In the morning, we took a walk to Akxotla, where we wished to see an ancient painting.

Here we encountered greater suspicion than before, and, after wasting the greater part of the day, accomplished nothing.

It is true an indian made a _camalpa_ for us.

This is a stringed musical instrument; though the name is Aztec, it is unlikely that it was known before the coming of the Spaniards.

Quechol says the word means mouth-harp, coming from the Aztec _cam_, mouth, and the Spanish _harpa,_ harp.
