Comanches. About a month over 300 Comanches & their families came into Presidio to trade 3 or 400 Horses & Mules & have gone down between the Rio Grande & Nueces Mustang hunting.

The principal chief is named G samonica & the chief interpreter Santana.  Woll has its ?nders? not to make war upon them - they rob from Mexican in the ? & sell on lower part of river - game has been scarce in their country & they Eat Mustangs - Presidio 2 Lgs from River -  from here to Rio Grande 66 miles -
