Excerpt from The Philippine Islands, 1493-1898, Vol. 24: Explorations by Early Navigators, Descriptions of the Islands and Their Peoples, Their History and Records of the Catholic Missions; 1630-1634
Medina, continuing his history, recounts the choice of Lorenzo de Le6n as provincial of the Augustinian order, and his subsequent deposition; but this is stated in brief and cautious terms. In 1602 Pedro de Arce (later bishop of Cebu) is elected to that high post; Medina extols the virtues and ability of this noted prelate, and relates many things to Show these. He then proceeds to give another version of the difficulties connected with the second election of Lorenzo de Le6n, one side of which was told in vol. XIII; Medina takes sides with that provincial, and regrets his deposition from Office, but contents himself with a statement of the bare facts, and some general comments.
