Not illustrated. 1901 Excerpt: ... in 1624 ibid., p. 174), and Christovao Dorte de Sousa's letter to this period of disorder are too confused to enable us to be certain even of the names of the reigning kings. D. AFFONSO II, a son (probably illegitimate) of D. Diogo, ascended the throne of his father, but was murdered by his brother, D. Bernardo, who appears to have been the candidate favoured by the Portuguese. He at once sent Father Estevao de Laguos on an embassy to Queen Catherine of Portugal, who, in a letter dated June 26th, 1562,1 congratulated him upon his accession, whilst gently chiding him for the murder of his brother. This King was evidently friendly disposed towards the Portuguese; and Antonio Vieira, a negro, who had visited Portugal as member of an embassy, when writing to Queen Catherine in April 1566,2 suggested that he might be induced to allow the mines of copper and tin to be worked. D. Bernardo is stated by the Duke of Mbamba to have fallen in a war with the Anzicas, " in defence of Christianity and the Fatherland." He was succeeded by D. Henrique, a brother of D. Diogo, who, after a short and troubled reign, died of a wound received in a battle, either against some revolted vassals,3 or fighting the Anzicanas.4 He was the last king of the original dynasty, for Alvaro I, his successor, was only a step-son. D. Alvaro I And The Ayaka, 1568-1574/' D. Alvaro, immediately on his accession, sent an embassy to Portugal, to apologise for the massacre of Queen Catherine of Portugal, dated (Luandu) November 4th, 1561 ibid., p. 113); also a letter by P. Rodrigues de Pias, i565 (Eucher, Le Congo, p. 70). 1 Printed by Paiva Manso, p. 114. 1 His letter is printed by Paiva Manso, p. 116.
