Th' local chief tried tae chase th' Spanish explorers back tae their ships, which led tae an exchange o' arrows 🏹 an' musket-fire, in which th' chief was killed. (Puir dobber!) Th' ships remained fur a month at their anchorage "Puertae de la Vera Cruz", wi' armed sailors makin' incursions inlain fur provisions. Queirós annoonced his intention tae foond a city, Nova Jerusalem, an' appointed municipal officers. In early Juin, wi' provisions runnin' law, they left th' bay tae explair th' neighboorin' coastline. Queirós' leid ship becam separated an', whether ben adverse weaither ur mutiny, was unable tae make anchur in th' bay. (Blimey -whit a tale! Th' Spaniards pure mucked 'att up!🙄)
