'Sobre depredaciones de indios en San José. Falta de fuerza pública.' Full-text (Savage 'O'-marked). Reply (received 'con 13 dias de atrazo') to Alvarado's note of the 13th on a 'acontecim[ien]to lamentable'; blames the 'precario y falso sistema' of too few troops spread across many points — 'al cubrir uno se descubre otro' — producing 'la pérdida de la fuerza física y la moral con q[u]e s[iem]pre debe contar el Gob[iern]o,' so that towns, citizens and property 'no sean despreciados h[as]ta de los indios.' Reports he has issued orders to Capt. José de Jesús Vallejo, comte. of that frontier, 'p[ar]a arreglar una espedicion'
