This will was brought to Ternate, and all the chiefs of the kingdom swore allegiance to the new king, with great feasting and solemnity.

Possession of the kingdom was taken, with all the ceremonies required by law.

This is what the historians say, especially Juan de Barros--in the third _Decada_, book five, chapter six.

At the end of the seventh chapter, he says that the fortress now held by the tyrant was built by Captain Antonio de Brito, who began the work with his own hands on St.John's day, in 1522.

He did this with the consent of all the Moros, and therefore called the fort San Juan.
