“I can not omit to inform you of the disobedience of Master Jose Lacoste, such that the twenty-fifth of the present, I ordered a piragua with a man his Side, with the idea of anchoring so that I could deliver the three blacks that came from the house of Peytavin, intimating to him your order he stated to say that he did not have time, nor wish to anchor; such that I had to deliver them to Master Luis so that he could deliver them to Mr. Damour to finally that he send them to Mobile.
I	see myself at every instant that lacking of a canon I have no power to give completion to the orders that I have of my Superiors; such that, if I have to send Official correspondence withthe quickness that isrequired I can not do it as the Ships that have good wind even though called, do not respond and continue their heading, in this case, I hope that you will serve to send me an equiped [sic] canon and a Flag, for the events I have expounded.”
