The Local Natives Turn On Balboa
The local natives have been rebelling and are now planing to burn Santa Marta down. The residents have also rebelled against me. They have accused me of being a bullying, despotic leader. I feel as though my time here is up , but I do not seem to comprehend the peoples' rebellion. They have sent Juan de Quicedo and Rodrigo de Colmensres to Hispaniola for they fear not to hear from Spain. Most of the people in the colony have turned against me, and it has been brought to my attention that I will have to answer to my treatment to Enciso. I have made plans to set out for the Southern Sea on my own before Quicedo and Colmensres arrive to arrest me.
