INGATHERINGS FROM OUR HISTORY AND LITERATURE]
VOL. IV.
ROBERT TOMSON, of Andover, Merchant.
_Voyage to the West Indies and Mexico_,
1556-1558, A.D.
[HAKLUYT. _Voyages._ 1589.]
The marvel is, that at this date, these Englishmen were allowed
to go to New Spain at all; it was probably one of the results
of the marriage of PHILIP with MARY TUDOR. BLAKE, FIELD, and
TOMSON were probably the first British islanders who reached
the city of Mexico. This narrative also gives us an account of
the first _auto-da-fé_ in that city.
