Previously uncatalogued — recovered by the 2026-08-27 coverage audit

Superior Government State Papers, Benicia, tomo XIX–XXI · BANC MSS C-A 58, document 109

Previously uncatalogued — recovered by the 2026-08-27 coverage audit: the document lay inside the declared span of a grouped entry covering n89-n100, which had passed every completeness check while concealing it. Heading verbatim: '+ 1838. Mayo 30. Mejº. / Gorostiza. Ministro de Hacª. - / Decreto declarando abierto pª el comercio estrangº. al puerto de Tecoluta. p. 286.' [= Decree declaring the port of Tecoluta open to foreign commerce] Opens the port of Tecoluta to foreign commerce. Falls in the same 1838 Gorostiza customs sequence as the already-catalogued d76-d80 on n101, but has no record of its own.

The originals of these records burned in the 1906 San Francisco fire. What survives is Thomas Savage’s 1870s copy, and this page describes that copy.
