I fixed various typos on this page, but I can't make out what this section is trying to say (4th paragraph):
only 100 of the original Spaniards and so of the natives returned. Vázquez was left in bankruptcy due to the large inversion [...]
This may mean "only 100 of the Spaniards and some of the natives", or it may mean "only 100 or so Spaniards and natives". As it stands, it is not a grammatically correct sentence. I also assume that in the other sentence, "inversion" is not the intended word, but I can't tell what the intended meaning is.
Edited by LordGroLet's just say and leave it at that.
