ENRIQUE (also called Enriquillo or HenriquiLLo) (en-ree-kay), Haytian cacique, b. in the 16th century. He was the son of the cacique of Bahoru- co, but was educated in the Christian religion by the monks of the convent of San Francisco, in Managua, Santo Domingo. When he was of age, Enrique took upon himself the government of his tribe.
In 1519 Valenzuela, a Spaniard, inherited an In-
dian commandery situated in Enrique's domains,
and obtained from this chief all the assistance pre-
scribed by law. But the cruel conduct of Valen-
zuela toward the Indians was such that Enrique
had to make repeated complaints to the Spanish
authorities ; obtaining no redress, the cacique final-
ly took to the mountains with a small number of
his followers. There Valenzuela, with twelve colo-
nists, went to attack him, and was defeated and
taken prisoner, but generously set at liberty by
Enrique. Other forces sent by the Spanish govern-
ment were also unsuccessful, and finally Fray
Remigio, who had been Enrique's teacher, was sent
to exhort him to surrender. Enrique answered that
he would give up the struggle if he should be al-
lowed to enjoy the liberty of the mountains. For
thirteen years the Spaniards made no headway, and
in 1533 Gen. Barrio-Nuevo, empowered by the em-
peror, made a treaty of peace with Enrique. The
latter selected the region of Boya as his residence,
and was declared hereditary prince, and many na-
tives flocked to his domains. After this time (about
1544) he is not mentioned bv historians.
