The supposition may be hazarded that it was this opinion which Magellan
gave at the Council of War in opposition to Alfonso d’Albuquerque,
which set D. Manuel against him. Such opposition was enough to have
made Albuquerque write unfavourably of Magellan to D. Manuel; and the
ill-will of D. Manuel to Magellan, and his refusal to grant him a due
recognition of his services is not otherwise sufficiently accounted
for. On the other hand, Gaspar Correa, who was Albuquerque’s secretary
at one time, does not indicate this; but Correa is the most friendly to
Magellan of all the Portuguese historians, and does not appear, like
the others, to have taxed Magellan with treason.
