Thisreluctance proved so formidable an impediment that Columbus had tocommunicate with the King and Queen; with the result that on the 23rd ofMay the population was summoned to the church of Saint George, where theNotary Public read aloud to them the letter from the sovereignscommanding the port to furnish ships and men, and an additional ordersummoning the town to obey it immediately. An inducement was provided inthe offer of a free pardon to all criminals and persons under sentencewho chose t...o enlist.
Still the thing hung fire; and on June 20 a new and peremptory order wasissued by the Crown authorising Columbus to impress the vessels and crewif necessary. Time was slipping away; and in his difficulty Columbusturned to Martin Alonso Pinzon, upon whose influence and power in thetown he could count. There were three brothers then in thisfamily--Martin Alonso, Vincenti Yanez, and Francisco Martin, all pilotsthemselves and owners of ships. These three brothers saw some hope ofprofit out of the enterprise, and they exerted themselves onChristopher's behalf so thoroughly that, not only did they afford himhelp in the obtaining of ships, men, and supplies, but they all threedecided to go with him.
