CLOSING VERBATIM QUOTATION of the preceding letter, in the friar's own voice (Savage marks it with quotation marks): 'Antes yo he tolerado todo pr. bien de la paz, y mas pr. conocer su genio tan arrebatado, tan colérico y precipitado qe. tiene, qe. en nada se le ha de contradecir, so pena de caer en su eterna indignacion y desgracia... Si mis domésticos cometen algunas faltas, yo tengo cuidado de correjirlas; si estas fueren en policía, sana moral, u órden público, ya como faltas de otra esfera pertenecen á él como encargado ó á la autoridad competente.' NOT a separate document — the tail of the pp. 401-4 letter; rowed separately only because the quoted Indian-servant jurisdiction passage is substantive.
