussix Regnum." The

following are reasons for dating this atlas as above:

Matthaus Seutter died in 1756. One son Albrecht Carl, and two daughters

survived him. One of these daughters married Tobias Conrad Lotter in 1740;

the other married Georg Balthazar Probst, the engraver. The firm, after

Seutter's death was continued for a short time by his son, Lotter and Probst.

The son died and Probst retired leaving Lotter the head of the firm. T. C.

Lotter was bom in 1717 and worked for Seutter from the time he married his

daughter. His son, Matthaus Albrecht Lotter. born 1741, succeeded his father

in 1777.

Nagler, in his Kunstler lexicon, gives a notice of a Johann Balthasar Probst,

b. 1673, d. 1748, who was a pupil of J. Wolff, whose daughter he married. Jere-

mias Wolff died at Augsburg in 1724 in the 51st year of his age.

This edition contains the "Ava-lissemeiit" , or in latin "Annotatio'-, in a car-

touche underneath the scale.

In an obituary notice in the Gentleman's Magazine for 1743 it is stated that
"At Bordeaux Henrj" Popple, Esq., formerly Cashier to the late Queen and
agent to several regiments" died September 27, 1743.

A one-sided review of this map of Popple is the following taken from The
memorials oj the english and french commissaries concerning the limMs oj Nova
Scotia or Acadia. London, 1155, pp. 277-27S:

"As to Mr. Popple's Map, the French Commissaries have no other Authority
from any Circumstances attending the Publication of that Map, for supposing
that it was made under the Inspection or Patronage of the Board of Trade,
or for representing ilr. Popple as a Person whose Situation should give addi-
tional Credit to it; than that Mr. Popple has said in the Margin of his Map,
that he undertook that Work with the Approbation of the Lords Commissioners
of Trade and Plantations, who might very well approve o/ such an Undertaking
but who never superintended or approved of Mr. Popple's Manner of executing
it. ilr. Popple inserted this marginal Note merely to secure a better Recep-
tion to his Work; he does not pretend in it, that the then Board of Trade had
never approved ot anything farther than the Undertaking, his Map was framed
according to his own particular Notions; he published it upon his own single
Authority; the Board of Trade at the Time gave it no extraordinary Sanction.
It is inconsistent with the very Records it pretends to have copied; it came
into the World as the Performance of a single Person; it has ever been thought
in Great Britain to be a very incorrect Map, and has never in any Negociation
between the two Crowns been appealed to by Great Britain, as being correct,
or a Map of any Authority.

"But if the French Commissaries could make this Map to have been the Work
of a Servant of the English Government directed at the time by the Board of
Trade, what Evidence could they draw from it, of any Effect in the present
Discussion? "

The governor of Cuba sent don Antonio de Arredondo, royal engineer in the
army of his majesty, the king of Spain, to St. Augustine for the purpose of
examining and inspecting the fortifications and recommending measures for
the best possible defense. This plan and the plans described in titles 344-349
were evidently made to accompany his report. It is here copied from the ms.
translation in the Library of Congress, which though full of errors is of suffi-
cient interest to give in full. The Library has also his plan described in
title 344, which measures 42^ x 86 inches.

"To THE Governor: I must also inform you that from Cape Canaviral to
further north of Carolina, not a stone is to be found, (except upon our own
Island of Santa Anastasia of which I will speak further on) the whole tract being
of a sandy soil, and that of the Islands of very small stones — The soil of the
main land is compond partially of the same gravel, and pai'tly of thick lands —
There are some very good clays, very suitable for the manufacture of brick and
tiles — This being the only material that the English can use in building forti-
fications, and more so when they have quite handy immence quantities of
oyster shells to make lime with, which is the best and finest— superior to any
other lime —

"All the lands that I have seen are low and flat and abundant in pines, and some
higher lands with cypress, oaks, ash, and other useful timbers— Also a variety
of herbs, among them some of medicinal virtue— The country appears to be
well stocked with horned catde and wild horses, and all sorts of game, such as
deer, wild turkeys, and many sorts of feather birds — As far as water is con-
cerned, it can be easily procured, as by digging a little, it is found very sweet
and fresh, although muddy —

"There are plenty furious leopards and poisonous snakes —
" By the plan of San Agustin and its suburbs you have seen how exposed and
defenceless is the condition of that city— The wall that siurounds it, if such
can be called, is composed of Cactus and plants, as you have noticed— The
Fort, which is built at the northern extreme of the city, is incapable of sustain-
ing twenty-four hours of living, although its walls are in good condition and are
thick and strong, yet the interior works are very much deteriorated, the rooms
that form the lower part of the four bastions, are crumbling down owing to the
joists being rotten— Those Bastions should be built upon regular stone arches—
To this must be added that its accommodations are too small to shelter all the
neighborhood in the event of an approach by the enemy —
"And for this reason, as well as because it is unprotected on the land side, I have
projected and ordered the building of a covered causeway, which will cover the
Fort on that side, and will have accommodation for many people who seek its

THE LOWEBY COLLECTION 271

shelter — The construction of which will be at the expense of all the inhabitants
of that city who have readily assented to it, being desirous of the preservation
of that Fort, and protection of their families — Subject however, to the money
being returned to them whenever II M. grants an appropiation for that pur-
pose— All of which is of reccord in the proceedings of the Council of War,
which for that purpose was held, at my suggestion, and which proceedings were
approved and signed by the Governor —

"The Island of Santa Anastasia is situated to the east of the city, which by its
own shape on the west side forms the river and anchorage for vessels — The said
Island is five leagues in length, by one and three quarters leagues in width —
Its soil is of a sort of shell stone (coquina) of a very good quality and easily to be
taken out, with the advantage that the sun and air hardens it — The solidity of
which is proven by the walls of the Fort which are built of the same kind of
stone — Xo other kind of stone is to be found anj-where within those provinces,
as I have already said before —

" In the centre of that Island there used to be a Chapel with its tower built of
stone, which however had never been consacrated, built of the same kind of
stone, which that Governor has transformed in a guard house, and as a look out,
for which purpose he has had the tower elevated, from which, vessels coming
to the Port or passing by are signalled —

"To the extreme south point of that Island, the bar of Mantazas is situated,
where there is a guard stationed but without any shelter whatsoever — This is
abandoned to the insult of any class of enemies — That guard is intended to
give ad\'ise of any vessel that may come in that direction, being in communica-
tion with another bar, which is situated a league further south, named, Del
Penon, where another guard is located, also without any means of defence —
but with the same risks and duties of the others already mentioned —
"Although it is true that the entrance to these bars are narrow and of little depth
of water for vessels of large draught, yet \\-ith eight feet of water that they have,
it is quite sufficient for small vessels — Hence I judge it necessary that on both
of these bars, a lookout tower be built, with the necessary defence and protec-
tion for the guards thereof, for the better ser\-ice of the object intended —
" In regard to the frontiers, I have already mentioned to you how far our limits
should be extended, the lands of which, owing to their ha\-ing been abandoned
by the Spaniards and never inhabited by them have been easily gotten posses-
sion of by the English, as far as the river San Juan itself — So that, at present,
even if I do not wish to, I can only give the title of frontiers to the limits of the
said river San Juan — As from it to the South, on the coast, we derive no bene-
fit—In regard to this matter, I must say to you, that the said river is of great
importance— In some places it has a width of three quarters of a league, and
na^-igable owing to the depth of its channel — which varies between four, three
and a half and three fathoms of water, and communicable as far as Cape Viz-
caino in the Bahama channel, although vrith much less water on that part, and
only navigable for canoes and flat pirogues — That river is entirely defenceless,
and has been explored by all sorts of sailors — Beginning at its mouth or bar, of
the same name, which is only protected by a hut built of palmetto, four yards
in length by two and a half in width, and so delapidated that it is painful to
look at it, and in which four cavalry soldiers with their horses are posted — who
attend to guard duty weekly — Under this understanding, and it being so
important the guarding of the said mouth and bar which has a depth of from
eighteen to 20 feet of water, besides being a secure harbor, and from which the
enemy might attack by land the city of San Agustin, I have projected the
building of a closed batterj- with eight guns, with corresponding quarters for a
force of thirty men, and other accessories according to the location which I left
marked out, as you will see by the plan of the same —

272 LTBRAKY OF CONGRESS

Arredondo, Antonio de — Continued.

"I have also examined the creek of Santa Cruz which runs between the main
land and the Island of San Juan, from southwest to south, emptying into the
main river, opposite the ravines of San Mateo (according to the course and
reckoning brought by Maekey in the year 1702 and one Palma in the year 1728
when they came to besiege San Agustin) — Really it is a most suitable place
for an enemy to penetrate through, unobserved, as on our side it is deserted;
a grave inconvenience, which in my opinion must be remedied and which can
easily be done —

" Further up the river, about six leagues from the aforesaid ravines, there is a
narrow road called San Nicolas, and a similar one still further up called San
Geronimo, both of which are ordinarily used by the Indians, infidels, and
enemies, to come, as they do at their pleasure, to harrass the Spaniards, or the
Indians of our devotion, without anyone being able to prevent it, as it is every
day experienced —

" Further to the south, southwest, at about 18 leag^ies from the mouth of the bar,
and at about eight from the city of San Agustin, on each side of the river, there
is a sentry box built of boards, eight feet in diameter, named respectively
5upe and Picolata, both of them surrounded by a palisade, very small and
light — I saw them myself, and I can vouch that they are ready to crumble
down owing to the supports being completely rotten, at the lower part — So
that it can easily be seen how unfit they are to show the least resistence or
defence against even a small force — Not only on account of their defective
construction and size, but also on account of their delapidated Condition —
Each one is garrisoned by a squad of eight men, hardly large enough to hold
them — There are also two Swivel guns which are used to protect the courriers
and the passengers who go and come from Apalache by land, (as it can be seen
on the plan) while they cross the river from one side to the other on piroques, as
they are often harassed by the Indians while in the act of crossing —
"Finally, I beg to inform you that on the margins and environs of all the juris-
diction that has remained free from the English, there is an abundance of large
and tall trees, and all very useful for the construction of houses and vessels —
Also any amount of wild fruit-s — Plain and smooth roads, but difficult in some
places — Very sweet waters and very clear clayish soil, — chalky and of other
qualities —

"I reccomend that twelve guns be sent from here to that city, with triplicate
ammunition and equipments, to form flying batteries wherever they may be
needed — together with a large quantity of powder, — a supply of the two sizes
of balls — for the guns — and musket balls — rope, fuses, and other corresponding
utensils — Also some fire works to be used in setting fire to the fences and houses
if it becomes necessary — Blue and red cloth — Shirts, — hats — pipes — combs —
mirrors — knives — bullet moulds — shotguns — leaf tobacco — honey — and some,
but very little whiskey,— to gratify the Indians, not only the friendly ones,
but those who may join us hereafter, besides paying them sepai-ately for the
work thay may have done —

"Commissaries should be appointed to attend and look after the ecconomy and
distribution of every article, with a separate account of each, and everything
to be under the care and command of a person who shall be competent and
experienced — The said Commissaries to be strong and robust, experienced by
land and sea and capable of enduring the fatigues of the ardous labors that
they will encounter — With power to act by themselves owing to the remoteness
of the resources —

" But, well understood that all the aforesaid is based upon the consideration of
the present situation —

THE LOWERY COLLECTIOX 273

"Under the aforesaid basis and preparations that are necessary, an idea can be
formed of the manner in vrhich the operations must be carried out — if by sea
or by land — or if both ways at the same time —

"Obser\-ins, however, that if done by land, it will always be necessary to have
a number of small boats, for the communication and crossing of the rivers and
creeks, as they appear marked on the plans — If on the contrary it should
become necessary to carry tlie operations both ways at the same time, the
limit of my knowledge does not authorize me to offer any suggestions, as I
cannot foresee the dispositions that may become necessary —
' ' In accordance with several points of my statement, I am of opinion that if it
were possible for the two Crowns to come to an understanding in order to deter-
mine their respective boundaries, disputing each one, its rights with proper
allgations, and in terms of a compromise — If such a thing were possible, or
it there was any chance of obtaining it in a favorable way, and quickly, I
should be of opinion that, that course be adopted as the most proper — easy
and less expensive, and more sure — Even admitting that we would be vic-
torious, and should succeed in driving the English from their possessions —
" It is also necessary to foresee the grave consequences — That is, the required
fortifications of the frontiers and necessary garrisons to preserve those pos-
sessions once acquired by us — And other pro\-inces which require serious
thought, and about which a separate report is necessary, which I shall be able
to formulate if it becomes necessary, by virtue of all my observations —
"This is all what I have the honor the communicate to you —

the King's Geographer. These plans had been collected by him in his duty of
engraving for the English Government. Some of the maps are the drawings made
for engraving, and are therefore simply manuscript duplicates of engraved maps
well known. But most of the collection consists of detailed plans, collected by
Faden, in the course of his long official experience, from different quarters. Few
of them have ever been made public in any form. They furnish, therefore, mast
valuable material for the illustration of American history. All the maps are manu-
script drawings, unless noted as engravings.

The only detail in which this impression differs from the one described in
title 303 is the cartouche over the title "To Ambrose Philips EsqF Register

servt G. Grierson."

The Gentleman's magazine for September, 1734, p. 512, mentions under pro-
motions, "Ambrose Philips, Esq., Register of the Prerogative Court at Dublin."
The life of Philips in the Dictionary of national biography, erroneously states
that in august 1733 he was made judge of the prerogative court. Therefore
this impression was made after 1734.

"Sir. In compliance with my duty I have the honor to inform Y. M., that the
English laid siege to this fort and city. I send to Y. M., herewith enclosed, a
plan of the said Fort, part of the city and of its en\irons, where the English
placed their batteries in position, commanded by General Don Diego Ogle-
thorpe. Also showing the places where they established their camps and other
points occupied by them during the time of the siege, which commenced on
the 13th of June of the present year, opening firemth their batteries and mortars
on the 24th of June which lasted until the 20th of July— Twenty-seven con-
secutive days of incessant fire. Notwithstanding which this Fort did not
receive much damage, although its parapets sustained some injury owing to
their being too weak and not sufficiently thick. Some of the old constructed
ones have been demolished, and the new ones ha^•e suffered very much owing
to their recent construction. But no time has been lost in endeavoring to
repair the damage to the best of our means and ability— and at present are
entirely repaired.

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 283

" I have also to infonn Y. M. that notwithstanding the enemy placing a battery
of hea\'y guns within a distance of 870 "toesas " from this Fort, yet, they caused
the aforesaid damage to the parapets, because of the stone of which they are
built being porous and soft. The balls did not penetrate into the walls of the
Fort more than a foot and a half, but the parapets as they were much lighter,
when a ball penetrated a foot and a half, they would tear up the stones aud
scatter them around.

" Consequently I decided to build that portion of the parapets which have to be
elevated, thicker, but in examining the walls I found out that where they
support the bastions they have not sufficient strength.

"In the event of building them of stone outside and terrace inside, we find the
inconvenience that it will occupy too much of the space of the bastions. So
that they will not be capable of sustaining much fire, as you will see by the
special plan of the Fort which I shall remit to Y. M. by the first opportunity,
in order that you may have full knowledge of the condition and strength of
this Fort.

" If next Spring, General Oglethorpe decides to besiege us again, as he has pub-
licly said, it is possible that he may plant his batteries on the main land and
nearer to the Fort, in order to utilize every shot from his guns; in which case
he -(Wll no doubt succeed in destroying the parapets and dismounting the guns.
As the parapet on the side of the covered entrance has not as yet been con-
nected with the terrace of the esplanade, (although at present it is being
extended) it will be very easily demolished at the begining of the Siege.
The line and land parapet which runs from the Fort to the San Sabastian Creek,
is of little defence, not only on account of the weakness of the parapet, narrow-
ness and little depth of the ditch that surrounds it, but also, because the bas-
tions owing to their small size are only capable of accomodating very few men,
and the curtains being very extensive and the force small for their proper
defence.

"It is probable they wUl not be very anxious to return, especially after the
warning and defeat they suffered lately. But if they do they will come better
provided with what they need for the surrender of this Fort and City. All of
which I have the honor to lay before Y. M., in order that you may issue the
necessary orders for the remission of men and money with which to put this
place in the best possible state of defence. So that the name of God and the
honor of Y. M. may be preserved in it, and that those of us who may have the
glory of sacrificing our lives in defence of our Lord, our faith and the service of
Y. M., may be able to preserve it, notwithstanding the pride of the heretics.

Note. — This is not the view originally published in the work mentioned above.
It is inserted and was originally published in the Gentleman's magazine for
July, 1740. The Library of Congress copy contains this inserted map. A
reproduction of the map originally published in this work is found in Winsor's
Narrative and critical history of America, v. 5, pp. 382-3SS, and is entitled "A
Plan of the Toron, Castle, and Harbour, of St Augustine, (and the adjacent Coast
of Florida) with the disposition of the Forces in the Expedition, under General
Oglethorpe, in the Year 1740."

In Sunny Lands, a Florida monthly magazine for Jan. 1900, in an article by
De Witt Webb, entitled "Gen. Oglethorpe's siege in 1740," is a description of a
map by gen. James Edward Oglethorpe in the possession of the St. Augustine
institute of science. The Library of Congress has two ms. maps which were
probably made for this expedition, entitled: "Plan of the Inlet Strait & Town
of Si Augustine. Sam. Roworth Bepi SurvT General. Scale of three quarters of
an English mile." Size 14J x 40 inches.

"A Plan of the Land Between Fort Mossy and Si Augustine in ihejmmnce of East
Florida. Sam Roimrth Dept. Sunt Geni Scale of three quarters of an English
mile." Size 15J x IGi inches.

The water mark in the paper of these maps consists of "I. Villeilary" and a

large fleur de ILs.

Consult also a map in Archer Butler Hulbert's The crown collection, v. 2, 7to. 5,

entitled by him: "A plan of the coast of East Florida from Fort William to

Anstatia Island: vith a bird's-eye view of the town of St. Augtistine, to shew the

attack and capture of the place by the English forces under General Oglethorpe in 1740;

unfinished. Size 2 ft. 4 in. x 1 ft. 8 in." The title actually appearing on the

map is nearly illegible, but is given in this list under title 369.

Another map in The crown collection which may be mentioned here is in

V. 1, no. 40, and entitled:

"Carte du cows du fleuve St. Louis, depuis dix lieues audessus de la NouvelU

Orleans, jusqii'a son embouchure, oil sont marquees les habitations formees et les

terrains concede:, aux quels on n'a pas travaille," drawn about 1740, on a scale

of l.OGG in. to a lei^ue (of 22,882 toises) Size, 2 ft. 3 in. x 10 J in.

In Charles Leslie's A new history of Jamaica, 2d ed. [anon.] 1740, is "A map or

chart of the West Indies . . ." containing an inset entitled "Harbour of San

Augustin on the coast of Florida." The same map with inset is found in A

geographical and historical description of the principal objects of the present war

in the West Indies . . . London, 1741.

[In Memoire de Trivoux. Oct.-nov. 1743. 16°. Paris, 1743. pp. 2521-2541,
2713-2737]. It shows that this map was published separately as above stated:
"La Louisiane & le cours du fleuve Micissipi, auroient m^rit6 un tout autre

j'ai donne quelques morceaux particuliers, que j'ai cru devoir faire plaisir au
public. Par example, on y trouvera une carte d'une partie de la cote de la
Louisiane & de la Floride, depuis la nouvelle Orleans jusqu'^ 5. Marc d'Apa-
lache, une petite carte des embouchures du Micissipi, un plan de la Nouvelle

levoix's Journal d'un voyage fait par ordre du roi dans I'Amtrique Septentrionale,
Paris, 1744, v. 3, p. i~xix.

An impression of this map is also found in Bellin's Le petit atlas maritime, 1764,
V. 1, no. 42, described in Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, title 63S.
For a life of Bellin consult Biographic universelle {Michaud) Paris, 1S54, v. 3,
pp. 582-583.

For a critical estimate of the value of Bellin's maps, consult William Francis
Ganong's A monograph of the cartography of the province of New Brunswick . . .
Ottawa, 1897.

The following is quoted from an answer to a letter to Henry N. Stevens request-
ing information as to this impression:

"It is an earlier impression of the same plate afterwards appearing in Charlevoix
with date 1744. If you look at Charlevoix you will see that the second 4 has
the appearance of having been altered on the plate. There are several indi-
cations that the 1742 is earlier, beyond the variation in date. The impression
is much finer. There is no indication of the figure 16 which appears in the
left margin of Charlevoix outside the border line. The Fort under Pensacola
named F. S. Charles in Charlevoix is not named at all. At the left end of
Isle de Sf Rose the letterings Pointe de Siguenca and "Brasses" against the
figure 30 do not appear nor the word "Brasses" against the figure 30 in the sea
below. The British Museum ha-s several other maps in thia series also dated
1742 which appear in Charlevoix as 1744 and bearing similar alterations more
or less; e. g. Rivifere de Richelieu 1742. Isle d'Orleana 1742. Bassin de
Quebec 1742. Rivfere du Saguenau 1742. All these bear evidence in Charle-
voix of the last figure in the date having been altered. I do not know that
these maps were actually issued as a series with dales 1742. More probably
the Charlevoix book, maps and plates took a long time to prepare and the work

THE LOWEKY COLLECTION 287

did not gel issued till 1744 when the maps were redated and brought up to
date by the additions which I have noted. The Museum 1742 maps are dis-
tributed in various places and are all old stock, so there is no evidence whether
they were acquired all together at oue time."

on each side of the lower map a descriptive legend extending from
A to Z and from 1 to 8. The maps are undated and are without
maker's name; but are evidently of the same period as the "Survey
of the Coast from Fort William ... to Mosquito River" of Justly
Watson, 1743, which immediately preceeds it. lc 369

got his information. The scale is the same.

"About the middle of the eighteenth century the Spanish crown, feeling the
need of a full and detailed account of the actual extent of its increasing domin-
ions in the new world, and the civil and the religious condition of their inhabi-
tants, issued a royal decree dated July 19, 1741, demanding from the alcaldes
mayores and justices a complete report on their respective districts. The
conipilation of these data in New Spain was confided by Viceroy Feunclara,
to the auditor-general of the department of quicksilver, Jos^ Antonio de Villa-
Sefior y Sanchez. Villa-Seiior, according to Alcedo, Bib, Am., MS., ii. 1158,
was a native in Valladolid in Michoacan, but Brasseur de Bourbourg, Bib.

no time in beginning his labors, and published in Mexico the first volume of
his work in 1746, and the second two years later, under the title of Thealro
Americano, Descripcion General dc los Reynos, y Provincias de la Nuera Espana.
After a brief and general account of the early history of America and the Aztecs,
with an outline of the physical geography of New Spain, the text proper follows,
in six parts, corresponding to the six dioceses, with the history of their towns,
parishes, and missions, classified by districts, together with some information
regarding their relative situations, actual population, condition, products, and
industries. Volume i., containing books i.-ii., with 382 numbered pages, is
devoted to the archbishopric of Mexico, and the see of Puebla, including a
full description of the city of Mexico, its public buildings, general and local
government departments, and revenues. The second volume is equally divided
between the remaining bishoprics. Though at the time of its publication this
work enjoyed a high reputation for accuracy, it was subsequently found to
contain many errors. Akedo, Bib. Am., MS., ii. 1159. Approaching, in its
nature, a geographical and historical dictionary, it was the first of its kind
relating to New Spain; and notwithstanding its defects, which later publica-
tions have ser\'ed to rectify, it is invaluable for the history of this period, and
has been freely used by subsequent writers. Villa-Seiior is said to have been
the author of several other works, likewise printed in Mexico, Brasseur de Bour-
bourg. Bib. Mex. Gnat., 155, but I have been unable to find any mention of
such works, excepting that given by Alcedo, Bih. Am., MS., ii. 1159-60, entitled
Bespueita d la Apologia, Mex. 1742, relating to the monopoly of quicksilver."
In Medina's mexican imprints, a list of Villa-Senor y Sanchez's works, previous
to this, is given. Consult also, H. H. Bancroft's Arizona and New Mexico,

Santo, in the Quarterly of the Texas state historical association, October, 3898, pp.
165-166:

"After Escandon was commissioned to carry on the conquest and settlement of
Nuevo Santander, he sent a captain with soldiers and settlers to take possession
of la Bahia del Espiritu Santo claiming it as within his territory, and held it
until ordered to remove his people to the south side of San Antonio river, then
declared the boundarj-. This order was obeyed by Captain Basterra's removing
the troops, settlers, missionarj- priests, converted Indians,, together with every-
thing movable, including the bell, door, and name of the place, and placing
the establishment on the south side of San Antonio river opposite the site
selected for the new town of Balmaceda at Santa Dorotea.
"The royal engineer, Don Augustin Lopez de la Camara Alta, made a map of
Xuevo Santander, including in the northeastern portion of it the ancient site
of the 'Presidio y Mision de la Bahia del Espiritu Santo,' showing it on the
right margin of the 'Rio de Guadelupe,' and placing the site of Santa Dorotea
of the left margin of the 'Rio de San Antonio,' also showing the Espiritu
Santo bay into which the two rivers emptied. It also contains a tracing of the
route of the troops in going to the presidio and mission on the Guadalupe. It
was filed in the archives at Mexico, in connection with the report of Don Jose
Tienda de Cuer\'0, royal inspector general, in 1757, and is still intact in
volume 29 of the historical branch of the general archives.
"In volume 55 of the same archives there is a report made by Escandon with a
tabulated statement of the towns, etc., he had established, containing these
words: 'Villa de Balmaceda en Santa Dorotea ... A este paraje se removio
el Presidio y Mision de la Bahia del Espiritu Santo.' (Town of Balmaceda at
Santa Dorotea. ... To this place the presidio and mission of la Bahia del
Espiritu Santa were removed)

" In one of his reports to the viceroy, Escandon recommended the reduction of
the salaries of the captains of some of the new towns, among them 'el presidio del
Espiritu Santo,' at which place he also proposed to establish a new town. And
he also shows that after founding the town of Reynosa, he sent orders to the
captain of the troops of Espiritu Santo, Juan Orobio y Basterra, to found the
projected town on the Nueces river with the families that had gone out from
Nuevo Leon.

" In an application for a grant of land, made by Captain Jose Vasquez Borrego
in 1750 in mentioning the settlements and their courses and distances from
the land he asked for, he mentions ' la Bahia del Espiritu Santo now removed

Escandon, Jose — Continued.

to Santa Dorot^a,' showing that he then knew of this removal. And a testi-
monio of this application is in the proceedings or expediente of the title among
the ancient Spanish archives of Laredo, Texas."

Also from an article by Zachary T. Fulmore, entitled The annexation of Texas
and the Mexican war, in the same journal for July, 1901 :

"When 3oe6 de Escandon, a military subaltern at Quer6taro, was commissioned
to subjugate, settle, and organize the Tamaulipas region, the extent of his
operations north confined him to a distance which took him to the Rio Grande.
When he reached that point he stopped, but permitted Basterra, one of his
captains, to go on to the Nueces. This officer went as far east as the Guadalupe
river to the old mission, La Bahia del Esplritu Santo. He dismantled this
mission and re-established it at Santa Dorotea (Goliad), on the San Antonio
river. Accompanying his official report was a map, entitled 'Colonia de
Nuevo Santander,' with that river as the eastern bounds of his province.
From this circumstance the San Antonio river was regarded as the boundary
notwithstanding the fact that San Antonio, further up the river, was and had
been the capital of Texas since 1715. This continued to be regarded as the
boundary until the Nueces was put down upon the maps as such, it is said,
about the year 1805."

Note. — John Hinton is the publisher of this magazine and therefore the map is
credited to him. An inset to this map is entitled ■Fort Frederick at Crown
Point built by the French 1731." The following explanation is in p. 145:
".\11 the coloured part of this map, with those small spots on which the French
have built forts, shews the right and possessions of Great Britain; and the
various colours distinguish the several provinces, as their respective Governors,
at present, exercise their jurisdictions. The uncoloured part of this map, to
the northward of the river St. Laiu-ence, contains all the territories, France has
any just right to, in North America. And the rest of the uncoloured part, to
the southward of South Carolina, is all that belongs to Spain, according to the
stipulations between Great Britain and that crown, in the year 1738. The Five
Nations, called Iroquois by the French, are acknowledged, by the Treaty of
Utrecht, to be friends and allies of Great Britain; and, consequently, all the
lands belonging to them can by no means belong to France. So that we have a
double claim, first, by right of prior discovery, and, secondly, as belonging to
our friends and allies, to those countries, which France so unju-stly pretends to
claim. The hereditary and conquered country of the Iroquois, or Fi\e united
Nations of the Indians residing in the province of New York, which has been
ceded and confirmed by them in many treaties, and a deed of sale, in 1701, and
by France, in the treaties of Utrecht and Aix la Chapelle, to the crown of Great
Britain, extends, to the eastward, from the south side of St. Laurence river to
the western bounds of New England, and, on the north side of that river, to the
Ilawas river and lake Abitibis: From lake Abftibis, south-west, to the north-
east end of the lake ilichigan; and from thence, through that lake, to the river
Illinois; and from thence, down that river, to the Mississippi. From the con-
fluence of the rivers Illinois and Mississippi, its western boundary is the course
of the Mississippi as far as Georgia. This is a vast country, extending about
twelve hundred miles in length, from north to south, and from seven to eight
hundred miles in breadth.

' ' The pricked line, which nms from Escondido, in the Gulph of Mexico, along the
AlUgany mountains, through New Hampshire, along Penobscot river, across
the Bay of Fundi, to Cape Canso, is what the French are pleased to prescribe,
as the boundary of our settlements; pretending, that all the country to the west-
ward and northward of it, to the bounds of Hudson's-bay, belongs to them."

Note. — Very little seems to be known of the life of Le Rouge. Joseph Marie
Qu6rard, in La France lilleraire, mentions that he was born in Hanover and gives
alistofsomeof hisworks. The map was evidently intended for reference in con-

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 315

A life of the author, John Mitchell, is found in Dictionary of national biography.
The original title reads as follows:

''A map of the British and JFrcnch dominions in North America, with the roads,
distances, limits, and utent of the settlements. Humbly inscribed to the right
honourable the earl of Halifax, and the other right honourable the lords commissioners
for trade & plantations. By their lordships most obliged and very humble servant

"This map was undertaken with the approbation and at the request of
the lords commissioners for trade and plantations; and is chiefly composed
from draughts, charts and actual sur\-eys of different parts of his majesties colo-
nies & plantations in America ; great part of which have been lately taken by
their lordships orders, and transmitted to this office, by the governors of the said
colonies and others. John Pownall, secretar>-. Plantation office, feb^ IS*

"La carte de la Califomie, du t. i est gravce par P. Pena; les trois du t. in sont

The map is taken from Anson's A voyage round the world, published in 1748.
A reproduction entitled, "A chart of the Pacific Ocean" is found in A. E.
Nordenskiold's Periplus, p. 191. Also in the Kohl collection, numbers 290 and
291. The following is a manuscript border description relating to the map
from number 290 of this collection:

"George Anson on his famous circumnavigation of the Globe captured as is
well known, the Spanish Manilla 'Galeon Nuestra Seiiora de Cabadonga' in the
Chinese Waters at the end of the year 1742. He found in her immense treas-
ures, and amongst her papers also a Spanish map of the Northern Pacific Ocean.
' ' The Original of this map appears unhappily to be lost to us. But after the short
description, which Anson gave of it, it soems to have comprised a picture of the
whole Northern Pacific as high as 3UJ° N. L. It was probably one of those

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 317

charts, as the Manilla Galeons usually had them in crossing, from Asia to
America. It may have been an old Spanish map. We can give to it no other
date but the year 1742, in which it was captured.

"In the work: 'Anson's Voyage Round the World. London, 1748,' a reduced
copy of it is communicated, on which the Longitudes appear to be taken West
from the Meridian of S. Bernardino in the Philippinas, two degrees West from
Cabo Spirito Sto. — On this map the Coasts of California are represented, as the
copy on the first of the annexed sheets shows it. We learn from it, that the
Spaniards then did know more of California than our other European Geog-
raphers. The figure of the Coasts and the names appearing on them seem to
indicate, that the map principally rested on the survey and exploration of Viz-
cayno (in 1602). 'Punta, de los Reyes' and 'Los Farallones' indicates our
S. Francisco-Bay, though in a somewhat too high Latitude. 'Punta de
Pinos'=our Monterey harbour. The Coast round 'Punta de la Concepcion'
(Point Conception) is very well indicated.

"The islands of the 'Sta Barbara ' Channel have only partly still the same names
to-day.

" 'Pto de S. Diego' has a somewhat too high Latitude.

"'Bay de S. Francisco,' in 30"^ N. L. must not be confounded with our 'S.
Francisco' Bay in Upper California. It is a more Southern bay, which was
also called so on Viscayno's voyage.

"The Southern extremity of California: 'Cabo S. Lucas' has its true Latitude:
22^'= N.

"This map captured by Anson at the time being seems to have excited a good
deal of interest amongst the geogra.phers. The first, who copied it, and embodied
it into his larger works, filling with it a great gape in the North-west-Coast of
America, was Jefferj's, then a most active chartographer in London. How he
did this shows the second annexed sheet, which is a copy of his chart of the
North Pacific. It was as Jeffrj-s says 'laid down chiefly from the Spanish
chart, used on board the Cabadonga, taken by Anson 1743 (ought to be 1742)
which is scarce reconcilable with other charts and journals either as to the
names or situation of Places.'

' ' We find on it also many groups of islands, which were probably depicted on the
Spanish map. For instance the Sandwich islands called: 'La Mesa,' 'Los
Monges' etc. They have their Latitude, but are placed much too far East.
" Jefferys has added to the map the routes of different navigators, and likewise
his and other geographers ideas about the 'River of the West.^ Jefferys himself
thinks that the old 'Opening discovered by D'Aguilar 1603,' is the true great
river of the West, and has it consequently in about the latitude of our present
Columbia-River. He has also a nameless broad inlet in the latitude of De
Fuca-strait.

"Farerto the Xnrth-west he writes: ' Fousang of the Chinese' because many
geographers of the time believed then, as Du Halde had made them believe,
that the 'countrj' of the East' (Fousang) of the Chinese was America, and not,
as it really is, Japan.

"The map of the 'Indian Ochagach,' of which Jefferys speaks we will commu-
nicate among our Canadian maps. (See our collection) "
From ^^'insor's description of this collection, p. 136, is this extract:
"A map of the North Pacific was found by Anson in 1742, on board a Spanish
ship captured by him on the China coast. It was engraved on a reduced scale
in Anson's Voyage Round the World, London, 1748. It was next embodied by
Jefferj's in his map of the North Pacific, and of this the present map is a copy.
Jefferys, however, made some additions to the original Spanish map. He says

of this prototype, that it is scarcely reconcilable with other charts and journals,
as to the names and situations of places. The English cartographer also
pricks out the tracks across the Pacific of Gaetan (1542), Mendana (1568),
Francisco de Gualle (1583), Cavendish, Spilbergen (1616), Fronolat (1709), and
of the track each way of the 'Nuestra Seiiora de Cabodonga' (1743), the ship
captured by Anson. Jefferys calls the northern parts of the coast the Chinese
'Fousang,' while Kohl believes that debatable region to have been Japan."

Note. — The following are the titles of the six charts here mentioned which are
described in Phillips' List of maps of America, p. 280:
Section 8. Chart of the sea coast from latitude 21° 00' 00" to 21° 20' 00".
Section 9. Chart of the sea coast frorn latitude 26° 40' 00" to 27° 00' 00".

Section 11. Chart of New inlet.
Section 12. Chart of Middle inlet.

Section 13. Chart of Cape Florida according to the surveys made may IS & 29, 1765.
Sections 1-7, not in the Library.

Be.f ides the above described sections, there are two separate charts in the collec-
tion entitled (1) "Special chart of Cape Florida belonging to the ISth section." —
"In mr. De Brahm's letter of July Sd, 1765" and (2) "Special chart of Mushito
inlet. Rec'd jan!/ 29th, 1767."

The dates found on these maps are from July 3, 1765 to Jan. 29th, 1767.
The statement "In mr. De Brahm's letter of July 3, 1765" is foimd on the face
of four of the sections. "In mr. De Brahm's letter of oct. 16, 1765" is found
on three. The various sections contain considerable descriptive text.
Little seems to be known of the life of De Brahm. I quote here however from
some manuscript notes:
[Apocalyptice gnomon]

"The author of this very curious and madly mysterical book, played an impor-
tant part in the early history of Georgia. In 1751, when he was 33 years old he
came over to the new world with 160 German colonists and eleven months after
160 more came, all being relations and acquaintances. He established the
flourishing settlement of Bethany in Georgia in 1752 and busied himself in
surveys and fortifications. In 1755 he fortified Charlestown, in 1756 built Fort
London, in 1757 fortified Savannah and in the year published the first map of
S. Carolina and Georgia. On the 26 June 1764 he was appointed Ilis Majesties
Surveyor General of the Southern District of North America which he held till
1772. In 1772hepuljli.';ht'(Uli( .\tlantic Pilot printed at London, and dedicated
to the Earl of Hillsboniui,'li , sc ■( n -t aiy of state for .\merica. When Brahm came to
Georgia in 1751, he s:iys I hen- were very few English except 3 dozen, and about
1500 Salzbiu-g emigrants. Brahm says his own Germans were a poor lot 'very few
well built attitudes and much less likely faces, spoke no English after many
years, schools and divine service both in German.' In 1798 'in my 81 of age'
as he says, he wrote to the high commissioners of the treasury, thanking them
for the past favours, but mentioning that he had been left unprovided for from
1783 to 1798 and gives notice that he has delivered up to Phineas Bond consul
general of Great Britain for the states of America four folio vols, of surveys.
The third is now in the library of Harvard college and in 1849 Mr. George
Wymberley-Jones printed 49 copies in fol. privately at Wormsloe. Mr. Wym-
berley-Jones does not seem to know anything of Brahms mystical writings or
of this book which must be very rare, not being in any of the great English
libraries."

The maps in his Atlantic pilot are given in titles 554-556 of this work.
Besides his map of South Carolina and a part of Georgia in the Library of Con-
gress published in 1757, and reproduced later in Jefferys' various atlases, the
Library has the two following works:

North America which the French claimed under the name of Louisiana. As to
the northern boundan,- between it and what they called Canada, we have left
it undescribed in the map, because in the treaty of peace, which was without

of the map and on pp. 553-556 reprints the whole descriptive and historic text

Note. — The following life of the author of this map is taken from: SynopHs of
the history of Louisiana, from the founding of the colony to the end of the year
1791. By the chevalier Guy Sotiiat du Fossat, officer in the f reach army, icho
came to New Orleans in 1751 and was the founder of the american branch of the
family of Soniat du Fossat. Translated from the frenrh . . . by Charles F.
Soniat, esq. 41 pp. [New Orleans, 1903]

"Le Chevalier Guy de Soniat du Fossat, founder of the American branch of the
family, was born in the aforenamed Chateau on the 17th of September, 1727.
He entered the French army as volunteer, in 1746; in 1747 was made Lieutenant
in the Regiment of Monaco; in 1748 he was wounded at the siege of Maestricht,
in Holland; and he continued his ser\dce in the French army in France until
1751, when he came to Louisiana as Lieutenant in the Detached Corps of
Marines, during the reign of Louis xv, at which time the Marquis de Vaudreuil
was Governor of Louisiana. He located at New Orleans and married, in 1753,
a daughter of Mathurin Dreux, a worthy ancestor of Charles Dreux, the first
Confederate officer killed in battle during the late war between the States.
" Le Chevalier du Fossat was appointed, in Louisiana, captain of a company in
17.59; was sent the same year to Illinois, being an engineer of ability, to con-
struct and repair several forts, among others, Fort Chartres and the Kaskakiaa
which protected for years the Western Colonists.

" He was recalled to New Orleans in 1761, where he continued in the service of
the King of France, until the 5th of March, 1766, when Ulloa, in the name of
the King of Spain, came to take possession of the province of Louisiana, which
had been donated by the King of France, to the King of Spain on the 3rd of
November, Seventeen Hundred and Sixty Two (1762)

" By virtue of a permission granted to him by the King of France, he entered in
the Ser\'ice of the King of Spain, in Louisiana, in 1767, and was made Captain
in the Batallion of Louisiana, in 1769, after O'Reilly had assumed control of
the Province.

" In 1772, whilst in the service of the colony, he was retired from active service.
In 1775 he was appointed Alcade by Governor Unzaga, on account of past serv-
ices rendered by him; in 1778 he bought from the LTrsulines Nuns a plantation
situated 2} leagues below the City of New Orleans, subsequently known as the
Villere Plantation, made memorable by the battle of New Orleans, and in 1786
he was again reappointed Alcade by Governor Miro, and in 1794 he died, and
was buried in New Orleans."

The map was probably made to accompany this work.

The Library of Congress has in its collection a manuscript map of much interest
giving soundings and points of interest, entitled " Carle de la cotte de la
province de la louisiane et des bouchrs du Micissipy ou fleuve St. Louis faite par

(Add. 17,648, A) The original has the following title: 'Piano geografico de la
major parte de la America Septentrional Espanola, formado scjbre las majores
noticias impresas, manuscriptas y verbales, que si han podido adquirir, princi-
palmente de Don Carlos de Siguenza y del ingeniero Balleyro Disposolo en 1767

350 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

Alzate y Ramirez, Jose Antonio de — Continued.

Don Joseph Antonio Alzate y Eamirez de la Real Academia de Paris, quien lo
reformo con el de 1772 concordandolo con las nuevas observaciones astrononii-
cas.' (A geographical map of the greater part of Spanish North America,
formed after the best notices, printed as well as manuscript and verbal, which
.could be procured, principally of Don Carlos de Sigiienza and of the engineer
Balleyro. Don Joseph Antonio Alzate y Ramirez of the Royal Academy of
Paris laid it out in the year 1767, who reformed it also after the map of 1772,
putting it in accordance with the astronomical obser\-ations)
"The original of the map seems to be made by Alzate's own hand. For we
find his name besides in the title still once more written upon it in his own
autograph.

"The map is interesting, because being made principally in the year 1767, it
depicts to us the state of knowledge, which the Spaniards had acquired of
Upper-California and the Colorado River, immediately before the commencement
of the modern explorations of those regions by the Franciscan Missionaries (since
1769) and by the great Spanish Northwest navigations (since 1774) The dark-
ness was really great, as our map shows, which was made by the Academician.
"So more we can appreciate the value of those new discoveries.
"We may indicate here as the principal points of interest on the map:
"The ' Rio Gila ' is the only part of the map, which is pretty well laid down.
"The discoveries and travels of theGerman Jesuits father Kiihn(Kinei in 1699
and 1700, and father Sedelmayer 1744 are mentioned there as the latest explora-
tions.

" The ' Rio Colorado ' is represented as known not much higher up, than to that
point, to which arrived already in the year 1540 Capt Alarchon.
"The 'Casas grandes', the Indian 'Apaches', Zuni, 'Acoma' and other well
known places towards New Mexico are mentioned.

" A ' Rio Amarillo ' (yellow river) appears to the North of the Colorado, as being
mentioned by father Kine.

" Farer to the North the table mountains of Nabajo (Mesas de Nabajo) and the
'Blue ridge' (Sierra Azul) are indicated, the latter as 'much talked about'
(tandecantado).

"And stOl farer to the North the 'Laguna de Teguallo ' (our great Salt Lake)
from which ' the Mexican Indians are said to have set out.'
On the Seacoast is marked: 'the Nee plus ultra of father Link in 1766', — the
'Mountains of S'" Lucia', which the Galeons of 'Manila use as a landmark on
their home-voyage to Acapulco.'

" Farer to the North the 'Sierras Nevadas' and then the famous but fabulous
'Rio Tison', which is said to have been seen by Juan de Onate, the founder of
New Mexico, and which has been laid down on so many maps.
" In 42° N. L. is depicted 'the great bay of the West' (Mar o Bahia del Vest)
which is said to have been discovered by 'Juan de Fucar' (ought to be Fuca).
"The interior of Upper California is declared to be unknown."

Note. — H. H. Bancroft, in his History of Arizona and New Mexico, statas, in

inspector of frontier presidios"; and in a foot-note, same page:
"Lafora [Nicolds) Viage del ingeniero d Sta. Fe, 1766. MS. in Pinart col. L.
accompanied Rubi and kept the diary, which contains little or nothing of
interest except statistics utilized later. L. also made a map, which, so far aa I
know, is not extant."

Consult also his History of Mexico, v. 3, p. 411-2.

1905, an article by Herbert E. Bolton, entitled, The Spanish abandonment arid
re-occupation of East Texas, 1773-1779, p. 74-79.
The following is quoted from the foot-note on p.' 74:

"The diary kept by la Fora was entitled Viage del ingeniero a Sta F6 (1766,
MS., in what Bancroft calls the Pinart Collection. See Bancroft, Arizona and
New Mexico, 258, note) I have not had access to this diary. A copy of the
map, if not the original, was once in volume v of Secci6n de Historia, Archivo
General. I tind a statement to this effect in some notes made by Father Tala-
mantes, and the evidence of its having been torn out is still \'isible in the
volume.

"Bancroft knew of the existence of this map, but was unable to find it (see his
Arizona and New Mexico, 258, note) I fortunately found a photograph of it
in the possession of the noted scholar, Mrs. Zelia Nuttall, of Coj-uacdn, Mexico,
who generously allowed me to copy it. The tradition is, I believe, that the
map was taken from its place by some one connected with Maximilian's govern-
ment. A copy of the part of the Dictamen bearing on Texas is contained in
'Quaderno que Corresponde' , vol. 51, Seccion de Historia, Archivo General
(see bibliographical note, page 67) This is the only part of it I have seen or
have been able to locate."

XoTE.— The Librarj- of Congress has two editions of Speer's West India pilot of

1766 and 1771, described in Phillips' List of Geographical Atlases, titles 2696 and

2698. Neither of these copies contains the map above described.

The British Museum Catalogue of printed -maps, column 1980, mentions a " Chart

of the West I ... By ... J. S. Speer. 11 sh. London, 1771."

The Library- of Congress has his map entitled in the cartouche " To his royal

highness. George Augustus Frederick. Prince of Wales, &c. &c. d-c. This Chart

of the West Indies, is humbly inscribed by his royal highness' s faithful and obedient

tervant Joseph Smith Speer."

In the center, border, " Pubhsh'd according to Act of Parliament May 20"' 1774.

By Capt. Speer Bridge Street Westminster"; further on in the border "Tho*.

Bowen sculp', Fleet street 1774." It gives soundings along the Florida coast.

A reproduction of this map with the same dedication and entitled in the top

right hand comer: "A general chart of the West Indies by captain J. S. Speer with

additions from the latest navigators. London republished June 4tt', 1796 by Robert

Wilkinson no. 58 Comhill", is also in the Library. In the explanation under

this title the United States is added.

The Gentleman's magazine for february, 1781, p. 94, in the death notices,

states:

"At Cadiz, Capt. Joseph Smith Speer, author of 'The West India Pilot,' and

many other nautical works. He was taken by the Spaniards in 1780, with the

raiment he had raised for service in the West Indies."

364 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

Speer, Caft. Joseph Smith — Continued.

In answer to a letter addressed to Henry N. Stevens, requesting information
with regard to the map in the British Museum, the following was received:
"Your reference to British Museum catalogue Cd 19S0 S157(G) is an old entry
which has now been altered to 7d6 in a later issue of catalogue. These two
entries refer to actually the same copy of the map. Lowery is evidently wrong
when he states that the map 7d5 is in Speer's atlas, The West India Pilot 1771.
The map is as large or larger than the whole Pilot book and certainly does not
go in it.

"There are two distinct issues of the chart, viz., 1771 and 1773. The first is in 8
sheets and the second in 11. The British Museum revised entry is quite wrong.
They describe the 1773 issue as 11 sheets and give it the date 1771 which appears
in the main imprint, ignoring the date 1773 which appears in the right lower
comer. They then describe the 8 sheet issue as 'another edition of the 8
western sheets' S. Hooper [London 1777] The map was originally issued in
1771 in 8 sheets and with the imprint all in one line: 'Publish'd as the Act
directs Aug 31. 1771 and sold by S Hooper No 25 Ludgateh.'
"The title reads in 8 lines as follows:

' To his most excellent Majesty
George the III'' King of Great Britain
France and Ireland Defender of the Faith &c &c
This Chart of Part of the West Indies
is humbly inscribed by his Majesty's
most faithful Subject and Ser\'ant
Joseph Smith Speer
Capt in his Majesty's 49"'. Reg', of Foot'
This is in an elaborate cartouch surmounted by the Royal Arms, with engraver's
imprint immediately below, 'I Bayly Sculp'. Londini 1771'. The pub-
lisher's imprint as given above is almost IJ inches below the cartouch.
" Then in 1773 the map was reissued in 11 sheets. The fourth line of the title
was altered to read,

' This Chart of the West Indies '

the words ' Part of ' being omitted and the whole line being re-engraved . Three
western sheets were then added and the following imprint appears in the
extreme lower right hand corner of sheet 11: ' Tho' Bowen, Sculpt Clerkenwell
1773.' The main imprint under the title was also altered to ' Publish'd as the
Act directs Aug 31. 1771 and sold in Bridge street Westminster ', all in one line.
Considerable alterations have been made especially in sheets 4 and 8. The
British Museum copy of the 1773 edition has a MS. slip certificate stuck on
signed John Townall and dated Plantation Office and containing the same
wording as engraved on Speer's 2 sheet chart of 1774. In the extreme left hand
corner of the map are 3 columns of descriptive text in an ornamental frame,
the left hand column bearing heading, ' Bay of Honduras '. The frame is of
irregular shape and the title cartouch is immediately to the right."

Note. — "Juan Crespf — there is a shadow of doubt whether it should be so
written and pronounced, or without the accent — was born in 1721 on the island
of Mallorca, where he was also educated, being a school-mate of Francisco Palou.
He was distinguished from the first for humility and piety, if such expressions
from a priestly biographer and eulogist mean anything, and was sometimes
called by fellow-students EI Beato or El Mi'stico. He came to San Fernando
de Mexico in 1749 and was sent two years later to the Fame missions of the
Sierra Gorda, where he served over sixteen years, particularly distinguishing
himself by the erection of a large stone church in the Valle del Tilaco, the
mural decorations of which he paid out of his own scanty salary. He arrived
in Baja California in April 1768, and served on the peninsula at La Purisima.
He accompanied the first land expedition which reached San Diego in May
1769, and a little later was one of the party that searched for Monterey and dis-
covered San Francisco Bay.

"His diaries of both these trips are extant and have been utilized in my narra-
tive. Returning from San Diego to Monterey in 1770 he assisted in founding
the mission of San Cdrlos in June, and served there as minister imtil March 1772.
Then he went with Lieutenant Fages to the San Joaquin River, of which explo-
ration his diary is the only record. He was now sent south to serve with Jaume
at San Diego from May to September, and returning resumed his duties at San
Carlos, where with the exception of two short periods of absence, he toiled until
his death. From June to August 1774 he served as chaplain on board the
Santiago in northern waters, writing a diary of the voyage; and in the autumn
of 1781 he accompanied Serra to San Francisco and Santa Clara. On his return
from this last journey he was attacked by a fatal illness. It was from his old
friend, companion, and superior Father Junipero, that Crespf received the last
consolaton,' rites of his religion, and his body was interred in the mission church
within the presbviiery on the gospel side, with the assistance of commandant
and garrison, and amid tears from his flock of neophytes, who lost a true friend
in Padre Juan." Consult H. H. Bancroft, Cah/ornia. v. r, p. 386, note.

As to the engraving of these maps, consult the following advertisements:
"Mr. Bernard Romans begs leave to inform the public, that his maps are now
ready for publication, the copper-plated being all done, and the paper which he
was obliged to get manufactured on purpose, is likewise finished, but not yet

immediately send orders where they are to be delivered, and as it is very neces-
sary he should after so great a drain of money, at last receive the return of his
labour, he hopes no demur will be made in payments. He returns thanks to
his subscribers, whose favours have much exceeded his hopes, they are so numer-
ous, for the whole work, that the book cannot be spared separately. A few
complete copies are left to non-subscribers, at 16 Dollars each." Rivington's
New York gazetteer, 1775. no. 107.

The former ownership of this map is referred to in this extract from a "Report
of Buckingham Smith, June 1, 1848," in Senate document, -Wth congress, 1st
session, rep. com. no. 24-', august 12, 1848. "To accompany bill s. no. 338,"
relating to "the Ever Glades"

"During the twenty-one years that Florida was a British province, from 1763 to
1784, surv'eys of the eastern coast were made by William Gerard De Brahm, esq.,
an engineer officer of reputation in the service of that government, and who was
its 'surveyor general for the southern district of North America'. The official
reports of these surveys, and others of Georgia and Carolina, have never been
fully published, and, indeed, it has not been generally known in this country
how far they had been perfected. De Brahm's observations alluded to, in the
book printed in 1775, on the Floridas, by Bernard Romans, induced inquiries
for information to aid me, and as to documents in the British colonial archives,
but no complete official records were found. Some of the maps of his surveys,
in manuscript, with notes of great interest and value, have been obtained
recently by Peter Force, esq., of this city, who has permitted copies to be taken
of those relating to the lower end of the peninsula, for my use. He has also in
his unequalled librarj' of American historj-, the very rare copper-plate chart of
Romans, published to accompany the work before mentioned. Further inves-
tigation resulted in ascertaining that materials in the handwriting of De Brahm,
chiefly 'historio-graphical and hydrographical,' from which his reports were
made, were in the posession of individuals in England; and within a few weeks
past, they have been purchased by Harvard University, and now belong to the
institution. The Hon. Mr. Westcott, of the Senate, sought to obtain the manu-
scripts for a short time from the University, for the use of the Library of Con-
gress, and for reference by me; and a request being made by the Treasury
Department, the corporation of the University, with great liberality, permitted
them to be brought to Washington. They can be copied for the use of the
government, under the stipulation that they shall notr be published without the
permission of the University.

"It will be found they contain useful information relating to South Carolina,
Georgia, and the Floridas, at the period they were written; and it is believed
a map made by him, upon an official surv'ey, of the sources of the Saint Mary's
river, (which he refers to in his work.) if it can be procured, will conclusively
settle the disputed question between the United States and the State of Florida,
on the one side, and the State of Georgia on the other, as to the eastern terminus
of the boundary line between these States."

shown on the map, and I here describe."

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 373

A reproduction of the map is given in the same volume, opp. p. 64, and in the
introduction occurs the following life of Ayala authorized by the minister of
marine of Spain under date of July 14, 1909:

"Ayala was bom in Osuna, Andalucia, on the 28th of december, 1745. He
entered the marine corps on the 19th of September, 1760, and was made alf^rez
de fragata, October 10, 1767; alf^rez de navio, June 15, 1769; teniente de
fragata, april 28, 1774; teniente de navio, february, 1776; and capitan de
frasata, december 21, 1782.

' ' ^^^len the order for the exploration of the northern coast was made, Ayala was
one of the officers assigned to the work. He arrived in Vera Cruz in august,
1774, proceeded to the City of Mexico, and was ordered by Viceroy Bucareli
to San Bias, where he was given command of the schooner Sonora. The
squadron under Heceta had hardly got under way, when the cornmander of
the San Carlos, Don Miguel Manrique, suddenly went mad. Ayala was ordered
to the command of the packet-boat, and returned to San Bias with the unfor-
tunate officer, to follow the squadron a few days later.

"In december, 1775, Ayala conducted a reconnaisance on the coast of New
Spain, and at its conclusion was placed in command of the Santiago, and
until October, 1778, served the new establishments of California. In august,
1779, he was sent to the Philippine Islands in command of the San Carlos,
returning to San Bias in 1781. In July, 1784, he returned to Spain, and on
march 14, 1785, was retired, at his own request, the royal order granting him
full pay as captain of frigate in consideration of his services to CaUfomia. He
died december 30. 1797."

In Daines Barrington's Miscellanies, London, 1781, p. 469-534 (map) is the

following: Journal of a voyage in 1775. To crplore the coast of America, norlh-

xoard of California, by the second pilot of the fleet, don Francisco Antonio Maurelle,

t?i the king's schooner, called the Sonora, and commanded by don Juan Francisco

de la Bodega.

In connection with the charts to accompany this report, Barrington says-

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 375

"I am sorry that I have not an opportunity of engraving with this journal the
nine charta which should accompany it; but as the latitudes and longitudes of
the new discoveries on the coast of America are so accurately stated, I should
hope that the publication will at least conv-ince the Spaniards how little it will
answer the purpose of mystery to withhold them. "

An extract from this joiu^ial is found in U. S. House of representatives, report
no. 101, 25th congress, 3d session, Jan. 4, 1839, appendix E, pp. 42-47.
Robert Greenhow in The history of Oregon and California, 1845, has considerable
information relating to these voyages, and in a note, p. 117, states:
" Of this expedition no less than five separate accounts are found among the manu-
scripts obtained from JIadrid, \\z.: the official narrative of the whole, drawn up
for the viceroy of Mexico — the Journal of Bodega — part of the Journal of Heceta,
showing his course after his parting with Bodega — a concise narrative by Bodega —
and, lastly, the Journal of Maurelle, the pilot of the Sonora. A copy of Mau-
relle's Joiu-nal was obtained in Madrid, soon after the conclusion of the voyage,
from which an English translation was published at London, in 1781, by the
Hon. Daines Barrington, among his Miscellanies. This translation, though very
iDaccurate and incomplete, attracted much attention at the time of its appear-
ance, and from it, and the short account given in the introduction to the JoiU'nal
of Galiano and Valdes, all the information respecting the voyage has been
hitherto obtained. Barrington's Miscellanies is, however, a rare book; and the
notices of this expedition contained in the various memoirs, reports, corre-
spondence, &c., relative to the northwest coast, are, for the most part, taken
directly, or at second hand, from the abstracts of the Journal, given by Fleurien
in his instructions to La Perouse, and his introduction to the Journal of
Marchand, which are both filled with errors."

MS., 52. Completed at Ures, Sonera, June 23d. This translarion was made
from the original in the parochial archives of Guadalajara, or, more probably,
from a copy of the same, apparently about 1850, under circumstances of which
I know nothing, but evidently with considerable care. The original, which I
have not seen, is cited in Prov. St. Pap., MS., xiii. 206, among other docu-
ments as Diaro que firma el P. Font . . . con dos mapas. A copy of the trans-
lation was obtained in California by Bartlett, and is cited in that author's

in my possession, is preser\'ed in the library of the Territorial Pioneers in San
Francisco, and an abridgment was published by that society. Territorial
Pioneers oJ Cal., First Annual, 81-107. The maps are not copied in the trans-
lation, though there are a few rude pen drawings, and though the number on
one of the maps, representing days' joumej^s, are given in the diarj'. For-
tunately this map, a very interesting and important one, has been found, and
a lithographic copy of it — though with many blunders in lettering — published
in Einton's Eand-Bool: oJ Arizona, of which book, recently printed, it is the
sole meritorious feature so far as history is concerned. I reproduce the map,
or that part of it representing California, in this chapter. Font's diarj", though
less complete and extensive than that of .\nza is still of very great value as an
authority on this expedition. Still another original authority is Garces, Diario

Elliott Coues in his On the trail of a Spanish pioneer, v. 1, has much to say of
Font with extracts from his diary; and from p. 58 ia quoted the following:
"Font accompanied Anza's expedition throughout, proved a troublesome
fellow and a model journalist, whose narrative of the affair is extant, and has
been repeatedly drawn upon by historians of California and others, often
incorrectly or perver-sely. His original MS., in his o\xn handwriting, is now
in my hands, making a small quarto of pp. 336, finished at Tubutama, May 11,
1777, with Font's signature. The precious volume belongs to the John Carter
Brown Library of Providence, R. I. By generous permission of Mr. John
Nicholas Brown and Mr. George Parker Winship, I am authorized to use it at
my discretion. It serves to check, corroborate, and amplify some portions
of Garc^s' own narrative; and I hope to publish it in full as the next one of
the American Explorer Series."
A reproduction of the map is also given.

A contemporaneous copy of this Diario is in the manuscript collection of the
Library of Congress.

Victoriano Salado Alvarez, in his Breve noticia de algunos manitscrilos de iiiteres
histdrico para Mexico en los archivos y bibliotecas de Washington, D. C, gives a
full title of Font's diario with the following note:

"Manuscrito de veintiuna fojas en cuarto menor, escrito de mano del Padre
Beaumont. AcompAnanlo una ' Planta hichonographica de la Casa Grande del
Rio Gila' y un 'Plan de la Boca del Puerto de S"? Francisco. En 37° 49'—.'

Justin Winsor, in his The Kohl Collection, title 296, in reference to Font's
map of 1777 states:

"Supposed, in the pricked track upon the drawing, to represent the journey
of Don Jos6 Moraza, about the bay of San Francisco, and to record his sur-
veys. Kohl supposes the imperfect delineation of the Monterey waters to
follow earlier surveys." Consult titles 587 and 588.

Note. — A reproduction of this map is found in the Kohl Collection, in the Libiury
of Congress, no. 296.

A border manuscript description is here quoted :

" This is a copy of a most interesting Calitomian map, of which I found a copy
in the British Museum.

" On the original as a kind of title was written the following: 'Piano mapa del
viage hecho del de Monterey al gran Puerto S. Francisco.' (A plain map of the
travel made from Monterey to the great harbor of S. Francisco.) And at the
bottom of the map is written the following: 'P. F. Font fecit Tubutama (or
Tubutana?) anno 1777.' (P. F. Font made it in Tubutama in the year 1777)
A route of a traveller is laid down on the map, which starts from Monterey and
goes round the Bay of S. Francisco. This route is perfectly in accordance with
the description of the journey made in the year 1776 under the commiand of
Capt. Don Joseph Moraga; who marched out in the beginning of June 1776
towards the great bay to siu-vey and map the whole country, and prepare a site
for a mission to be founded. And there can be not the slightest doubt, that his
journey is meant here, and that the results of his survey and explorations are given
here.

" The bay of S. Francisco, and abo S5 Pablo Bay, and even the mouth of the river
Sacramento are laid down on our map with a high degree of accurateness; The
land expedition of Don Joseph Morasja was combined with a contemporaneous
sea-expedition imder Don Fernando de Quiros. The whole bay was explored at
this occasion in a boat-voyage, and at the same time a part of the travellers were
ordered, to travel round the whole bay on land. The rest of the coasts on our
map and the imperfect sketch of Monterey Harbor were probably taken from
former siurveys by Bodega or Perez, who had sailed along this coast repeatedly
since 1774.

" We see on our map different names, which were given at the expedition of 1776,
and which do not exist more: 'Rio de las Llagas', 'Punta dulcc', 'Valle de
S. Fulgina' etc.

" We see also for the first time the ' Tulares' appear on our map, and behind them
the 'Sierras Nevadas'. The Latitudes and the distances on the map do honor
to those first Spanish observers. Longitudes are not indicated."

"The author had been educated in Paris as a physician, and afterward became
tired of the world and joined the Franciscan order. Having come to Mexico
he was assigned to Michoacan, where he served: l)ut his uncertain health not
allowing of his devoting himself to the more active duties of a missionary, he

THE LDWERY COLLECTION 389

undertook the work of recording the chronicles of his province. He had intended
to bring them down to 1640, and had prepared a vast plan, that he was not per-
mitted to accomplish, sickness and death putting an end to his labors when he
had rcc-orded events only to 15G5-<3, though in some parts of his narrative are
mentioned those of a latter date. The work was probably written in the latter
part of the 18th centurj- — tlie last dates spoken of therein being of 1777 — and
breaks off with only a few pages in the third book. He was not satisfied with
merely filling the pious duty (of itself a laborious one) of chronicling the mis-
sionary life and ser\'ices of the Franciscan and other religious orders, as well as
of the church in general, within the region comprised in the Franciscan cus-
todia ' (as first constituted), and ' provincia ' (as it became in 1566). of Michoacan
and Jalisco, but taking up history from the earliest time of the western conti-
nent, gave an introduction, called by hira Aparato, containing a narrative of
events from the discovery of America to the capture of the Aztec capital by
Cortes.

"For the purpose of his work he gathered, as he tells us, a large quantity of mss.
and authentic documents, from which and from pertinent printed material
(some 30 standard writers, with whom he at times disagrees) he drew his infor-
mation, forming a collection of historical facts relating to the interior provinces
as far as New Mexico, and even to general history. Of many of the documents
he gives full copies. The last part gives general remarks on Michoacan, phys-
ically and politically considered, from 1525 to 1566, and quite full information
on agriculture, food of the natives, etc. The style of the work, like that of most
writings of churchmen of that period, is too prolix, and confused at times; the
writer's judgement is often open to doubt, and his Spanish somewhat defective,
which Beaumont himself attributes to his education in Paris; but such draw-
backs must be fiverlooked, and the importance of the material chiefly con-
sidered. The Indian paintings at the end of the MS. copy give incidents of
the first visits of the Spaniards to Michoacan, their reception by the Jarascans,
labors of the Franciscan priests, establishment of the episcopal see, litigation
anent of the capital of the province, and the last sheet gives colored drawings
of coats-of-arms of the principal cities of Michoacan. My manuscript copy
was taken from the Mexican archives.

"Of the Aparato above alluded to, Bustamante (C. M.) published an edition,
Eistoria dtl Dexcubrimimto de la America Septentrional por Cristobal Colon,
escrita por R. P. Ft. Manuel de la Vega, of the Franciscan province of the Santo
Evangelio de Mexico, Mex., 1826, 4to, an incomplete, untrue, and useless
edition. Vega, placed as the author, was but the owner of the Ms. which
served Bustamante as original. Beristain does not know of the Cronica, but
refers to the author as a doctor and a man of the world before he took the habit."

In the Kohl Collection in the Library of Congress are reproductions of two
manuscript maps from the originals in the British Miiseum, titled "New
Mexico, 1782, " and " Upper California, 1782."

The latter map has the route of Garc& in 1775 and that of Anza in the same year;
and has a border manuscript account by Kohl as follows:
"This is a copy of a Spanish manuscript map, preserved in the British Museum.
"It has the following title: ' Mapa geografico de una gran parte de la America
Septentrional. Arispe 29 de julio de 1782. Man. Agust. Mascaro.' (Geograph-
ical map of a great part of Northern America. Arispe on the 29th of July 1782.

tion under Quiros and Moraga of 1776 (see our collection) is in a reduced sketch

correctly embodied into this map, seems to prove, that Mascaro tried to give us
something true.

" He seems to have had the intention to lay down on his map all the Spanish land-
expeditions from the South to the Northern parts of California executed in the
years 1775-76, and principally that of Don Juan Baptiste de Ansa.
"Junipero Serra and his Franciscan Missionaries, who were then forming their
missions in Upper California, had set out from the Peninsula of California, from
the old Jesuitical missions there. They had in the beginning communicated
with Mexico only by way of the Peninsula or by way of the ocean. They
wished to have discovered a more direct route by land. Capt. Don Juan Baptista
de Ansa was charged with this discovery. He made his first expedition in the
year 1774. He set out with soldiers, cattle, mules, and provisions from Sonora to
the Rio Colorado, crossed this river, and went through the interior of the country
to the Pacific Coast and along it to Monterey, where he arrived April 1774. He
returned the same way to Mexico, and made in 1775 his second expedition from
Sonora to California where he arrived in the beginning of the year of 1776.
" Ansa opened in this way the new direct land road of communication between Cali-
fornia and Mexico through Sonora. We see this route for the first time depicted
on our map. After Ansa it was repeatedly travelled.

"Our map has also the route or at least the Western part of the route of another
famous traveller, the father Garces, who on his great and celebrated excursion
to the Northwestern parts of Mexico, turned also so far West, that he came in
sight of the Pacific Coast. We see indicated on our map, which is made by a
countryman and contemporary of Garces, the 'Rio de San Felipe,' which
Garces discovered (perhaps oiu- S. Joaquin?) his 'Riodes Piramides ' (perhaps
our Rio Virgen?) , and a piece of a great nameless lake in the North, a little North
of the parallel of S. Francisco (perhaps our Salt Lake?)
"All the indications on Mascaro's map are not without interest."

In the London magazine for July, 1780, there is a map entitled, "A Chart of
the Discoveries made by the late Capt. Cook, and other European Navigators,
in the great Pacific Ocean between Asia and America. By T. Kitchin, Sent"
In the number for december, 1780, title page states that there is "a chart of
the discoveries made by the late Captain Cook, &c., corrected from that given
in the London magazine for July last." This map is not in the Library of Con-
gress copy. As in the Gentleman's Magazine for that date there is no map or
reference to the map above described and as the map in the London Magazine
answers to the description, it is presumable that the mistake was made in
reference to the map being in the Gentleman's Magazine.

' 'John Cary as a Cartographer. — A paper recently read by Sir H. G. Fordham
at a meeting of the Cambridge Antiquarian Society takes stock of the publica-
tions of John Cary, whose method of delineation, characterized by a delicacy
and clearness all its own, has, it is claimed, dominated British cartography from
the end of the eighteenth century to the present time. There exists in the
British Museum a canal plan, signed by Cary, dated 1769, and in the volume
containing this plan are others bearing his signature. G. and J. Cary's publica-
tions range from 1769 to 1836. 'G. Cary' appears on the publication issued
under the name of Cary between 1824 and 1836. There is no clue to the rela-
tionship between John and Francis Cary, the later of whom engraved a large num-
ber of the plates in Gough's Edition of Camden's 'Britannia' (1789 and 1805.)
Of the smallest of the three sets of maps of the English and Welsh Counties
published by Cary — the 'Traveller's Companion' — editions date from 1790 to
1824. The second set in order of size, 'New and Correct English Atlas, ' appeared
in 1787, and was republished in various editions down to 1821. Thirdly, in
1809 appeared the ' New English Atlas, ' the maps of which were used in 1819,
1820, and 1821, for setting out the geological discoveries of William Smith. The
plates of these three seta still exist, and the county maps of the Folio Atlas,
more than a century old, are still published for the use of motorists. In his
maps of England and Wales of 1794, Cary was the first to substitute the merid-
ian of Greemvich for that of St. Paul's. Lea^'ing out of account individual
maps incorporated into atlases, there are some 50 titles of works by Cary, and of
indi\'idual maps and plans about 300."

Shows southern end of Florida peninsula on a large scale. 664

Note. — An obituary notice, p. 112, in Centura literaria, v. 7, 1809, is as fol-
lows: "Oct. 30, 1807. At Chingford Lodge, Epping Forest, Mr. John Hamilton
Moore, author of Moore's Navigation, Seaman's Daily Assistant, the Monitor,
&c. He was in his 69th year."

A portrait of the author is found in his The new practical navigator, 14th erf.,
ISOO; and p. vm he states: "The rapid Sale my former publications have
had, has induced persons in Scotland, Ireland, and other places, to copy
them, many of which have been distributed to different parts of the world,
particularly in the East Indies and America; — in order to prevent such spurious
and erroneous Editions being imposed on the Public in future, a striking
Likeness of the Author will be prefixed to each Book of this New Work."
In the Sunday gazette, of the 8th of march, 1789, there is an account of an action
against Moore by David Steele whom he accused of plagiarism in connection
with the publishing of a chart entitled "A chart of the east coast of England."

A reproduction is found in the Kohl Collection, no. 301, with the following

" This is a copy of a map, which has the title: ' California antigua y nueva (Old
and New California)' The map is signed: 'Diego Francisco \sic^ Sc. Mexico.
1787.' (Diego Francisco engraved it in Mexico 1787)

" The map has further the following inscription: ' En este Carta no se escriben loa
nombres de todas las Yslas, Puertos, Rios y demas, por le hecho para solo demo-
strar lo, que andubo, y Missiones, que fundo en la Nueva California el V. P. Fr.
Junipero Serra, Presdte de ellas.'

" (In this map are not laid down the names of all the islands, harbors, rivers and
other objects, because it was erclusiveli/ made for the purpose of showing all the
space, over which travelled, and all the missions, which founded in Nevj California
the Venerable Father Junipero Serra, the President of these Missions)
"How and from what sources the map was constructed, we do not learn. It has
indicated the Latitudes and Longitudes, the latter 'from S. Bias' as usually on
the old Spanish maps of California. Both are very correct, and so is the whole
configuration given to the coasts and to the Gulf.

" It is the eldest map, of which I know, on which the boundary-line betvjeen New
and Old California is laid down. The new missions founded by the celebrated
Franciscan Father Junipero Serra, begin to the North of this boundary-line.
'Villicata' in old California is mentioned, from which place Serra set out to
the North. The route or road, which unites all the missions of Old and New
California is probably meant to designate the extent of the travels of that dis-
tinguished Missionary. ThLs simple line is, however, far from gi\'ing an idea
of all his numerous travels and excursions."

Mapa del territorio— Continued.

"The third class of documents, comprising numbers 13-19, consist of a number
of diaries recording journeys made to survey the roads and to ascertain the
distances from Santa Fe, San Antonio de B('>jar and other points to the east,
in 1787-1788. There are copies of the instructions, diaries, and derroteros of
Santiago Fernandez, Jose Marces C'abo Ymbalido. Francisco Xavier Fragoso,
and Pedro Vial, all copied from official papers in Chihuahua in 1793-4 by
Manuel Merino. If any of these have been printed, I do not know it."
In the same quarterly for July, 1906, in an article by Isaac Joslin Cox, Vial's
explorations are mentioned, p. 36; and Morfi, Viaje de Indios y Diana del
Nuevo Mexico, in Docunientos par la historia de Mexico, Second Series, vol. 1.,
is quoted.

The Library of Congress in its manuscript coUection has the following letters
regarding the various expeditions of Vial in this territory, as well as others
concerning his further explorations:

"January 23, 1788. Ugarte y Loyola, Jacobo [Comandante general, Prov. Int.
del Poniento, 1789-90]. To [Governor] Fernando de la Concha, [Santa F^].
Acknowledging receipt of Pedro Vial's Diario of his reconnaissance to discover
a direct route from Texas to Santa Fe and his memorial proposing to under-
take a similar expedition to Louisiana, etc.

"June 26, 1788. [Concha, Fernando de la. Governor of New Mexico, 1787-94].
To [Comandante general] Jacobo Ugarte y Loyola [Chihuahua]. Relative to
the expedition of Pedro Vial, ordered by Ugarte y Loyola [1788] Jan. 23, to
seek adirect route to Natchitoches. Louisiana." This letter speaksof Francisco
Xavier Fragoso as an important member of the expedition, a man of honorable
reputation, who had been for many years a soldier in the province, could read
and write, and had the ability to write a clear and useful account of the expe-
dition. Concha also tells Ugarte that according to his request he has informed
Vial of the very high opinion Ugarte has of him, and of the satisfaction Ugarte
feels in considering the explorer's zeal. The letter in closing mentions certain
inducements which have been offered Vial as a desirable and useful colonist
if he will settle permanently in the province.

"January 27, 1789. LTgarte y Loyola Jacobo [Comandante general] to [Governor]
Fernando de la Concha, [Santa F^]. An.swering preceding letter cf June 26,
1788 from Concha to Ugarte, relative to the expeditions of Pedro Vial, Josef
Mares and Alejandro Martin between Santa F^ and San Antonio de B^^xar,
etc.

"January 26, 1780. Ugarte y Loyola, Jacobo [Comandantegeneral] to [Governor]
Fernando de la Concha. [Santa Fe]. Transmitting letter of Blanc (Luis de)
to Ugarte y Loyola, which mentions ^Diario y derrotero' of Pedro Vial and his
recent expeditions, and proposes the opening of commercial relations between
Louisiana and New Mexico, etc.

"June 15, 1789. Concha, Fernando de la, [Governor of New Mexico] to [Coman-
dante general] Jacobo Ugarte y Loyola, [Chihuahua]. Answering preceding
letter of Jan. 26, 17S9 from L^garte y Loyola to Concha, relative to Comandante
Luis de Blanc's project for opening commerce between New Mexico and Loui-
siana, mentioning Pedro Vial, etc."

Note. — This plan and those described in titles 684-690, relate to the exploration
of the strait of Fuca. Bancroft, in his Northwest coast, v. 1, ch. 8, goes consider-
ably in detail relating to this expedition, with maps and extracts from reports.
Haro's map, described in title 690, and Eliza's map of 1791, are reproduced in
Papers relating to the treaty of Washington, 1872, described in Phillips'
Alaslca and the northwest part of North America, pp. '72-75.
The reproduction of Eliza's map is in the Kohl Collection, title 264, which con-
tains the following border manuscript note:

"This is a copy of an extremely interesting chart, preserved in the Archives of
the Topographical Bureau in Washington among other manuscript-charts come
from Mexico. The original chart comprizes the whole of Vancouver-island. We
give here however only that part of it, which represents De Fuca-Strait and the
Rosario Channel so as they were surveyed and explored in the year 1791 by the
Spanish navigator Eliza. In the title of the chart, translated into English is
stated the following:

' 'j4 chart, which contains the interior and turning of the Coasts from 48° to 50°
N. L. scrupulously examined by the Lieutenant of the Navy Don Francisco Eliza,
Commander of the packetboat of his Majesty San Carlos and of the Galliot Sta.
Satumina (Alias la Orcasitas). And the lately made discovery of the Great Channel
of Nuestra Senora del Rosario. Longitude of the Meridian of S. Bias and after
the newest Astronomical Observation, made in this part of Santa Cruz de Nuca
(Nootka) in the year 1791, by the Captain of the navy Don Alexandro Malaspina. —
All those reconnoiterings were made in this year 1791.'

"From this we see, that the chart pretends to have been made in the year 1791,
and to represent the surveys and discoveries of Don Francisco Eliza. And of
the truth of this statement it is easy to convince us by a comparison of the dates
and names given on the chart with the dates and names, given in the reports on
Eliza's exploration in the Journal of the Spanish voyage to these regions under
Valdea and tialiauo (1792).— Everything, what we learn from the report agrees

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 423

with what we see depicted on the chart, which is very acurately drawn, and
which is either the very chart, made by Eliza himself, or at least a true copy of it.
The chart is so very interesting and valuable, because we see the discoveries of
Eliza so minutely depicted on it. Eliza was the first, who penetrated into the
Rosario-Channel , the first who gave this and many other names. We have no
special journal of his voyage, we possess only the scattered allusions to his expe-
dition in the said work of Galiano and Valdez. I have also never seen before
his chart, nor ever heard it alluded too. I believe it was perfectly unknown to
all the historians of the Northwestern discoveries.

"Eliza penetrated nearly to the central part of the great Gulf of Georgia. His
names were nearly all adopted and preserved by his successors Galiano and
Valdes in the year 1792 and we shall meet them again on the chart of these
navigators."

An interesting map relating to the exploration of 1775 referred to in Bancroft,
as above, p. 318, is found in the Kohl Collection in the Library of Congress,
no. 295 with this border ms. description:

"The first of the great modern Spanish expeditions to explore the Northwest
coast of America under Juan Perez was made in the year 1774. And from this
expedition I believe we have no charts left.

" Soon after the return of Perez the Viceroy of Mexico, Don Antonio Bucarelli,
ordered to prepare a new expedition, and put it under command of Don Bruno
Heceta, Don Juan de Ayala and Don Juan de la Bodega y Quadra. They were
accompanied by Perez and Antonio Maurelle as pilots.

" They sailed from S. Bias March 1775, with the order to go if jiossible as high
as 65° N. L. The ships, of which this expedition was composed, remained
sometimes in company, sometimes they were separated, and touched different
times at different places of the coast. The most distant place, which one of the
vessels, commanded by Bodoga y Quadra, reached, was 58° N. L. But they
could not find De Fuca's Strait, though they looked for it, and though Perez
was said to have been there the year before.

" The most interesting geographical discoverj', which was made by this expedi-
tion on the coast of California, was the discovery of the mouth of the Columbia-
River, which one of the ships under Hecata entered on the home-voyage. He
could not explore this entrance, but he supposed it to be the motith of some
great river. It was called after him: 'Entrada de Heceta ' (Heceta' s Inlet)
"Also Bodega y Quadra made on his home-voyage a new discovery. It was a
spacious harbor to the North of S. Francisco, which was called: 'Puerto
Bodega, ' and it was believed to be the same harbor, in which S. Francis Drake
(1578) landed and careened his vessels. The pilot Maurelle wrote the journal i 'f
this voyage, and made also the chart, of which we conmiunicate here that part
what represents the coast of California.

426 LIBRAEY OF CONGRESS

Bodega y Quadra, Juan Francisco de la — Continued.

"We have taken it from a copy of the chart, which was made in Madrid, signed
and approved by the celebrated Navarrete, director of the Spanish Archives,
and which is preserved in the State Department in Washington. The chart
has the following title (translated into English) 'A reduced chart of the
Northern coasts and seas of California, constructed after the observations, made
by D. Juan F. de la Bodega y Quadra, Commander of the ship Sonora, and by
the pilot Don Fr. Antonio Maurelli, in the voyage of discovery, which was made
by order of the most excellent senor the Viceroy D. Antonio Bucarelli y Ursua,
in the year 1775.

"The most remarkable and newly introduced features of this chart are the fol-
lowing: the lately discovered 'Puerto de la Bodega' (Bodega's harbor).
' ' ' Puerto de la Trinidad ' (Trinidad harbor) ' Los Monges ' (the Monks) the Rocks
near 'Cabo de Diligencias' (our present Cape Oxford)
" ' Las tres Marias ' (the three Marys) or the rocks near 'Cape Perpetua.'
" 'La Entrada de Heceta' (Heceta's inlet) or the mouth of the Columbia River.
" 'Isla de Dolores' — Destruction Island.
" ' No indication of De Fuca's Strait.' "

It is also referred to as Bodega's first voyage in Greenhow's ifemoir, historical
and political, on the northwest coast of America, p. 71. The second voyage is
referred to on p. 84 of the same work. Pp. 211-216 give the occurrences at
Nootka sound, which are translations of letters of Bodega y Cuadro, of aug. 2,
1792, and reply of J. Robert Gray and Joseph Ingraham. The following short
notice of Bodega's life is taken from Diccionario encyclopedico hispano-ameri-
cano. 4°. Barcelona, 1888. v. S. p. 718:

"Marine espanol. N. a mediados del siglo xviii; M. en 1794. Hizo varios

Note. — A reproduction of this map is found in the Kohl Collection, in the

Library of Congress, number 271a, with the following border manuscript

description :

"This is a copy of a printed map, made in the year 1795, by Don Juan Lopez,

and of which a copy is preserved in the British Museum. The Spanish title of

the map, translated into English, is thus:

"A geographical Map of the government of New Granada or New Mexico, with

the provinces of Nabajo and Moqui, by Don Juan Lopez, a pensioneer of his

Majesty, and member of the Royal Academy of .Sciences in Sevilla, in the year

1795.

" The author says, that for the construction of this map he used besides other

generally known sources, a manuscript map of the interior of New Mexico,

without the name of its author.

" He represents on this map, which does not comprise a large tract of country,

the part of the Rio del Norte, North of 34° N. L. and the upper part of the

rivers, which flow to the West and East of it. The valley of the Gila lies more

to the South.

THE LOWEKT COLLECTION 431

"The Rio del Norte and its branches (PuercoKiver etc.) are very well laid down.

Ita source is however one degree too far North in 39° N. L. The pass, called

'Puerto tPuerta?) del Almagro' is probably our present 'Goachatope-Pass'.

The rivers to the East 'Gallinas' and 'Cocas' correspond probably to our Rio

Pecos,— the 'R de las Conchas Colorado' to our Canadian River,— the 'Rio de

Napesta' to our Cimarron River, — the Rio de S. Juan and 'Rio de Jesus Maria,'

which empties into the River Mississippi or 'Palizada' to the upper forks of

our Arkansas River.

" To the West we find the ' Rio de Nabajo' — perhaps our Grand River, a branch

of the Colorado. Our map gives (in a Spanish inscription) the supposition, that

this river Nabajo joins the Gila.

" 'Rio del Tizon o de la buena Esperanza' (River Tizon or of the Good Hope)

may be our 'Green Ri\er', which like the Tizon has its heads beyond 43°

N. L. It is a branch of the Rio Colorado. A Spanish inscription on our map

says, that the Rio Tizon has its source beyond 45° N. L. and that it falls into the

Califomian Gulf, and that this river is probably the real Rio Colorado of the

North or the River of the MartjTs, the course of which has been questioned

and searched so often. "

An interesting statement about this map is the following in an article by
Isaac Joslin Cox entitled The Louisiana- Texas frontier, published in the Quarterly
of the Texas state historical association, July, 1906, v. 10, pp. 34-36.
"In 178-5 Stephen Miro, the governor-general of Louisiana, informed the vice-
roy of New Spain that the French had left no documents at New Orleans
relating to the limits of Louisiana. In March, 1788, Don Angel Angelino
prepared a map of the province of Texas e\-idently from data furnished by
Evla's expedition, but our authority contains no de,scription of it. Later

440 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

Spain — Continued.

Miro urged the adoption of the Sabine as the boundary and the establishment
of reciprocal commerce between his pro\-ince and Texas. The English, mean-
ing the people of the newly established United States, would now be kept
away from the Mississippi, so there would be no danger in establishing free
trade between the two pro\-ince3. This suggestion is in keeping with the
determination of the Spaniards to deprive the United States of the use of the
Mississippi, or of any establishment upon its banks below the Ohio. Miru's
advocacy of the Sabine as the boundary did not appear to make that suggestion
any more acceptable to the Spanish home government. In 1799 the maj) of
Don Juan de Langara was published, and upon this the Sabine was given as
the boundary. This map was later criticised by a Spanish writer as purely
maritime and prepared when the question of limits was of little importance,
and therefore a map that could not be cited upon that point. An American
criticises it as being on too small a scale, and like all others extant, as failing
to give an adequate idea of the coast between the Mississippi and the Sabine.
"Comparatively little was added to the store of geographical knowledge con-
cerning the Louisiana-Texas frontier by travelers and explorers during this
period. Important visitas of the Texas establishments occurred in 1762 and
1767. The inspection of Marques de Rubi in 1767 has already been mentioned,
but this, as in the case of the preceding, only incidentally touched upon geo-
graphical details. The map of the engineer la Fora, who accompanied Rubf,
is interesting as showing the position of Texas with reference to its neighbors
on the south and west, but it gives no accurate information regarding the
eastern boundary of that province. The same may be said of the famous
inspection of 1778 under Cabellero de Croix, who was accompanied by Padre
Morfi. A record of one of the numerous journeys of Mezieres among the Indiana
of northeastern Texas has been preserved to us; and while this contains some
geographical data concerning the rivers of east Texas, like his letters it is
especially important for its description of the Indians. The same is true of
the really remarkable journey of Pedro Vial, from San Antonio to Santa Fe,
by way of Colorado, Brazos, Red, and Pecos rivers. The following year A'ial
returned by way of the Res river and Nacogdoches to San Antonio. In 1801,
two residents of I>ouisiana made the journey from Vera Cruz to New Orleans,
recording many interesting observations upon the country traversed. These
various journals, however, added more to the wealth of the Spanish archives
than to the general knowledge of the period."

" Poirson a copi^ cette carte de plusieurs autres, la plupart espagnoles, et toutes
m^diocres, dont il paratt en avoir fait une plus mauvaise. II importe, n^an-
moins, d'y remarquer, k propos des bouches du Mississipi, que tout en donnant
le trace des passes a la Loutre et de I'Est, et marquant la passe du Sud com me la
continuation du fieuve, il nomme seulement la passe Sud-ouest, sans en tracer
le cours. Cette passe ne fut, en effet, reconnue navigable que vers 1810, quand
les mesures de Vembargo prises par le Gouvemement Federal forcerent plusieurs
na\-ires a s'echapper k I'improviste par cette issue.

In the "Muster tables" of the "Discovery" and the "Chatham," published in
Edmond S. Meany, Vancouver's discovery of Puget sound . . . 1907, pp. 335-
340, there is no reference to Edward Roberts.

The footnote to pp. 182-183 contains this notice of captain Henry Roberta,
whose various maps are well known in connection with the northwest portion of
North America;

"Vancouver is the principal biographer of this man. His life is not included in
the Dictionary of national biography or any of the other standard sources of
such information. Howe\er, in the introduction to his narrative, Vancouver
gives a fine record of part of his life as follows: —

" 'Captain Henry Roberts, of known and tried abilities, who had served under
Captain Cook during his two last voyages, and whose attention to the scientific
part of his profession had afforded that great navigator frequent opportunities

THE LOWERY COLLECTION 447

of naming him with much respect, was called upon to take charge of, and to
command, the proposed expedition.

" 'At that period, I had just returned from a station at Jamacia under the com-
mand of Commodore (now Vice-Admiral) Sir Alan Gardner, who mentioned me
to Lord Chatham and the Board of Admiralty; and I was solicited to accom-
pany Captain Roberts as his second. In this proposal I acquiesced, and found
myself very pleasantly situated, in being thus connected with a fellow trav-
eler for whose abilities I bore the greatest respect, and in whose friendship and
good opinion I was proud to possess a place. And as we had sailed together
with Captain Cook on his voyage towards the south pole, and as both had after-
wards accompanied him with Captain Clerke in the Ducoveri/ during his last
voyage, I had no doubt that we were engaged in an expedition, which would
prove no less interesting to my friend than agreeable to my wishes'.
' ' There followed the excitement over the Nootka episode and the Spanish Arma-
ment, in which Captain Roberts was sent away to be ready to fight the Spaniards
in the West Indies should war actually ensue. The treaty was signed, and
because Captain Roberts was going away the command of the expedition
' Round the World ' was given to Commander George Vancouver.
" On the title-page of the published account of Captain Cook's last voyage is this
phrase, 'Illustrated with maps and charts, from the original drawings made by
Lieut. Henry Roberts under the direction of Captain Cook.' It is well known
that Captain Cook lost his life on the Sandwich Islands before the completion
of his last voyage. The editor who prepared the journals for publication pays
this tribute to Roberts: ' Lieutenant Roberts was also frequently consulted, and
always found to be a ready and effectual assistant, when any nautical difficulties
were to be cleared up.'

" In the same introduction to the 1784 edition of Cook's last voyage may be found
a long letter signed by Henry Roberts and dated at Shoreham, Sussex, May 18,
1784. The scarcity of materials about the life and work of Roberts will justify
the insertion here of the first paragraph of that letter as follows:
"'Soon after our departure from England, I was intrusted by Captain Cook to
complete a map of the world as a general chart, from the best materials he was
in possession of for that purpose; and before his death this business was in a
great measure accomplished; That is, the grand outline of the whole was
arranged, leaving only those parts vacant or unfinished, which he expected to
fall in with and explore. But on our return home, when the fruits of our voyage
were ordered by the Lord Commissioners of the Admiralty to be published, the
care of the general chart being consigned to me, I was directed to prepare it
from the latest and best authorities; and also to introduce Captain Cook's three
successive tracks, that all his discoveries, and the different routes he had taken
might appear together, by this means to give a general idea of the whole. This
task having been performed by me, it is necessary, for the information of the
Reader, to state the heads of the several authorities which I have followed in
such parts of the chart as differ from what was drawn up immediately under the
inspection of Captain Cook; and when the Public are made acquainted, that
many materials, necessary to complete and elucidate the work, were not, at the
time, on board the Resolution, or in his possession, the reason will appear very
obvious, why these alterations and additions were introduced contrary to the
original drawing.'

" Then follows a thorough discussion of the authorities used in preparing the
general chart.

" The peculiar situation of Point Roberts will always draw attention to this name.
"The international boundary, along the forty-ninth parallel, cuts across the
peninsula south of the mouth of the Eraser River and thus gives this important
point to the United States, while the balance of the peninsula belongs to the
Dominion of Canada."

Note. — A contemporaneous review of this map is found in Neue allgemeine
geographischc cphemeriden. Weimar, 1820. v. 7, pp. 365-367.
In completing the editorial notes in this work there are two maps in the Library
of Congress which are of interest. One is a manuscript map entitled, "Carta
esferica de los Territories de la Alta y Baja Californias y Estado de Sonora Con-
struida por las mejores noticias y observaciones propias del Teniente de Navio D.
Jose M. Narvaes. Afto de 182.3." 42 x 41\ inches. It includes not only Cali-
fornia but also part of Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Mexico. The map
gives "Distrito" boundary lines in red, "Derrota de Juan Bautista de Ansa
desde Tubac a Monterrey en 1775," etc. In the lower left hand comer is a table
entitled, "Division de la Alta California y numero de Habitantcs que comprcn'^f
de ambV sexos. Idem de la Baja California."

The author of this map, 3os6 M. Narvaes, is probably of the same family a8
the Jos6 Narvaes, who was an officer with Eliza in 1791, mentioned in Report
of U. S. coast and geodetic survey . . . 1884- Washington, 1885, p. 590; and
also in Manuel Orozco y Berra, Apuntes para la hisloria de la geografia en Mexico,
p. 297.

The second map is entitled A map of Sonora and gulf of California, By licut
R[obert] W[illiam E[ale] Hardy, r. n. Engraved by Sidy Hall, Bury Slrt Bloomsby
London, Published by Henry Colburn, New Burlington Str( Augi 1829. 13 x 17
inches. It is found in Hardy's Travels in the interior of Mexico in 1825, 1826,
1827, & 1828 . . . London, 1829.
