Reports he left San Fernando 5 Feb and arrived Sta Barbara [the 7th; numeral unclear] with the division under his orders, well received; quotes verbatim: 'El desorden q.e generalm.te reina en la ciudad de los Angeles me obligo a disponer q.e el Tent.e Cl. Jose Castro se mantuviese, con una fuerza de treinta hombres en S.n Gabriel, donde debe permanecer hasta nueva orden, habiendo recibido ya las q.e bastan p.a hacer respetar las autoridades y mantener la tranquilidad.' And: 'Como por lo demas estos puntos se hallan pacificos he dispuesto, en obsequio de la Hac.a P.ca q.e vuelvan a Monterey los rifles q.e traje conmigo, y la demas tropa q.e vino de dho punto, quedandome con solo los civicos de esta municipalidad, con quienes creo seguro el gob.no.' Recommends keeping order 'con las medidas mas energicas.' The demobilization dispatch of the Feb 1837 southern campaign — sits between d66 and d67 (same campaign, pp.199-203 and 206-212).
