*(Fages OUTGOING)* Instructions for whoever substitutes him in command during his absence: finish the Fábrica/waterworks (Casa Real, forge roof, plaza warehouse), keep the cattle irrigated & the slaughter (May–Jun); ⭐ when the *Nao de Filipinas* (Manila Galleon) arrives, post the guard on the beach to prevent illegal landing of merchandise — no one (Pasajero, soldier, Religioso, 'ni Vm. mismo') to trade; the SF presidio, the monthly SB mail, and guarding the Cañada del Río so the mail-soldier isn't lost. ⚠ Savage notes the document is incomplete (its complement not in the tomo; signed by Fages, undated, addressee unknown)
