Spans n142-n145. 'Instrucciones á qe debe sujetarse el Admor. de la Mision', 6 articles. 1ª indios to attend prayers 'conforme se acostumbraba antes de la llamada secularizacion', the Ministro keeping 'amplias facultades pa castigar pr su propia autoridad á los alcaldes y demas indios'. 2ª 'Por culpas y faltas comunes no podrá castigar á ningun indio con mas de 25 azotes y se abstendrá de castigar de modo alguno á ningun neófito qe se haya quejado de su manejo al Gobierno pr mi conducto, pues á todo hombre, pr infeliz qe sea, le es permitido siquiera el consuelo de quejarse de los males qe padece.' 3ª looms to be put in order so 'los indios, y con particularidad las mujeres' have covering before winter. 5ª repair church roof/sacristía, peaña for the cemetery cross, two andas (adultos/párvulos). 6ª músico mayor Castor to teach young indios music; Castor's wife and the enfermera paid from the Padre's account for church sewing.

Savage adds the instructions given to the other ex-mission administrators were substantially identical.
