To Pier Soderini, Gonfalonier of the Republic of Venice. No. 34. 20 pp. (622) Note. — " The island of Ity is a problem which Varnhagen has solved, but not very satisfactorily, by assuming that it re- ferred to the Bermudas, and that the expedition sailed from Cape Caneveral. . . . However, the difficulty is cleared if we s...uppose that the word greco is, as suggested by Varnhagen, a typographical error for siroco, in which case we might take it for granted that Vespucci sailed from Cape Hatteras to the Bermudas [August 6, 1597] — twenty-four years earlier than the supposed first discovery of those islands. " — p. 18. Fiske, in his Discovery of A merica (vol. 2, pp. 58-60), favors Varn- hagen's theory of Vespucci's first voyage. See also Fiske's Preface to his Discovery, pp. Xiii-xv. Once a week. London. 8°.
