(Doctº en inglés) Per Gen. Vallejo, reports the Indians of the lake vicinity have been killing cattle & horses belonging to Salvador Vallejo, perhaps 2 or 3 per week for a year or more; the cattle killed for food & the horses by wandering tribes of Indians in revenge; the Indians near the settlements are very bad & corrupt, robbing horses at night & turning them loose so far off it is impossible they ever return; thinks it would produce a good effect to arrest & punish every Indian seen on horseback without a pass from his master
