Provincial State Papers, tomo III–IV · BANC MSS C-A 2, document 63

A SECOND COPY of the SB/Channel Instruction — WITH A HISTORICAL PREAMBLE doc 45's copy lacks: opens with a retrospective of the conquest — the 1769 sea & land expeditions occupying S. Diego & Monterey ('asilo á sus vasallos que hacen la navegación de Filipinas… propagar la verdadera Religión en la inmensa Gentilidad'), the land party's 'imponderables… extremidades de miseria, enfermedades, hambre y desnudez,' killing 'una ú otra mula para comerse,' the Monterey garrison living months on 'yerbas, frutas y toda sabandija silvestre de la tierra,' a calamity repeated for more than three years — a founding-famine narrative in an official instruction. SPAN n87–n93 (Sav 86–91), pp.184–207: the preamble continues with ⭐⭐⭐ a strategic ethnography of the Channel doc 45 lacks — the 25-league coastal strip 'de quiebras y barrancas profundas' peopled by 'innumerables gentiles'; prior Spanish parties in Channel fights 'en todas, recibieron varios muertos' [Spanish combat deaths on the Channel]; 'las continuas incesantes guerras que se hacen entre sí las rancherías' [endemic inter-Chumash warfare]; NAMED ENEMY RANCHERÍAS — 'las rancherías contiguas de Mescaltitlán, Salvada[?] y otras, y las de S. Pedro y S. Pablo, que son declarados enemigos'; the north-end rancherías (the future La Purísima) 'de menos consideración.' Body NOT recopied — Savage: 'Lo que sigue, es idéntico á las disposiciones… desde el folio 35 hasta el 53' [= doc 45]. → military register (Channel combat-deaths datum), Chumash ethnography, the Indian-raiding dossier
