What happened to the missions of northern New Spain in the year 1767? It is well known that a very vigorous and successful system of missions was by that time 176 years old. Tapia had begun their full activity as early as 1591. River by river, tribe by tribe, the advance went northward. Like Kino, Pérez de Ribas was but a leader to guide the system that finally reached from the Cahitas to the Apaches. They all kept their records, and the missioners’ success was due in large part to their close ties and common methods in trying circumstances.
