News places the Pinta in a river at the island’s end

At sunrise the king of that land came to the caravel and told the Admiral that he had sent for gold, and that he wished to cover him all over with gold before he left; rather, he begged him not to leave; and the king and a brother of his, and another kinsman, a close confidant, ate with the Admiral, and these two told him that they wished to go to Castile with him. While they were at this, word came that the caravel Pinta was in a river at the end of that island: at once the cacique sent a canoe there, and in it, from the Admiral, a seaman, for he loved the Admiral so much that it was a marvel. The Admiral was now working with all the haste he could to make ready for the return to Castile.
