War-council death sentence of 'el indio Pomponio.' Diligencias to investigate the killing of soldado Manuel Varela; the Consejo de Guerra condemns the Indian Pomponio to death 'por varios crímenes que ha cometido.' Signed by a council: José de la Guerra y Noriega, Luis Antonio Argüello, José Ramírez, Santiago Argüello, Ignacio Vallejo, Carlos Antonio Carrillo, José Joaquín de la Torre, José Raimundo Estrada. ⚠️ *I'm inferring* this is the noted fugitive Pomponio; the standard account dates his execution to Sept 1824 — the 1821 date here is as Savage wrote it (flag the discrepancy; do not silently reconcile). Orig. pp.382–432.
