*Sobre cierta Representación* — reports on the settlers' petition to move the pueblo of San José out of flood-reach: found higher ground ¼-league off and told the *vecindario* to stake it, but they replied they'd only asked to place some little houses for refuge when floods threatened, not a total relocation; sees no problem with the water being a little farther. [cf. Doc 20, the underlying petition]
