and Lopez, [90] with Raya Bongso of Joló (the same who, with his wife
Tuambaloca, was conquered by Corcuera's troops in 1638) and the envoys
of Corralat. Combés gives the full text of both this and the former
treaty. A Dutch fleet attempted to make a landing near Zamboanga,
but were repulsed by the Spaniards with much loss. Corralat and
Moncay came to hostilities, and the former implored the aid of the
Spaniards; Atienza sent an armed force to succor Corralat, and Moncay
fled. Salicala of Joló and Panguian Cachilo of Guimba undertook (1648)
to raid the Visayan Islands; but the latter was attacked and slain by
a Spanish squadron, which so intimidated Salicala that he hastened
back to Joló. Meanwhile, a notable event occurred in Mindanao, the
conversion of Corralat's military commander, Ugbu, to the Christian
faith--which of course tended to strengthen the ties between Corralat
and the Spaniards; and Ugbu afterward rendered them efficient service
in the Palapag insurrection, which caused his death. Salicala died
(1649) and his parents, Bongso and Tuambaloca, were thus able to
maintain the peace which they had established with the Spaniards; that
queen afterward left Joló, retiring to Basilan. Moncay also died, soon
afterward, and was succeeded in Buhayen by Balatamay, a Manobo chief
who had married Moncay's daughter; he joined Corralat in alliance
with the Spaniards. In January, 1649, Pedro Duran de Monforte went
with an armed fleet to northeastern Borneo, to punish its people
for aiding the Joloans in their raids; the Spaniards plundered
several villages, burned three hundred caracoas, and carried away
two hundred captives. The expedition was accompanied by Jesuits, who
afterward opened successful missions in Borneo. The insurrection of
1649-50 spread to Joló and Mindanao, but was quelled by the Spaniards
(see Vol. XXXVIII). (Combés, Hist. Mindanao, col. 269-348, 425-498;
