Excerpt from South American Historical Documents Relating Chiefly to the Period of Revolution: From the Collection of George M. Corbacho In these days of rapid change, when Old empires fall and new nations rise within a period of less than five years, it is hard to believe that Spain once ruled in America for three hundred.
