'Recibió su oficio y la carta de Francº Torres.' [= he received the Governor's oficio and the letter of Francisco Torres]. Francisco Torres was a leading figure of the Hijar-Padrés colony expelled in 1835, which makes this a dated trace of that correspondence passing through the Monterey alcaldía; the identification is inferred from date and name, not confirmed here.
