ABSTRACT
After the conferences on the boundary between the governor and the envoys from Almagro, Don Alonzo Enriquez, the alcalde Diego Nuñez de Mercado and their colleagues resolved to return to Chincha, to give an account of their mission. Having received permission from the Governor they set out, taking with them many letters from captains to the Adelantado begging him to agree with the Governor, for that there was no just cause of difference between them, and having been such close friends before, there was no reason why wars and dissensions should arise between them, to the detriment of the service of God our Lord and of His Majesty, while the kingdom would be ruined, and exhausted, and become depopulated.
