Summary
The viceroy has directed Salcedo to an extract of news in the gazette (of Ciudad de Mexico ?), which refers to the departure of three foreigners and a Mexican for Santa Fee, after their abandonment of an attempted trip to N. Orleans. These individuals are supposedly on a mercantile expedition. Salcedo, suspicious, requests that the governor ynterino keep track of the four. There is word that they have been sending smoke signals. Salcedo asks that the Indians of the area be utilized for reporting on the activities and utterances of the four regarding the purpose of their arrival. (Lloyd Kendall) (1980)
