Tomo X. ⭐ Complied with the order to supply 'al oficial que pasó para la Bodega' [= the officer sent to the Russian post at Bodega], but hopes such an order is the last: 'pues que no comprende porque todos los que vienen de la república en donde todo pagan, se figuran que en California se les ha de dar todo de balde y que los indios nacen para ser esclavos de ellos. Que todo se ha de conservar para poder fundar mas misiones.' [= a Zacatecan friar's blunt charge that Mexican newcomers treat California missions as free supply and its Indians as born slaves].
