His own determination was never to encourage or vote for
the extension of the Unon-nor did he believe
sary to take the territory to be acquired in order

Upper California nor did Mexico want take it. The
money we were to pay was worth a thousand times
than the errtoy we got which according the best author
ty was hardly worth any thing.
