'Sobre no querer trabajar los indios.' 'Que se le han presentado aquel dia los indios de la Ex.a Mision, diciéndole qe. si no se les daban vestidos no iban á las piscas, ni á trabajar en nada; y le echaron en cara qe. el ganaba $50 al mes de flojo, pues no hacia sino mirar los trabajos; y qe. si iban á piscar tomarian toda la cosecha pa. ellos. qe. pr. mas qe. hizo pa. aplacarlos no pudo.' [The ex-mission Indians came in a body: no clothing, no harvest work; they threw in his face that he earned $50 a month idling and only watched them work; if they picked they would keep the whole crop. He could not appease them.] A collective labour stoppage in the Indians' own words.
