Represent to Gov. Kearny that they were elected by the people of the dist. as a Junta for the better regulation of the same; the Alcalde has shown them two letters from the Gov. re a case in law between Cabral Castro & Antº Germán, wherein the Gov. decides the case 'taking hearsay for testimony'; John Burton the Alcalde, on reading the foregoing on the 3d, laid the letter before the Junta because he felt his right invaded; told the Junta 'if the rights of the Court were invaded by setting aside legal testimony & taking hearsay for the decision of cases, I was unwilling to serve any longer'
