The Journal of Robert Knox (1681); "The General, seeing that defeat, and himself like to be taken, called his black boy (slave) to give him water to drink, and snatching the knife that stuck by his boy’s side, stabbed himself with it" The Journal of João Ribeyro (1681); "The General, having done his duty as a chieftain and a soldier, threw himself in the midst of the enemy and cut down all who were bold enough to remain near him, till pierced with balls and arrows he fell dead on a heap of enemies whom he had slain." He was succeeded by Jorge de Albuquerque and Filipe Mascarenhas respectively. (en)
