His route homewards was different from that whichhe had before pursued, and the sufferings of his troops much greater.
Often they could find no water, the heat having dried up the pools andbrooks. Many died from thirst, and those who survived, although loadedwith gold, were exhausted for want of food; for the poor Indians broughtgold and jewels, instead of food, as peace offerings to the Spaniards.
At length, after much slaughter of the Indians that dwelt in themountains, and burning of the vil...lages, Balboa and his troops arrived atDarien; having robbed the Indians of all the gold and silver they couldfind. The Spaniards at Darien received with great delight and praise thenews of his success and discovery--a discovery gained at the expense ofmuch unnecessary cruelty and injustice.
He now despatched a ship to Spain, with the news of his discovery, andby it he sent part of the gold he had carried off from the differentIndian tribes.
A few days before this ship reached Spain a new governor had been sentout, by name Padrarias Davila, to take Balboa's place, and with ordersto punish Balboa for his conduct to Enciso.
