NEW DOCUMENT. Verbatim heading: '+ 1807 = Octubre 15 = Soledad. / Gob.r al Virrey. Remision de cáñamo.' Text: 'Dice q.e se han embarcado con destino á apostadero de S.n Blas p.r C.ta de R.l H.da, las partidas de cáñamo siguientes:' then the table verbatim: 'En S.n Fran.co 50 @ 17 lb. / Sta Barbara 186 @ 6 / Monterrey 127 @ 14 / Angeles 133 @ 8 / Total 497 - @ - 20 - lb.' Closes: 'Que espera q.e año entrante sea mas abundante la cosecha; q.e en cultivo de lino no tiene esperazas.' [= hemp shipped to the San Blas naval station on Royal Treasury account, by producing district; a better crop hoped for next year; no hope for flax.] The arithmetic checks at 25 lb to the arroba (496 @ + 45 lb = 497 @ 20 lb), which confirms the four district figures were copied correctly.
