«Indios - su castigo por faltas.» Criminal cause against «Silverio y Rosa, Indios Neofitos de la mis.n de S.n Luis Obispo»; the diocesan's provisor would have the culprit punished «como si realm.te gozará de la inmunidad por su natural condic.n de persona miserable, por su barbarie, ignorancia y buena fe.» Borica: «Creo firmemente qe si se verifica la pena ordinaria en el reo Silverio, causará tal pavor y espanto a los innumerables Gentiles qe habitan los Tulares... se atrasará infinito su conquista espiritual»; asks the viceroy to see him «como a racional de 2.a especie», the gentiles being «acostumbrados en su gentilidad á matarse sin escrupulo».
