Santa Fe. March 27, 1810. 3 pages. Letter. Draft. Existence of a united settlement of comanches and caiguas near to the rio huerfano; a state of peace existing between the caiguas and cuampes; the sighting of five foreigners at the source of the rio de napeste, who claim to be otter-hunters, but who behave suspiciously. The governor is uneasy, and urges alertness and caution so as not to be caught unaware by possible development. (Lloyd Kendall) (1980)
