Ignacio Vallejo → Argüello — report on the settler Francisco Ávila. — ⭐ Vivid vignette: *'¿De qué utilidad es Ávila aquí? Porque él no tiene yeguas, ni vacas, ni cabras, ni gallinas, ni camisa, ni calzones, ni zapatos, ni botas, ni qué comer en su casa. Para que este hombre vaya á su milpa, es preciso custodiarlo…'* — Vallejo keeps him under guard by day and in the stocks (*cepo*) by night, asks for 'dos pares de grillos' (two pairs of shackles). San José pueblo poverty & disorder in Ignacio Vallejo's own voice. → the pueblo papers, social history.
