The Admiral named it San Juan Bautista (Saint John Baptist).

It is what we now call Porto Rico.

He was not able to communicate with any of the inhabitants, as they lived in such fear of the Caribs that they all fled.

All these islands were new to the Admiral and all "very beautiful and of very good land, but this one seemed better than all of them." On Friday, the twenty-second of November, they landed at the island of Hispaniola or Hayti which they so much desired.

None of the party who had made the first voyage were acquainted with this part of the island; but they conjectured what it was, from what the Indian captive women told them.
The part of the island where they arrived was called Hayti, another part Xamana, and the third Bohio.
