Treaty of Lircay
The Treaty of Lircay was signed on 3 May 1814 on the banks of the Lircay river near Talca between the Chilean patriot government and the royalist commander Gabino Gaínza, with the British naval officer James Hillyar as mediator. It provided for the withdrawal of royalist troops and the recognition of Spanish sovereignty, while Chile kept self-government. Neither side honoured it, and the viceroy of Peru rejected it.
