The following are the four classes that are the ethnology result of our present day Negro, Indian, Creole, etc, The Ab-original natives of the land mass called America held the first rank. They were the Asiatic people too; however, because of a royal decree ratified under the Emperor Charles V, the Moors/Asiatics were classified as Spaniards. Thus, the Spaniards became legally ranked as first inhabitants. The second rank was Creole. These were the descendants, of the early European colonists, who were disowned by the English aristocracy because they claimed to be free men, based upon the Magna Carta. The third rank was a Mulatto; this was a mixture or amalgamation of European and Asiatics. The Mulatto was then barred from producing offspring from any other stock other than European. This created a different group, not ranked, called Mestizo; the fourth and final rank was called Indian. This was the product of amalgamation between the Mestizo stock and the Moors, which produced the reddish brown shade.
