On the exchange of cannon for those brought by the ship Aránzazu. Verbatim: 'se le hizo presente la necesidad, de mantener en cada uno de estos N. establecimientos, un pedrero, y q.e los cañones, que se han cambiado, son inútiles y bromosos, suplicandole se debuelban los de à quatro, mas comodos, y proprios para estos Presidios.' Gloss: California asks to keep a pedrero at each establishment and to get back the handier four-pounders, the swapped guns being useless and worm-eaten.
