✓ VERIFIED vs scan n373 (2026-07-06); ✎ scan-start corrected n372→n373 (n372 is the tail of Doc 411's Baja El-Encino/San-Francisco-Solano text — the old range wrongly overlapped it & mis-pointed the link). Header verbatim 'Sobre fundación de la Misión de la Concepción': Fages 'en oficio de 2 de Junio del año último informó… reconoció el Canal de Santa Bárbara… para situar la Misión de la Concepción… no halló paraje más á propósito… que el de Sta Rosa de la Gaviota' (10–12 leguas from the presidio); Rengel 'prevengo á Vmd disponga se proceda á fundarla' after re-examining the site, then request the 1,000-peso Reglamento *fomento*. (= the future La Purísima Concepción, formally founded 8 Dec 1787.)
