Dep. State Papers, Benicia (Military), tomo LXIX–LXXVII · BANC MSS C-A 19, document 281

Verbatim heading: '829 = Nbre 16 = S. Juan. / Raimundo de la Torre al Comande (Solis)'. Verbatim text: 'Le da parte haber sorprendido al Alfz de artilla y artillos; todos estan presos; pasa con ellos al Pres.o Deja al Americano (quiza sea Gilbert) en la Misn pr estar enfermo y no poder montar.' Gloss: de la Torre reports that he has surprised the artillery alferez and his gunners, that all are prisoners, and that he is coming with them to the presidio; he leaves behind at the mission an American who is sick and cannot ride. The parenthesis 'quiza sea Gilbert' is Savage own conjecture, not in the original. [orig cite: autos; no p. cite written on the leaf]
