*Misiones &c.*: reconnaissance (May–June) of the 5 Baja missions + the Real de Sta Ana — too poor to maintain their natives (except Todos Santos); failure to settle the Indians in pueblos per Gálvez's 1769 decree; no operarios; recommends a Padre Presidente 'separado del espíritu de facción, comercio y tráfico'; the Indians cannot be made 'vasallos útiles' — *closely parallels the 1779 version, Doc 148*
