Eustaquio Bedel went through there when
he led some Blacks to the fort on the orders
of said Commander, and the latter asked him what
news there was; to which the said Bedel
answered, that a patrol of militiamen
had told him that that night
they had found a Black knocking on the
door of another´s Hut, and that he had
defended himself with a knife that
he had in his hand, and that they found on him some
cartridges with powder and bullets in
tubes made of Reed in a bag, and that one of the
militiamen of said patrol was complaining that
he had stabbed at him a few times, and that
he would have hurt him if they had not restrained him
that this was all that Bedel said and
he responds----
