Complaints of the mission fathers against the escolta soldiers. Verbatim: 'Dice que el Sarg.to José Ign.o Olivera le notifica de las quejas de los R.s P.s M[inis]tros de aquella Mis.n, y que en su consecuencia impuso á los soldados q.e espresa 15 dias de planton con 5 cueras, y que habiendo reincidido les manda suspender el castigo para que en todo disponga á su arbitrio'. Gloss: Sgt José Ignacio Olivera reported the friars' complaints; Goycoechea punished the soldiers he names with 15 days of plantón wearing five cueras, and on their relapse suspends the punishment for Fages to dispose at will. Mission unnamed here; the Oct 22 escolta letter (p.358) places Olivera at San Buenaventura.
