[8] Hernando Pizarro was in prison in the castle of Medina del Campo for twenty-three years, a terrible fate for so active minded a man. His detention, however, was not close or severe. When the daughter of the Marquis Pizarro, by an Inca Princess, arrived in Spain under the care of her step-father Francisco de Ampuero, she was married to her uncle Hernando in prison. At length the old warrior was released, having outlived all his enemies. He went to Truxillo, where he had property, and lived there to a great age. Hernando Pizarro had children, and the marquisate was revived for his grandson, with the additional title "_de la Conquista_." The new Marquis was a great-grandson of the Marquis Pizarro and also of the Inca Huayna Capac. [9] Saavedra, Sotelo, and Chaves (the bad one of the two). [10] Gómez de Alvarado. [11] Except F. de Chaves (the bad one), who soon afterwards was put to death by Herrada. [Illustration] THE WAR OF CHUPAS BY CIEZA DE LEÓN CHAPTER I _How the Marquis Don Francisco Pizarro went to the province of Arequipa, to found a city there, and divided the natives among the persons who would remain there as citizens._ The Governor, Don Francisco Pizarro, determined to go and found the city of _Arequipa_. The affairs of the town of _Plata_ were in good order, the captain Pero Anzures having made arrangements for the maintenance of the settlers, and for the orderly service of the Indians. Having visited the province of Collao the Governor set out with the Spaniards who were in attendance on him. He travelled so well that he arrived at the district where the city was to be founded. Then messengers arrived with news that the Inca Manco wished to make peace. This was not true. The captain Gonzalo Pizarro having departed from Cuzco in search of the Inca, some events happened between them. Gonzalo occupied a rocky eminence, destroyed two bridges, and pursued the Inca so closely that he was on the point of falling into his hands. The Inca was so pressed that he sent messengers to the Governor. Don Francisco Pizarro was anxious to bring the Inca into obedience to his Majesty, so he determined to return to Cuzco to secure that end. While he was on the journey from _Chuqui-apu_[12] to Arequipa, he reflected that the affairs of Quito were very important, that three or four cities were already founded there, while there were reports of provinces where as many more might be founded. So he resolved to send Gonzalo Pizarro there in accordance with a commission from his Majesty authorizing him to send one of his brothers as Governor of those parts if he should think it desirable. Having come to this decision the Marquis wrote to his brother with orders presently to set out for Quito. Gonzalo Pizarro, on receiving the command of the Marquis, set out for Quito with some followers, by the royal road.
