I AM descended from an ancient Spanish
family, that traces its ancestors among the
first Christians, and produced several heroes
in the earliest ages of our monarchy. Don
Juan de Grandez, my father, was a grandee of

wealth and respectability. Alcantara is my
native place ; I was bred for the honourable
profession of arms, and served as a volunteer
