✎✓ VERIFIED vs scan n76 at full res (2026-07-08) — TWO catalog misreadings CORRECTED: verbatim = *'Ordena que con mucha reserva y maña averigüe si en la Costa hay ó ha habido barcos estrangeros, y le avise 'lo cierto como cierto y lo dudoso como dudoso;' valiéndose para ello de Indios de Rancherías colindantes. Recomienda la conveniencia de atraerse la amistad de algún Capitanejo gentil con regalos que se cargarán al fondo de gratificación.'* ✎ 'colindantes' (neighboring), NOT 'toleradas'; ✎ 'Capitanejo gentil' (one word, gentile petty-chief, line-split 'Capita-/nejo'), NOT 'capitán ó gentil'; the cierto/dudoso maxim is in MS quote marks. + 2nd doc: report the SF→New Mexico distance ('ríos, sierras, é indiada que hay de por medio'; P. Antonio Danti 'puede ilustrarle')
