Summary
Records for investigation, trial and sentence of 3 Indians (1 woman, 2 men) accused and convicted for murder of one missionary and accused of another at mision Santo Tomas in Baja California. Detailed statements by witnesses and those accused included. Original sentence was death by hanging but since no hangman could be found, sentence was carried out by firing squad.
