“el Alf.z Calderon en unión del Gefe Político ha hecho una escrupulosa averiguación de la causa que motivó á los 13 soldados desertores de todos Santos” — the 13 declared their motive was “el deceo que tienen de estar Cerca del enemigo, para hostilizarlo, por que están Cansados de vivir en Cuartel, llenos de miseria”; on arrival they joined Calderón and are working for the cause, whence all believe “que el Sr Man.l Castro [= Manuel Castro, of Alta California] está vindicado de la Calumnia que se le levantó”, and the calumniator should be punished.
