made her wait some days, enforcing upon her mind what it meant to be a Christian, and what she must believe and observe after her baptism.”  She was named Isabel, and married Master Andrea, a Greek calker, a few days after.  Her son, aged three, and two children, a boy and a girl, of seven and eight years respectively, also received baptism.  Other Indians came, in imitation of Isabel, asking baptism; and seven or eight infants who died received the holy rite that ensured them entrance into heaven.  After being two months in Cebu, Legazpi, although pushing the work on the fortifications as rapidly as possible, sent out, in order to keep his part of the treaty, contingents of men with the natives, at two different times, to aid the latter against their enemies.  The weapons and warlike qualities of the Spaniards gained them great prestige and inspired great terror throughout all the islands.  About this same time “seven or eight Moros, whose chief was called Magomat, [73] came in a canoe to the camp, declaring themselves to be natives of the island of Luzon; and asked the governor for permission to come to this village to trade with a prau which was stationed near this island.  They said that if the Spaniards would trade with them, they would be very glad to have junks come from Luzon with much merchandise for the Spanish trade.”  They had learned of the Spanish settlement through a Moro who had been sent to Panay to buy rice for the fort, and that “they did no harm to anyone, and were possessed of a great quantity of silver and small coins; therefore they had come to find out our manner of trading.”  One of the Moros happening to sneeze while trading for pearls, said “that they could not buy; that that was their custom, and if they did, they would sin therein.”  Through these Moros the natives of Cebu learned to demand tostones [a small coin] in exchange for their articles of trade, which was a loss to the Spaniards; but the latter laid in a good supply of provisions, by the aid of these same Moros.  By the latter, Legazpi sent word to the king of Luzon of his residence in the islands and his desire to meet him and “deliver the message he bore to him from his majesty; and requested that he send him for this, a trustworthy person, or allow him to send some Spaniards thither to treat with the same king.”  These Moros induced two small “junks from Venduro [Mindoro] which is an island near Luzon” to come to trade at Cebu, having told them of the good treatment afforded them.  These latter carried “iron, tin, porcelain, shawls, light woolen cloth and taffety from China, perfumes, and other knick-knacks.”  The master-of-camp and Martin de Goyti were sent with a body of men to obtain provisions among the neighboring islands, in the month of September of 1565.  Guided by certain chiefs of Cebu, they visited an island to the west, inhabited by blacks who lived in a town called Tanay, stopping on the way at a village, hostile to Cebu, where they obtained some food.  The people
