Order to open a new road from San Diego. Alférez José Velázquez or Sargto Mariano Carrillo to take a party & open a road from San Diego via a ranchería, leaving the camino real, through the cañada to the head of the arroyo del Encino (a paraje Velázquez had discovered ~4 lgs. from the old route) and the cañada de Todos Santos, rejoining the camino real near the 'sepultura encerrada' — saving 10–12 leagues. Orig. pp.360–361.
