Whilst this book was in press accounts were received of systematic ill-treatment, murder, and slavery of the natives in the Montaña of Cuzco and elsewhere, published in _El Comercio_ of Lima under date of June and July, 1912. These districts are by no means remote from centres of government. [13] The ignorance or hypocrisy of the Peruvian Legation in this connection was fully brought forward in _Truth_.
