Monterey customs administration: house-carpenter delays; then, seeing 'que todos los buques estrangeros se presentan en lastre, y solo traen de efectos, lo que mas bien causa risa, que ingresos á la Aduana,' and to silence critics, 'habilité de guardas registradores á todos los buques, á Marcos, á Eduardo y á Juan Copet, ofreciéndoles pr. sus registros escrupulosos, toda la parte que pr. ley está destinada al aprensor de un contrabando; con solo esto están contentos, y con tres pesos que pr. cada visita les doy, dándome ellos una buena chalupa. Así es que tengo bote y marineros guardas, con bastante economía de la Hacda.'
