Summary
Concerns letters from Lorca to viceroy giving notice of new job being undertaken. Junon complains about Jose Santana who is captain of Villa Escandon. Internship is requested to cover absences of Santana. Lorca is appointed governor of Nuevo Santander when Lasaga resigned. Lorca requests promotion to brigadier, claiming that his salary as governor isn't enough to support his lifestyle and family. Document is very repetitive and bears little information. (M.
