Note 4 — FISCAL’S REPORT ON SANGLEY LICENSES

Francisco de Toledo was viceroy of Peru from November 26, 1569 to September 28, 1581; he was a man of ability, but hard and cruel. He is principally known by his cruel persecution of the Incas and the native religion—putting to death the young and innocent Inca, Tupac Ameru, and many other nobles; and by the code which he issued for the government of the country, called Libro de Tasas (“Book of Rules”). See account of his government in Markham’s History of Peru, pp. 148–159.
