Encounter with the Taino People of Cuba
June 4, 1539.
"Captain Johan Ruiz Lobillo went up into the country with about forty foot soldiers and came upon some huts but were able to take only two Indian women. To rescue them, nine Indians followed him, shooting at him for three leagues; and they slew one Christian and wounded three or four, yet without his being able to do them any harm, although he had arquebusiers and cross-bow men, because these Indians are as agile and as good fighters as can be found among all the nations of the world."
