Within n decade lifter Cortex land ed on Mexican soil mid conquered ilia followers of Montezuma, the Spaniards had launched expeditions by sea and started exploration parties over thu mountains to liiid Unit region which two centuries before, according to tra dition, had supplied the Aztecs with great stores of gold anil silver when they passed through the bind In their tribal migration to the vale of Aim hiiuc. I'.y 1,":!0 Almluder. Chlrlno had proceeded up the coast as far as the mouth of the Yuqul river, and he was followed by De Vaea. wild brought back n report that gold mid silver could be plucked from thu I ground in unbelievable quantities. One, of De Vacu's followers was Sebastian, a mulatto who had 11 remarkable gift of Imagination. Among the place he "snw" were the Seven CI tie of CI bolu. ruled by King Tatarax, whose wonderful bejcweled robes dnr.r.lcd the eye us he worshiped each moral ag la his magnificent palace before 11 golden cross. Mermaids also figured In Se bastian's narrative as alluring niur vels of the Sonora coast. Among the Sonora mine about w hich romance and reality are strange ly mingled Is that of Sciior Almndn of Qulnteru. The owner Is said to have celebrated the marriage of hi fa vorite daughter by paneling the bridal chamber Willi silver, and pav ing the road from his home to the church with bars of the precious metal.

When sho finally reached the capital she would not rest content until the fortune bad been placed In the safekeeping of t lie Spanish viceroy. A few days later the widow disappeared, and the vast store of gold was appropriated by the gov ernment treasury and that treasury's custodian. An equally pathetic Rtory Is told of the I'lanehas de I'latn (Silver I'lates) mine, which, according to Jesuit He counts, was discovered by 11 Yaqul In dian during the first half of the eight eenth century. From 11 deep canyon the Jesuits are said to huva taken great globules of silver ore, weigh ins from 20 to 50 pounds. One mam moth nugget of pure silver, weighing n quarter of 11 ton. was dlscoverd. ami proved the undoing of Dot ti (lie priests and the Indians. This treasure roelc wus with great dilllculty loaded be tween two pack mules ami taken to the capital, where It was seized for the crown. After years of litigation tile authorities decided that not only this nugget, but all other ore from the canyon belonged to the state.
