146 THE WAR OF GREEK INDEPENDENCE ually been arranged between Byron and Odysseus at Salona, when the poet's death put a stop to the plot. Odysseus now, fearing lest he should lose all share in the loan, gave up suddenly all his schemes of independent action, and hurried to Nauplia to pay court to the Government. After the death of Byron, the first instalment of the loan, amounting to 40,000?., which had been banked by him at Zante, had been, to the dismay and disgust of the Greeks, detained by the English administration of the Ionian Islands. After the destruction of Psara by the Turks, 1 on the 2nd of July, however, the money had been handed over to the Greek Government; and, at the news, not only Odysseus, but Kolokotrones, Niketas, and every other chieftain, great or small, who could formulate the shadow of a claim, hastened to Nauplia to share in the spoil. For the Government, however, duty and interest for once coincided ; and they determined to fit out a squadron to avenge the disaster of Psara; all the easier for them to make, a decision which it was as it would benefit their main supporters, the Hydriot ship-owners. Any Dr. Sophienopoulo entered, handed the General a report on the state of the hospital, and answered various queries about it. No hospital existed! Gordon, i. 121, and note. * See the next chapter.
SECOND CIVIL WAR 147 funds that might be left over, they determined to hold in reserve. For the disappointed chieftains and primates, this put the coping-stone on the edifice of the misdeeds of the Government. 1 Konduriottes had used his powers as President throughout to favour the islanders at the expense of the other Hellenes; he had thrust his friends, the Hydriot sea captains, the most important military and civil commands ; into all and now the pure stream of British gold was to flow into the same dirty channel ! This was more than the disinterested patriotism of the Moreot primates and the Klephts of the mainland could stand. Furious with jealous rage and disappointed greed, they retired, with their bands of armed followers, from ISTauplia. Odysseus was the first to leave. Kolokotrones followed, and with him went the Moreot primates, who, in the last civil war, had been his main opponents: Sissinis of Gastuni, the great landowner of Elis, who lived upon his estates with more than feudal splendour: 2 Londos, the friend of Byron, whose influence was paramount in Achaia: and Zaimis, who could always reckon on the support of a large part of Arcadia. 1 Prokesch, i. 295. 2 See Finlay, ii. 35. The peasants had to fall on their knees whenever they addressed him, even in reply to a simple question.
