Torrijos Herrera

On Thursday, Mario Lopez Herrera, the provincial minister of security for the district of Tucuman, was forced out of office.

Others apparently disappeared at a later day, for we are now aware that many to which Herrera refers cannot be found.

There is a manifest tendency in Herrera to turn Las Casas's qualified statements into absolute ones.

Herrera did not publish his results, which are slavishly chronological in their method, till half a century later (1601-15).

Herrera, so far as his record concerns Columbus, simply gives us what he takes from Las Casas.

Such is the story as the Historie tells it, and which has been adopted by Herrera and others.
