[133] Paris MS., “Dom Garcia.” Garcia, and not Gonzalo, was the name of this gentleman. See Barros and Castanheda. Lisbon Ac. note.
[134] Paris MS., “Sam Joze.” Lisbon Ac. note. I read this “Sam Jorge.”
[135] Paris MS., “a squall at night.” Lisbon Ac. note. I read this “do norte” from the north, and not “de noite.”
[136] It is easily seen that this note does not belong to the Roteiro, and that it was added by the copyist: we have already noticed the difference which there is between it and another similar note of the Paris MS. It seems that the person who wrote it made some mistake, owing to there having been many gentlemen of the name of Menezes at that time in India.... D. Henrique de Menezes succeeded Vasco da Gama, in 1524, as Governor of India, and therefore could not be the D. Amrique de Menezes who came to the kingdom in 1524, as the note says. This deserving Governor died at Cananor on the day of the Purification of 1526. Lisbon Ac. note.
