    “From here(HUMONHON ISLAND) we departed and sailed W., and fell in with a large island
    called Seilani [Leyte], which is inhabited, and contains gold; we coasted it, and went to W.S.W., to
    a small inhabited island called Mazaba [Limasawa]. The people are very good, and there we
    placed a cross upon a mountain; and from thence they showed us three islands in the W.S.W.
    direction, and they say there is much gold there, and they showed us how they gather it, and
    they found small pieces like beans and like lentils; and this island is in 9⅓° N. latitude”
