There were amongst the Prisoners, besides those above-mentioned, these two eminent Persons, _Don John_ of _Cordona_, the Son in Law of _Don Bellinger_, and _Don Gasto_, the Son of the Duke of _Medina_, who, though but a Youth, had an honourable Post in his Father’s Army, _Don John_ promised to give a great Sum of Money to be left Prisoner at _Chios_, (which was inhabited by the old _Genoese_) which was accordingly done. As for _Don Gasto_, he was concealed by _Pihal_, in hopes to have a large Price for his Redemption; which Project of his had like to have proved his Ruin: For _Solyman_, by some means or other, smelt out the Cheat, and was grievously vex’d that _Pihal_ should serve him such a Trick. He resolv’d, at the Instigation also of _Rustan_, that _Gasto_ should be brought to Light, that so _Pihal_ might be punish’d; but _Gasto_ died in the Search; some say, of the Plague, others by the procurement of _Pihal_ himself, that he might tell no Tales. This is certain, that, upon the most diligent Search, he could not be found. However, _Pihal_ was afraid to come to _Constantinople_ to appear before his angry Master, lest he might be imprisoned there; but he hovered with a few Galleys about several Islands of the _Ægæan_ Sea, pretending divers Excuses for so doing. But at last _Solyman_, by the persuasion of the chief Eunuch of his Son _Selimus_ gave him his Pardon in these Words: _I, for my part, forgive him his great Offence; but God Almighty, the just Revenger of all Wickedness, inflict just Punishment on him in the Life to come!_ So strongly are the _Turks_ persuaded, that no evil Fact should pass unpunished!
