_Almagro_ being too weak fell into the Dukes hands, who order’d him to be strangled in the Gaol, and his body afterwards to be drawn to the Market-place, and there publickly Beheaded. _Ferdinand Pizarro_ being not long after sent to _Spain_, with the fifths of the gotten Treasure for the Emperor, was Imprison’d in the Castle _Motto_, for _Almagro_’s Death: But what further happen’d to him there, or became of him, hath never been Recorded by any Pen. [Sidenote: _Ferdinand Pizarro_ never obtains his liberty.] [Sidenote: Young _Almagro_ stabs the Duke.] But young _Almagro_, instigated by his Guardian _John Rada_, resolving, to be reveng’d for his Fathers Death; to that purpose he went to _Los Reyes_, where by the help of some hir’d Male-contents, he design’d to Murder the Duke upon St. _John_’s day, in the Church at high Service: But this business was not so closely carry’d, but the Duke had some inkling thereof, who therefore stay’d at home, and went not to Mass that day. The Conspirators doubting the event, hearing that their Plot was discover’d, though defeated in their purpose, yet not fail’d in their Courage, ran at noon day to the Palace, crying, _Kill the Tyrant, kill the Traytor_. But _Pizarro_ being so much forewarn’d, had lock’d up the Gates, and arm’d himself, which when they could not enter, yet they went back through the City, and waving a bloody Sword, cry’d, _Pizarro is slain_; this being believ’d, above two hundred private Friends to _Almagro_ appear’d, who all ran to the Palace, crouding about the Gates: And _Francisco de Chares_ coming out at a private Door, hoping to pacifie the Mutineers, was immediately Stab’d; but they rushing in the way he came, found some stout opposition, for seven Halberdiers of his Guard fought till they were all kill’d in the Dukes presence; but _Pizarro_ was taken alive, and being brought before _Almagro_, he Savagely Butcher’d him with his own hands; which done, they ran crying along the Streets, _Long live the Emperor, and_ Didacus Almagro. [Sidenote: Great slaughter in _Los Reye_.] But after all this, _Pizarro_’s Party joyning together, valiantly withstood the Conspirators, so that a considerable number were slain on both sides, yet _Almagro_ at last getting the better, confiscated the Goods of all those that were against him; and now every one shew’d him the respect of Chief Governor, till the Emperor should either settle him, or send another. From hence Marching to _Cusco_, he had like to have paid for all, but prevented by private intelligence thereof; which happen’d thus, [Sidenote: Strange Transactions between _Alvarado_, _Sotello_, and _Almagro_.] [Sidenote: Fight between _Castro_ and _Almagro_.] [Sidenote: _Castro_’s Cruelty.]
