Summary
Garcia Ruiz incurred 450 peso debt to Rivera y Moncada of which officials say he still owes 350. Ruiz petitions Croix to reverse decision of Corvalan to pay remainder owed to Rivera's heirs. Croix supports Corvalan. Ruiz agrees to pay, but claims he only owes 15-1/2 pesos, submitting witnessed, sworn testimony of items given and payments made to Rivera. Many eye witnesses substantiate Ruiz' claims. Decision made by Croix that 350 pesos withheld from his salary be returned to him and that he pay remaining debt to heirs. (J. M. Johnson, September 1988)
