Troncoso commissioned to take up post as Segundo teniente to work out peace with Indians of Sonora and Nueva Vizcaya; he refuses, preferring to remain in Santa Fe with family; women referred to as his wife, daughter of Coronel de Ansa; Troncoso famed as tactful negotiator with Comanches; recommendation made that he be demoted to capitan de Milicias, with salary consequently too low to keep family fed; various letters dealing with officers' promotions; eventually agreement reached that he remain in Santa Fe as segunda teniente, and other officers take up post in Sonora and Nueva Vizcaya; very interesting documents.
