Sumario:As a tireless defensor of the indians that lived in the american soil, Father Antonio Ruiz Montoya, a missionary of the Jesus Company on South America, worked untiringly against the accions developed by the representatives of the metropoli's authorities. To claim against the injustices and avoid the colapse of the mission's work, he appealed to the spanish soberain so as to expose what was happening. The Memorials are the documents that mantein the form used at that time in order to be presented to the king, so that important issues might be considered for him and the Supreme Council of the Indias. The strength of Father Montoya's plume as his passionate delation, followed by his plea to them to find a remedy to the unfairness lived in Guairá touched the King of Spain, who ordered the analysis and study of the matter. From his text can be deduced not only the history of the events that prejudiced the coexistence of the guaireños, but also his proposals of action in order to solve the captivity situation that the indians suffered by the representatives of the Spanish Crown.
