_Garcias Alvarado_ and _Christopher Sotello_ were Joynt-Governors of _Cusco_; but quarrelling, and coming to Blows in like manner, _Sotello_ was slain: This _Almagro_ took very hainously, as being his intimate Friend, giving forth threatning Speeches of Revenge; which _Alvarado_ inform’d of, and intending some way or other to prevent all Dangers, and save himself, he invited _Almagro_ to a Feast, but privately resolving to make it a Bloody Banquet, by his Death at the Table. Of this he being inform’d, as we mention’d before, staid at home, and privately sent for some Soldiers that had belong’d to _Sotello_, sending word that he was indispos’d: _Alvarado_, under a shew of Kindness, goes to _Almagro_, hoping to perswade him to come to his prepar’d Treat; but so soon as he was enter’d the Hall, they clapp’d to the Gate, and the Soldiers falling upon _Alvarado_, slew him: But soon after _Almagro_ was call’d in question, and not long enjoy’d this his usurp’d Authority; for the Emperor _Charles_ sending the Learned _Vacca de Castro_ with full Authority to _Peru_, to settle that disturb’d Kingdom, _Almagro_ now us’d to Govern, had no Ears to become a Subject; therefore he march’d with an Army to meet _Castro_, by whom, after a bloody Fight, being beaten and put to flight, having four thousand Men, he fell into the Victors Hands near _Cusco_, where he was treated very severely; for shortly after he was condemn’d to be Beheaded; others were strangled, and some torn in pieces with Horses.
