"On the second day after Easter Sunday, Fray Marcos at last left
Vacapa [identified by Bandelier with Matape] . . . and followed the
track of the negro in a northerly direction. After three days' march he
reached the village where Esteban had received the first intelligence of
Cíbola. In three days march from Matape, going north, he must have
reached the valley of the Sonora River, near Babiacora . . . the In-
dians there were Opatas.
