Another Attempt Is Made to
Find the Port of Monterey.
Portola Contemplates the Oc-
cupafion of brakes Bay or
San Francisco Bay in Case the
Port of Monterey Is Not
Found.
Danger that San Diego and the at
tempt to occupy Monterey would have
to be abandoned was removed by the
arrival of El Principe. This vessel
had been laden with supplies at San
Bias and dispatched to Monterey,
where Portola was supposed by the
authorities TO be established. But as
a result of an accident, which proved
to be good fortune Cor an interposi-
ton of Saint Joseph, she returned to
the port of San Diego, after having
passed 1T some distance. Preparations
were now made for a new attempt to
find the port of Monterey On the
10th of April El Principe weighed an
Ghor, directed by Perez and with
Father Sierra and Miguel Costanso on
board; and on the 18th Portola set out
by land with somewhat less than 80
persons in his party, which included
Pedro FACES and Father Crespi
The agreement made between Perez
and Portola, described in the letter
printed next below, shows that Por-
tola felt sure that the outer bay, below
Point Reyes and above the Golden
gate, was the San Francisco bay of
the early explorers.
As bearing upon the question of Por-
tola's possession or lack of indepen-
dence and initiative, 1t is interesting to
note that he contemplated occupying
brakes bay or the newly discovered
bay of San Francisco in case he failed
to find the port of Monterey, appar-
emily on his own responsibility assum-
ing that his excellency would not

~ populated the canal is, with its
permanent settlements and the
countless Heather who inhabit il,
and undeceived ourselves Iby learn
lngl that Monterrey does not exist
IN the country that we have trav-
ersed, all to the end that, with
greater knowledge, Your Excel
lency may determine what seems
best to you. Considering the do
cility which we have encountered
in the Heather, it is evident that
by land no obstacle is to be en-
countered. The only one that I
find is the certainty of suffering
the scurvy. whether by Sea or land.
although by land we have expert
enced that it disappears by merely
changing climate, while of those
who have taken it at sea, one who
has survived is rare. Indeed. up
10 this time fifty persons have been
buried in San Diego, among these
being thirteen of the 25 volunteers.
On my arrival at this Preside
or Mission of San Diego l asked
Tor report of the Provisions which
exist on board the San Carlos, in
GLIDING those which came for all
the Missions. This report l enclose
for Your EXcellency. In view of
this. ] have called a council in
order to determine what is best.
1t has seemed to me proper to
despatch the Captain [Rivera, to
Lower California; with a strong
detachment, for two reasons: first,
to diminish the number of ra-
lions Iherel; second, in order that
the necessary steps may be taken
for conducting the stock which are
In CALIFORNIA; TO this Mission, while
/ remain with the necessary Men.
These I have found to be 15 cuiras-
siers, with their Sergeant, for the
protection of the Mission, and the
Lieutenant Don Pedro FACES with
the twelve men of his troop.
We have agreed with the Com
mandant Of Marine that the latter
troop shall be held in readiness so
that If. perchance, the Vessels are
delayed. it may serve as crew for
the Packetboat San Carlos. under
his command, in case he finds it
desirable TO leave. This will never
be the case until we find our
selves IN extreme need. / shall
maintain myself in this Mission
until Your Excellency's reply
comes, reminding Your Excellency
that whatever decision you may
make it is necessary to replace the
detachment that has gone to Cali
fornia THAT is, Lower California;,
and, il possible. with more men.
And considering that this detach-
ment is now in California, If Your
EXcellency finds 1t convenient, you
may write to me, in order that a
detachment may be sent; seeing
that those who are there know the
Road. 1T is not clear what the
last clause modifies.l This is all
that occurs to me now as worthy
of Your EXcellency's attention.

Most Excellent Person of Your
Excellency the many years that he

greatest abundance of provisions

ate as to have no sickness, at the
same time / greatly regretted not
having sufficient troops to under
take my journey back to Monterrey.
But remembering that If / lost
such a precious opportunity 1t
would be difficult for the undertake
ing to succeed, and that it was
necessary to improve every mo-
ment, and feeling confident that
the work is Gods and that he is
bound to protect me, ] have de-
cided to march at the same time
that Ell Principe sets sail, with only
seven cuirassiers, which Is all that
! can take from this Escort, add
ing the twelve volunteers who are
here with their Lieutenant, Don
Pedro FACES, or as many as L can.
1 am encouraged to make this de-
cision by the benefits (fruto)
which I have derived from having
Explored the Country and learned
the mind OF the Heather; and I am
persuaded that IL / should fail to
do 1t, l should fail In my duty to

and in the gratitude which I owe
to my Conscience for having mer-
tied the favor of Your Excellencv.
l shall now set forth the agree
ment which we have made With
the Captain Don Juan Perez for
both Expeditions to set out. 1t is
as follows:
First, that he shall conform to
the instructions which His illus
triousness gave him with respect
to the latitude to which he is to
go, and that he shall reconnoiter.
in passing, the Port of San Fran
cisco. Having sounded this. he
shall follow the coast Somewhat
further down until he finds large
estuary which extends into the
land twelve or sixteen leagues.
which it appeared to all of us
might very well be a port, and at
suited to the establishment of a
Mission, and which Don Miguel
Costanso, who Is to Embark, Knows
very well. And. having explored
this he shall go in search of the
Port of Monterrey, which, although
the Land expedition has not found
it. have hopes the Seamen will
find. In case they do not find 1t,
he shall go to the Punta de Pinos.
which place has been chosen so
that If he arrives before the Land
Expedition he shall await us, and
If the Land Expedition arrives be-
fore him it shall do likewise. And
If, on account of the weather, he
should not be able to remain there.

Your Excellency, in order to be
able to fulfill your commands HE
evidently means, in order to get
new instructions as occasion may
arise]. which. without doubt would
be the surest way to success; but,
knowing that it is Your Excel
lency's intention that this great
work shall succeed, 1 do not stop
at difficulties, obstacles or dangers
On the contrary, ever since 1 left
CALIFORNIA; 1 have been resolved to
fulfill my commands or die in the
attempt.
This Mission has been moved to
the satisfaction of the Father
President. and is left with the Es-
cort of nine men, including the
Sergeant and not counting three or
four more individuals; and the sit
uation OF the Camp has been forth
fed very advantageously, so that
there is no fear In my mind that 1t
will not be safe, although 1t is my
intention that, when the Troops
which are to return from Califor-
MIA with the stock are restored,
this escort and that of Monterrey
shall be reinforced, and at the
same time, If it is not possible
sooner, to establish the Mission of
San Buena Ventura; and 1 will do
all that 1 can to complete the work
on it. to have maintained the
Guard which is appropriate to it,
and to conduct the Stock of both
new Missions.

the 10th. FL Principe is getting un-
der way. and I shall leave tomor-
