    1629 (Nov 4): Entire letter from Lima to Guancavelica (Huancavelica) endorsed "Virrey" at lower left, written by the secretary of Don Luis Jeronimo Cabrera, Conde de Chinchón, XIV Viceroy of Peru and signed at base; the placement of the "Virrey" suggests a method of Official franking by the Viceroy. An astonishingly early entire sent just 105 years after Pizarro's arrival in Peru and only 87 years after the Viceroyalty was created.
