4.    After spending about a month building rafts to ferry his men and supplies across the great river, de Soto continued westward through Arkansas into east Texas. Failing to find any gold or other treasure in Arkansas and Texas, de Soto returned to the river, where he died from a long-festering wound suffered in an earlier battle. Hernando de Soto was buried in the muddy waters of the great river that will always be associated with his name. After de Soto’s burial, the survivors of his expedition, which was less than half its original size, sailed down the Mississippi to the Gulf Coast, where they followed the coastline
to the settlement at Tampico, Mexico.
