Abstract
There were two purposes in the coming of the Spaniards to America. One was the desire for gain; the other the hope of making Christians of the natives. Unfortunately the two conflicted. The fierce desire for gold, that led to the inhuman treatment of the Indians, for a time rendered of no avail the efforts of the priests.
