CONTENT NOTE ONLY: Borica prefers Arrillaga's second plan and quotes himself

Provincial Records, tomo V–VII · BANC MSS C-A 24, document 631

CONTENT NOTE ONLY: Borica prefers Arrillaga's second plan and quotes himself: «Soy de opinion qe por ahora solo se piense en recojer á Sta Catalina toda la gentilidad qe media desde la mision al Rio... Qe vean los Indios qe mejoran de suerte reducidos á sociedad... qe de unas rancherias á otras se entienda la voz de nuestro proceder humano con los neofitos.» Adds: troops enough to resist 2,000, «tantos supone el P. Garces qe pueden juntar las 5 principales naciones del Rio»; Fages says 1,500 Indians attacked his Real; recalls his 1796 proposal to split the gobierno in two with the new governor seated at Sta Catalina. [Duplicate of the n390 row — do NOT ingest twice.]
