Head: «Sobre fragat[a]s avistadas». «Que el 11 le dijeron los buzos haber visto dos fragatas q[u]e se metieron detras de Cerralvo, q[u]e el 14 se vieron dos botes q[u]e parecian ocuparse de la pesca de ballena... vió el 17 dos frag[ata]s en la Isla de S. Gabriel. Que la canoa la tiene en la Paz con órden de q[u]e la escondan á la prim[er]a noved[a]d.» Pearl-divers and posted lookouts report unidentified frigates behind Isla Cerralvo and off Isla San Gabriel and two apparent whaleboats; the canoa held at La Paz, to be hidden at the first alarm.
