A. PREFACE. Most of the volumes relating to foreign archives, hitherto prepared by the Department of Historical Research in the Carnegie Institution of Washing- ton, have been summary surveys or inventories of the materials for American history, or the history of the United States, contained in the particular archives treated. The present volume belongs to a different class, and of that class it is the first to be issued by the Institution. Therefore some explanation of its relation to the general plans of the Department is appropriate. In the task of making more available to students of American history the vast stores of materials for that history which are contained in foreign archives, there are three natural stages or processes. First, there is the summary survey or inventory, in which large masses of papers are represented by brief and often general descriptions, without much effort to enter into details respecting individual volumes or papers. A second stage is reached when, a summary survey of the contents of an archive having been already supplied, a certain portion or subdivision of it is selected for fuller description. The type of book usually produced by this procedure is that of the calendar, in which each separate letter or other docu- ment receives an entry of a line or more, indicating its date, place of origin, author, recipient, title, or such details, with perhaps some brief statement of its contents. The third stage of procedure is to select a set or series of documents having a high value for some particular purpose of history, and to print them at full length. It is not usually possible, in practice, to draw hard-and-fast lines between the first and the second of these varieties of procedure or of resulting hand- book. Many books descriptive of archival materials partake of both varieties, and English-speaking scholars have never agreed on any consistent or precise use of terms to designate the different kinds of guides or repertories. There is a broad and general distinction between the survey and the catalogue, but circumstances cause and justify the varying and the mingling of the types. For instance, some series of documents, steadily produced, year after year, by the routine of public administration, may be so uniform in character that they can be sufficiently described in a few lines applicable to all, and that nothing can be gained by doing more, while elsewhere in the same archive, or even in the same subdivision, chance may have brought together a mass of papers so diverse in origin and so miscellaneous in character that nothing short of an itemized list can have any value for the investigator, or would be thought of by an intelligent compiler. iv Preface To an organized and endowed institution which approaches the task of exploiting foreign archives for purposes of American history, it is natural to begin with that process which is most fundamental, most extensive in scope, simplest, serviceable to the greatest number and variety of investigators. Therefore this Department of Historical Research undertook, first, to go the rounds of the great national archives of Europe, and of Canada and Mexico, sending qualified scholars to each to make summary surveys of what it contains of unprinted material for the history of America, or of the United States, and publishing the results in volumes the scale of which was roughly proportioned to the amount or importance of the material found in each repository. Thus, four large volumes, prepared by Professor Charles M. Andrews, Dr. Charles O. Paullin, Professor Frederic L. Paxson, and Dr. Frances G. Davenport, have exhibited to the American student, in brief but comprehensive survey, the manuscript treasures, for American history, of the archives of London. Two or three volumes on those of Paris are under preparation by Mr. Waldo G. Leland. Those of Germany have been treated, in a substantial volume, by Professor Marion D. Learned, those of Switzerland and Austria by Professor Albert B. Faust, those of Rome and other Italian capitals by Professor Carl R. Fish, those of Russia by Professor Frank A. Golder, those of Canada by Mr. David W. Parker, those of Mexico by Professor Herbert E. Bolton, those of Cuba by Mr. Luis M. Perez. A thorough examination of those of the Netherlands had been begun when the present great war opened ; and some preparations have been made for the examination of those of the Scandi- navian countries, Scotland, Ireland, and the West Indies. If Spain be added to this list, it will be seen that summary guides to American materials in at least the national or central archives have been published or undertaken in the case of nearly all those foreign countries whose history to any important extent touches that of North America, certainly of all those to which any parts of North America stood in a colonial relation, and which are therefore in an archival sense motherlands of its history. In the process of " first aid " we have in a dozen years nearly made the circuit, and have produced a series of volumes which, whatever the imperfections resulting from preparation in so short a period of time, have at any rate " served the present age " by making known to the existing generation of American historical scholars not less than a hundred thousand documents in foreign archives not hitherto known to their studies. It may fairly be thought appropriate and seasonable to turn now to the exploitation, on a larger scale and by a different method, of some outstanding portions of the mass. That for this fuller and minuter treatment, after some method falling under the second of the processes described above, choice should be made of some body of papers in the archives of Spain, is due to several reasons. In the first place, the Department's Guide to the Materials for the History of the United States in Spanish Archives (Washington, 1907), prepared by Pro- Preface v fessor William R. Shepherd in the earliest period of its operations, is the briefest of all its guides to foreign archives, a book of only 107 pages. Yet the three great Spanish archives which the book purports to cover — that of Simancas, the Archivo Historico Nacional at Madrid, and the Archives of the Indies at Seville — contain enormous quantities of valuable material for American history, certainly more than a million of documents, perhaps more than two millions, the natural product of colonial empire conducted upon a vast scale, with minute attention to detail, and by administrators trained to incessant writing. Colonial empires have sometimes won greater success with less use of the pen; but, whatever the practical results may have been, historical investigators will not quarrel with the Spanish official's ceaseless accumulation of papers. Their main thought will be one of gratulation and contentment, that the system has left infinite riches of material to the present- day student. To this vast mass of material, moreover, American interest has been strongly directed of late. Since 1898 American students have entered as never before upon the study of Spanish-American history, of the relations between Spain and the United States, and of the history of those parts of our present area — the Louisiana territory, old Florida, California, and the South- west, a good third of the whole — which once were ruled by Spain. Historical societies and institutions in the states involved, historical departments in their universities — like the Department of Archives and History in the State of Mississippi, or the historical department of the University of California — have interested themselves in the exploitation of Spanish archives and have interested others in the history to which they contribute. That third of the United States that was once under Spain is well awakened to interest in its own past. One might fairly feel confident that a volume describing in detail an important portion of these treasures would be put to good use. Moreover, not only was this department's Guide but a meagre " first aid ", but Spain her- self has provided little guidance to her archives, few such volumes, for instance, as those of the British Calendars of State Papers ; and the materials derived from those archives which the Argentine and other American govern- ments have occasionally published bear little relation to the history of the United States. Among the various subdivisions of the various Spanish archives, it appeared that the one containing the greatest amount of material interesting to historical students in the United States was, with little question, that section of the Archives of the Indies at Seville entitled " Papeles procedentes de la Isla de Cuba ". Accordingly, this section, or that portion of it relating to United States history, was selected for fuller treatment, and Mr. Roscoe R. Hill, qualified by several years' study of Spanish-American history and several years' residence in a Spanish-speaking country, was sent to Seville in January, 191 1, to carry out the undertaking. The first plan, framed before Mr. Hill vi Preface left America and when only very insufficient quantitative information respect- ing the " Papeles de Cuba " was available, looked toward the preparation of an itemized calendar of all the papers relating to the United States in that section ; but when it appeared, after examinations and estimates made upon the spot, that those papers numbered four or five hundred thousand, it was at once seen that such a proposal was entirely impracticable. No one could advocate the printing of fifty volumes of calendar of the " Papeles de Cuba " ; the present demands of scholarship do not warrant it. Instead, it was resolved that an ingenious plan devised by Mr. Hill should be followed, resulting in the present Descriptive Catalogue, which it is hoped conveys as much informa- tion regarding this great mass of papers from Cuba as can well be conveyed in five hundred pages. The volume is the product of two years and four months of work in the Archives of the Indies, on the part of Mr. Hill and three or four clerical assistants, from January, 191 1, to April, 1913, and of much labor on his part in America since that date. But it is not the sole product of those years and months in Seville ; students who may wish for more detailed knowledge of the contents of these legajos (bundles) of papers will be glad to know that, though the preparation and printing of a complete calendar was deemed impracticable, itemized lists of all the papers in 143 legajos selected as the most important, amounting to a brief calendar of some 58,000 documents, were prepared in manuscript, in duplicate, by Mr. Hill and his assistants in Seville, and are preserved in the office of the Department in Washington. There the two sets stand arranged in serial and chronological order respec- tively, and can be consulted with freedom by historical scholars. The reader is referred to Mr. Hill's introduction for accounts of the Archives of the Indies, of the " Papeles de Cuba " in particular, of their history, of the present work, of the calendar mentioned above, and of the series of photographs of important documents which increase still further the means for studying American history through these Cuban papers. In- deed, every user of the volume is earnestly requested first to read Mr. Hill's explanatory introduction, that he may use the volume with an intelligent notion as to what it purports to contain. The index to the volume has been prepared by Mr. David M. Matteson, of Cambridge, Massachusetts. The director of the Department begs leave to add his cordial thanks to those which Mr. Hill has expressed, to all those who have facilitated or assisted the preparation of the work. J. Franklin Jameson. August 2i, 1916. INTRODUCTION. The Archivo General de Indias (Archives of the Indies) 1 is one of the most important collections of materials for colonial history in existence. It comprises about 35,000 legajos (bundles), ranging in size from a few docu- ments or bound volumes to as many as 2000 documents each. They cover in general the whole Spanish colonial period, although the collection is far from 1 There is no work treating completely the Archivo de Indias. Numerous articles have appeared and some check-lists have been published, which serve to give anidea of the vastness and importance of the collection.

The Archivo occupies the Casa Lonja, a large rectangular building con- structed in the sixteenth century as a merchants' exchange, for those engaged in the India trade. The removal of the Casa de Contratacion to Cadiz and the break-up of the Spanish trade monopoly in the eighteenth century left the Lonja unoccupied. When the decision was made to found the Archivo de Indias, no more suitable building or location was available in Spain than the Casa Lonja in Seville. The Archivo de Indias owes its origin to a suggestion made by Juan Bautista Munoz, who was commissioned in 1777 to write a Historia General de Indias. 9 Munoz soon discovered the need of uniting the widely scattered documents relating to the history of America, and made the suggestion to the Marques de Sonora, at that time minister of the Indies, that they be gathered together in Seville. Accordingly Munoz was commissioned in 1781 by the king to select and prepare for shipment the documents in Simancas relating to America. Later he was empowered to investigate the papers of the Casa de Contratacion both in Seville and in Cadiz. Of his work of organization, which was largely completed by 1787, he has left an interesting report. 4 While the work of selecting the documents was in progress, the Lonja was remodelled to adapt it to archival uses. The papers in Simancas were inventoried and boxed in 1 784-1785, and in the latter year were removed to Seville, being the first group of documents to be deposited in the new centre. This consignment, the only one from Simancas, consisted of 253 boxes which started from Simancas on September 20 and 21, in twenty-four carts, and arrived in Seville on October 15, under the guard of two commissioners and an armed escort. 5 Since that date additions have been made to the Archivo de Indias from time to time. At present the Archivo consists of materials as indicated in the table on page ix. The division of the documents into the twelve sections listed in this table was made with a view to preserving the identity of the origin in each case. In general, within the sections the papers are arranged topographically and chronologically, although in some instances they are divided by subjects as 3 Cf.

No formalities are really necessary to secure permission to work in the Archivo de Indias. Presentation to the Director by some one already work- ing there or by the American consul is in good form, or a letter from the American ambassador at Madrid or the Spanish ambassador in Washington 8 Ordenanzas para el Archivo General de Indias (Madrid, en la Imprenta de la Viuda de Ibarra, 1790), reprinted in the Boletin del Institute de Estudios Americanistas de Sevilla, ano L, num. 3 (Sept., 1913), pp. 29-47. The Ordenanzas are signed by the king and Antonio Porlier. They consist of 94 articles and contain rules for the organization and indexing of the papers, indicate the officials and their duties, and set forth regula- tions for cleaning, repairs, inspection, copies, loans, and prevention of fires. T See Shepherd, Guide, pp. 55-95, passim. 8 These summaries are published under the title " Archivo General de Indias, Sevilla ; Clasificacion de sus Fondos", and appear in installments, ano III., nums. 8, 9-10, 11, 13, et seq. This list indicates the groups of legajos, and the number of legajos in, and inclusive dates of^ each gjroup. The lack of shelf -numbers makes the list of small value, other than in giving an indication of materials and their relative position in the manu- script inventories. 9 In the case of some sections there have been other accessions ; in such cases the dates here given are of the principal accession. See Boletin del Institute de Estudios Americanistas de Sevilla, ano I., num. 1 (Mar., 1913), pp. 36-37. x Introduction may be used as a means of introduction. Entry to the archives having been thus easily secured, a place is assigned to the investigator in the work-room, where he may carry on his studies unmolested. Since the whole of the Lonja has been turned over to the Archivo, numerous improvements have been made in the building, providing for more commodious working quarters than existed during and previous to the residence of the writer in Seville. In order to secure legajos for examination, it is necessary to fill out a papeleta de pedido (call slip) and present it to the official in charge. The legajo is brought to the desk of the investigator by an attendant. Before receiving another legajo the first must be returned to the attendant. One of the greatest difficulties that confronts the investigator in the Archivo de Indias is the fact that heretofore no record has been kept of previous inves- tigations. Neither is there in existence anything approaching a complete bibliography of the publications made of documents copied in the archives. These facts have resulted in much useless duplication of work by students. In order to obviate these difficulties and to provide a complete record of the various investigations carried on in the Archivo, a blank (cedula de resultado de investigation) has been devised to preserve a permanent record of the work of each investigator. The blank has spaces for date, name, and nation- ality of the investigator, subject of investigation, number of the legajo, title on legajo tag, copies made, object of work and use to be made of copies, and an extract of the subject matter. The following is the form of the blank : ARCHIVO GENERAL DE INDIAS. Estadistica. — Resumen de Buscas. — Investigacion. — Copias. Resultado: Sevilla de de iqi. . .

Introduction xi The above blank is filled out in duplicate ; one copy is placed in the legajo and the other is filed in the office of the Director of the Archivo. The blanks of the latter set are numbered consecutively in chronological order by quarters. They are also classified topographically by subject matter and by the nation- ality of the investigator. 10 PAPELES PROCEDENTES DE CUBA. Not the least important of the sections of the Archivo de Indias, and certainly the most valuable single collection deposited there relating to the history of the present area of the United States, is that denominated the " Papeles procedentes de la Isla de Cuba ". This collection comprises 2375 legajos and about a million and a quarter individual documents. In accord- ance with the customary procedure in Spanish archival practice, these papers derive their name from the fact that for a considerable portion of the nine- teenth century they formed a part of the Archivo General de Cuba at Havana, 11 and were removed thence to Seville. The decision to transfer this valuable mass of materials to Seville for deposit in the Archivo de Indias was first taken in 1883. The captain general was informed of this fact by a royal order of March 27, but no efforts were made to carry it out. The attention of the captain general was called to the failure to comply with the order by a second order dated January 8, 1884. 12 It was not until four years later, however, that the actual work of the transfer was begun. 13 In response to the desires of the government at Madrid as expressed in the royal order of April 19, 1888, Nemesio Cornejo de Villarroel, an archivist and lawyer of Madrid, who at the time was in Havana, was commissioned to prepare the documents for shipment and send them to Spain. Within the period from June 25, 1888, to June 25, 1889, thirteen shipments of documents, comprising 2350 legajos, were made from Havana. The last shipment arrived in Seville October 28, 1889. 14 The various shipments of the Papeles de Cuba to the Archivo de Indias were accompanied by check-lists, 13 which Sr. Cornejo made by taking the first entries from the earlier inventories ia existing in the Archivo General de 10 Luis Rubio y Moreno, "Archivo General de Indias: Movimiento de Fondos : In- vestigation y Catalogacion ", in Boletin del Centro de Estudios Americanistas de Sevilla, ano III., num. 9 y 10 (June, 1915), PP- 15-39- 11 L.

A study of the Papeles procedentes de Cuba shows that Havana was not the primary point of origin of many of the documents. Their organization reflects the Spanish archival practice which seeks to preserve the identity of the origin of the various groups of papers in any given centre. As a conse- quence the Papeles de Cuba are found to consist of 23 series, 22 of which were formed in Havana and have their own numeration. These series are now consolidated into one section of the Archivo de Indias and are renumbered Papeles de Cuba 1-2375. The following table shows the various series, their respective numerations, titles, primary origin, general content, and number of legajos containing materials for United States history : Series no.

The papers of the Luisiana series (legajos 488-778), which originated in the various divisions of the department of Real Hacienda of Louisiana, in general were moved to Havana from New Orleans in 1804. In October of that year two shipments of papers were made on the frigate Nuestra Senora de las Nieves. One of these consisted of fifteen boxes, containing 147 legajos of documents from the Contaduria of New Orleans, which were sent to the Tribunal Superior y Real Audiencia de Cuentas de Habana. 28 Generally these papers dated to 1798, though some few were as late as 1804. The other shipment comprised sixteen boxes of documents, dating to 1804, from the Administracion de Reales Rentas (Custom-house) of New Orleans, which were sent to the intendant of Havana. 27 These boxes of papers were received by Captain Juan Portas on October 4™ and delivered by him to the intendant of Havana, Rafael Gomez Rombaud, on November 13. 2 * In neither case did these shipments comprise the entire archive of the respective offices. 80 Also it should be noted that some of these documents are to be found in the Nueva Orleans and Florida Occidental series. The remain- ing treasury papers were removed ultimately to Pensacola. 81 The initiative for the transfer of the above-mentioned documents was taken by Juan Ventura Morales, acting intendant of Louisiana, and resulted in a very acrimonious dispute with the commissioner for the transfer of Louisiana, 28 Letter of Someruelos to J.

Introduction xvii the Marques de Casa Calvo, as to the respective jurisdictions of the two officials. Morales held that he was acting in conformity with the order of November 21, 1803, issued by the secretary of the treasury, Cayetano Soler." On the other hand, Casa Calvo, basing his claim on the royal order of Decem- ber 18, 1803,* 8 was insistent that all matters appertaining to the transfer of Louisiana, including also the disposition of the archives, were subject to his jurisdiction alone." The dispute waxed warm and lasted for a considerable time, but meanwhile the papers had gone on their way to Havana. The treasury papers left in New Orleans at this time were prepared for removal in 1805, upon the order of Morales. 30 Before their arrival at their destination these papers suffered many vicissitudes and were the cause of a lively dispute between J. V. Morales and Vizente Folch, the commandant of Pensacola. These documents were packed in twenty-one boxes and shipped on the schooner Maria M with a naval escort. They were consigned to Juan Fran- cisco Arniaud de Courville, treasurer of Pensacola, with instructions that they should not be touched by anyone. 87 At Pasa Christina the Maria and its escort were attacked by an English corsair, but escaped with little injury. 88 Folch knew the disputatious character of Morales, and seems to have determined to prevent if possible the latter's arrival in Pensacola. Accord- ingly, on September 30 Folch offered Mobile as a residence for the officials of the intendancy and the fort there as a depository for the archives, as being the " only defensible fortification which the Province has ". ao Morales pro- tested against this determination of Folch and insisted that Pensacola was the more suitable location for the intendancy and its archives. 40 Both officials "Draft of J.

Meanwhile Folch took matters into his own hands and ordered that the twenty-one boxes should be disembarked at Mobile. 41 This of course provoked a new protest from Morales. 43 Upon this occasion at least Morales seems to have had the approval of his superiors with respect to his dispute. The Marques de Someruelos, the captain general, ordered Folch to allow Morales to reside in Pensacola and keep the archives of the commandancy there, as it seemed to be a safe place for them. 43 In addition, Soler, the secretary of Hacienda, issued a royal order disapproving the action of Folch and ordering the removal of the papers to Pensacola. 44 Even to this high authority Folch made an evasive reply. He pointed out that the order had been issued under the misunderstanding that the documents had arrived in Pensacola and had been taken thence to Mobile, and insisted that he would leave the twenty-one boxes in Mobile. 48 The papers ultimately found their way to Pensacola. Morales, however, did not succeed in taking them with him, for he was already in Pensacola early in 1806,* 6 long before the above-mentioned resolution of Folch. Just when they were re- moved is not certain, but it is known that they arrived some time before the close of the administration of Mateo Gonzalez Manrique as commandant of Pensacola (1813-1815). 47 An echo of the final difficulties of Folch and Morales regarding the archives is found in a royal order of September 24, 1807, in which Folch is ordered to turn over to Morales, at once, such papers and expedientes relating to the department of Hacienda as properly belonged to the intendancy. 48 REMOVALS FROM PENSACOLA TO HAVANA. The papers belonging to the various offices in Pensacola, which either originated there or were removed thither, were taken to Havana at different times.

Introduction xix attacks which were being made upon him/ that something regarding his traitorous relations with Spain might leak out of the Spanish archives at Pensacola. He communicated his fears to Commandant Folch, who assured him that I believe that you are already well convinced that I have acted in a manner befitting a faithful servant of the honorable Spanish Monarchy and that I have fulfilled sincerely the duties which friendship imposes upon me. I have even done more, since I have sent to the Archives of Havana all that pertains to the previous (antigua) history (a) feeling sure that before the United States shall be in position to conquer that capital, you and I, Jefferson, Madi- son, with all the secretaries of the different departments, and even the Prophet Daniel (b) himself will have made many day's journeys on the voyage to the other world. 60 Just how many or what documents were transferred at this time is not known, as no inventory was discovered, and after the removal these were put in their rightful place in the Florida Occidental series, along with the other papers from the archive of the governor of Louisiana. In the early morning of November 8, 1811, a fire occurred in the house of Juan Francisco Arniaud de Courville, treasurer at Pensacola, which destroyed the papers of that office." This created what is perhaps the most extensive lacuna in the Papeles de Cuba. For purposes of auditing, documents were sent by the treasury officials of Louisiana and West Florida to the Tribunal de Cuentas and the intendant of Havana, at various times. Sufficient data to give a list of such transmissions are not available. Such a shipment was made on July 12, 1812, when 36 legajos and a number of books, comprising accounts of the treasury of Louisi- 48 Henry Adams, History of the United States, III. 273; Cox, "General Wilkinson and his Later Intrigues with the Spaniards", in American Historical Review, XIX. 794-812. 50 Certified copy of an undated letter of Folch to Wilkinson, enclosure no. 5 of Folch to Someruelos, rsda. no. 130, Jan. 26, 1809, legajo 1566.

Several transfers of papers relating to Louisiana and West Florida took place in 1818. In February of that year, J. V. Morales deposited in the intendancy of Havana certain important documents, relating especially to his conflicts with other officials, which he had retained in his possession after the close of his administration as acting intendant of West Florida." Pre- sumably on account of the disturbed conditions in Florida, in May, 1818, the archives of San Marcos de Apalache were deposited in the secretariat of the commandant of Pensacola. 56 The transfer of the major portion of the documents from Pensacola to Havana took place in the years 1818-1819. In the former year General Andrew Jackson seized Pensacola, and the fifth of the proposals of Comman- dant Jose Masot dealt with the subject of the transfer of the archives to Havana, in the following terms : A competent number of vessels shall be furnished for embarking personal effects, papers, and other property belonging to the commandant, officers, and others in the royal employ, and particularly the papers of the secretary's office of the government existing in Pensacola, those of the department of royal finance, and of the civil and military employs. These papers shall not be subjected to any inspection or recognizance under the pledge of their con- taining nothing foreign to the functions of the said persons. Approved, — and estimate of the necessary transportation to be furnished agreeably to established usage. 56 On the following day, May 29, in a proclamation to the citizens, General Jackson stated that " Col. King will take possession of the archeyes (sic) of the province and appoint some confidential individual to preserve them. It is all important that the records of titles and property should be carefully secured." 5T "See legajo 591. 63 " Nota de los papeles de la Secretaria de la Intenda." .... by Francisco Gutierrez de Arroyo, Feb. 14, 1817, legajo 557.

Introduction xxi In accordance with this arrangement at least two shipments of papers were made. When Masot departed for Havana on June 22 on the schooner Peggy, he took with him seventeen boxes of papers from the offices of the comman- dancy and of the treasury. The Peggy encountered extremely bad weather and was compelled to put in at Puerto de Sisal (Campeche)™ On August 24, Masot started from Campeche with the schooner Peggy and the sloop Washington. Calms and contrary winds were encountered and the vessels became separated. On September 8, the Peggy, which carried Masot and the papers, was attacked and captured by the corsair General Umber (Humbert), under the command of Captain Francisco Ruperto of Buenos Aires. The vessel was sacked, the boxes of documents were broken open, and Masot claimed that many of the papers were thrown into the water. 69 The Peggy was forced to return to Campeche, where it was found that she was incapable of continuing the voyage. 60 The boxes of papers were deposited for safe-keeping in the custom-house at Campeche, and it was pointed out that, on account of the dangers of naviga- tion, it would be advisable for a war vessel to be sent to transfer the documents to Havana. 61 Following out this suggestion, Captain General Cienfuegos dispatched his Majesty's schooner the Galga to secure the papers, on January 13, 1819, 62 and the seventeen boxes were again embarked thereon, January 24. 63 A few days later, they were in Havana. In a letter to J. G. Forbes, Nicolas Mahy, captain general of Cuba, stated that " in the year 1819, there were sent to Havana from West Florida various boxes of papers of the archives of that province, in disorder and without indexes ". M This condition of things can easily be accounted for by the haste in packing and the vicissitudes which the papers suffered during the passage. The second transfer of papers in conformity with the agreement of Jackson and Masot took place in August, 1818. On the 21st of that month, fifteen boxes and a trunk of documents were embarked on the American schooner "Letter of Masot to Cienfuegos, July 31, 1818, legajo 1877. 69 This statement of Masot respecting the loss of papers seems to be an exaggeration, as the seventeen boxes were still present after the attack, and the examination of the Papeles de Cuba has revealed no important lacuna ascribable to this occasion. J. G. Forbes, however, in a letter to J. Q. Adams, dated May 5, 1821, reported that the Spanish officials in Havana had informed him " that about ten boxes containing the records of grants of land in West Florida were taken by an insurgent privateer out of the vessel in which Governor Masot was a passenger from Pensacola ". {American State Papers, Foreign Relations, IV. 743 ; Perez, Guide to Cuban Archives, p. 76.) This statement, which is evidently false, was made in an effort to put an end to the persistence of Forbes in his endeavor to secure documents from the archives in Havana. 60 Letter of Masot to Cienfuegos, Sept. 21, 1818, legajo 1877.

M Despite this provision, it was many years before any documents were obtained from among the West Florida papers which were in Havana at the time of the cession. Repeated efforts on the part of the United States commissioner, 69 the protests of the Secretary of State to the Spanish minister, and the message of President Monroe of December 3, 1821, complaining of the failure to transfer the docu- ments, 70 failed to elicit any other reply than that the papers in question had been lost in transit. Some investigation, however, of the Florida papers was made by the Spanish officials at this time. 71 As a matter of fact Spain was not desirous that anyone from the United States should examine the Louisiana-West Florida documents. The Spanish consul at New Orleans, while recommending an individual of that city who desired to search for land titles, advised the officials at Havana that all pos- sible hindrances should be placed in his way, hinting that things might be brought to light which would cause a decidedly unpleasant feeling on the part of the United States. 72 An investigation of the documents which were then in Havana reveals only too well the mass of material which Spain desired should not be known to the United States. Finally, however, in 1835, N. P. Trist was allowed to select, under what restrictions it is not known, certain papers which were delivered to him and which he in turn sent to Washington. A portion of these documents is now in the Library of Congress. 73 66 Letter of Caso y Luengo to Cienfuegos, Aug. 21, 1818, legajo 1876.

Introduction xxiii FLORIDA ORIENTAL PAPERS. As to the archives of East Florida, they remained in St. Augustine up to the time of the transfer to the United States, 74 except such papers of the treasury department as were transmitted to the intendancy and Tribunal de Cuentas in Havana, from time to time, according to the administrative pro- cedure. 75 Immediately after the transfer of Florida to the United States, the treasury documents were removed to Havana. 78 The archive of the office of the governor of East Florida was turned over in its entirety to the United States government, and consequently no papers from that office were found among the Papeles de Cuba. This archive was placed in charge of the United States Land Office and suffered many years of neglect. Finally in 1905 these papers were discovered by the Librarian of Congress, and arrangements were made to have them deposited in the Library of Congress, where they are now to be found. 7 ' "Draft of captain general to J.

"These papers with those transmitted previously are largely found in the Florida Oriental series, see pp. xii, xiii, above. " The following account of these papers is found in the Report of the Librarian of Congress for 1905, pp. 49-50 : " In my report for 1904 I described the status of the Spanish papers sent to the Library from New Mexico. Learning of a quantity of similar records in the office of the United States surveyor general in Tallahassee, Fla., the Department of the Interior was asked if there were any obstacles to depositing them in the Library for arrangement and safe keeping. The Department not only accepted the suggestion, but further stated that it would be of public advantage if the deposit were made a permanent one, providing always that no papers relating to land titles should be so retained. Under this condition the papers were sent to the Library, and the permanent deposit will permit the institution to treat it in the same manner as its other collections are treated before they are made available for historical ends. The task of arranging, repairing, mounting, indexing, and binding will be undertaken in due season. The papers number 62,224 pieces, with some volumes bound under the Spanish rule. The number of papers in the volumes can hardly; be determined as they now are, as the polilla busily bored through and through an entire volume, and even the parch- ment covers, until a sheet looks like a bit of lace work. The damage thus done is in some cases irreparable, and forcibly illustrates the risks and dangers attending the care and preservation of manuscripts in semi-tropical or tropical climates where a rainy season and heat favor the development of these destructive pests. " The nature of this collection of Spanish documents may be seen from the following selected list, taken from the labels of the bundles, of which there were 372 in all: 1. Correspondence with British authorities. 2. Councils of war, royal regulations and orders, etc. 3. Documents of the delivery of East Florida to the United States. 4. Embargo and revolution of 1795. 5. Indian presents. 6. Louisiana, Pensacola, Apalache, and Indians. 7. Memorials and concessions. 8. Negro titles, runaways, etc. 9. Oaths of allegiance. 10. Plans of fortifications and public buildings. 11. Proclamations, edicts, etc. 12. Secret correspondence of captain general [governor], and a large quantity of the correspondence of the captain general [governor] with the home govern- ment, the viceroy of Mexico, and his subordinate officers." xxiv Introduction PAPELES DE CUBA IN THE ARCHIVO DE INDIAS. Upon arrival in Seville, the Papeles de Cuba were placed on boxes in one of the galleries of the second floor of the Lonja. Soon it was discovered that they were infested with polilla (Calymmaderus oblongus, Gorham), and they were considered a menace to the other papers of the Archivo. They were hurriedly removed to the outer corridor and given a treatment with benzine. Then they were stored in a room on the first floor, where they remained much neglected for two decades. Since the remodelling of the Lonja in 191 3, a more suitable place has been provided for this collection. It has been stated that the documents of this section of the Archivo " are now dropping slowly to pieces, the prey of moths and mildew "." An extended examination fails to confirm this conclusion. As for the destructive tropical insects, let it be said that the benzine treatment combined with the climate has eradicated them. Among a thousand legajos handled, there were only eight which were completely useless and less than a score which were damaged to any great extent. No live polilla or evidences of recent activity were noted. Further, Dr. Giovanni Bolle, of the Agricultural Experiment Station at Gorz, Austria, a specialist in insects injurious to books, was unable during his visit to the Archivo in 191 1 to get any live specimens. There are some few volumes and documents which are badly damaged from having the paper eaten by ink or from rough handling. It is safe, however, to say that very few documents have been lost from this collection since its removal to Seville. Further, there is no reason why many should be de- stroyed in the future, as the Archivo de Indias possesses excellent climatic conditions, and danger from fire or other damage is practically absent. CARNEGIE INSTITUTION MISSION TO SEVILLE. During the long period of neglect, sufficient work was done among the Papeles de Cuba to show their great importance.™ In view of the value of these papers, the writer was sent to Seville on a mission for the Carnegie Institution of Washington to investigate and report on them. The mission resulted in a residence of over two years in Seville, January, 191 1, to March, 1 91 3, inclusive, during which his attention was given exclusively to this collection. The original plan of the mission provided for the making of a calendar of the more important documents of the Papeles de Cuba relating to the history of the United States. Upon undertaking this task its impracticability was soon revealed. The great mass of legajos, the extraordinary number of documents in each, the impossibility of determining which were the most 78 Shepherd, Guide to Spanish Archives, p. yy. "This work was done mainly by Jose Gonzalez Verger, assistant chief of the Archivo, who selected at random many documents relating to Mississippi and Louisiana, and by Professor W. R. Shepherd, who was especially interested in papers relating to Wilkinson. See p. xxvi, below. Introduction xxv valuable, and the uncertainty as to the value of the Havana index and check- list, were the factors that brought about a change in the plan of work. To have continued on the original plan would have resulted in the calendaring of only from twenty-five to fifty legajos, and there would have been no assurance that the most important papers had been made available to students. After careful consideration the plan of the present volume was worked out. The result of the work is this Descriptive Catalogue of the Papeles de Cuba, which is intended to serve as an introduction to this valuable mass of records. ORGANIZATION OF THE PAPERS. The Papeles de Cuba received their present organization in 1856-1857, when they were prepared for transfer to the newly formed Archivo General de Cuba. 80 At this time and in 1876, indexes " of these documents were made, which are now in the Archivo Nacional de Cuba. The first, begun in 1856 and completed in 1868-1869, is composed of twenty-one separate inventories, num- bered from 1 to 21, each corresponding to an administration of the captains general from 1765 to 1840, together with inventories of the papers relating to Cartagena de Indias and Nuevo Reino de Granada. This index covers the papers in the Capitanes Generales series 82 (legajos 1049-2264), Cartagena de Indias (legajos 707-738), and Nuevo Reino de Granada (legajos 739-757). This index was supplanted by the index of 1876, which consists of a bound volume, entitled " Archivo General de la Isla de Cuba — Indice 2 ". It has 340 pages and contains the description of 1497 legajos of the Papeles de Cuba. It covers the following series: Capitanes Generales (legajos 1049-2264), Florida Occidental (legajos 1-227), 63 legajos from series nos. 6 to 11 (lega- jos 707-915), and Castillo del Morro (legajos 916-920). M The index of 1876 was very carefully made, and with one exception it corresponds exactly to the legajos described. This exception to its exactness is in the case of the Florida Occidental series (legajos 1-227), and is not the fault of the index or its maker, but is due to the later disturbance of some of the papers or possibly to the use of an older index made before the papers were disorganized. It should be added that in general the entries in the case of the Florida Occi- dental series are exact, the misplacement being of parts of the legajos only. The entries of this index have been used as headings for the descriptions in the Descriptive Catalogue." 80 This archive was established and organized in conformity with a royal order of Oct. 31, 1857. See Llaverias, Historia de los Archivos de Cuba, pp. 96-99, which gives an account of the establishment and reprints the order. 81 There are many other earlier indexes and inventories of portions of this collection. Except for historical purposes these indexes are of little value, as the documents have been reorganized since they were made. A list of these indexes and inventories is, however, appended to this introduction. 83 See table, p. xiii, above. 83 Letter of L. M. Perez to J. F. Jameson, Dec. 20, ipio. "It is interesting to note that Llaverias in his Htstoria de los Archivos de Cuba makes no mention of either of these indexes of the Papeles de Cuba. xxvi In trodnction When the documents were removed to Spain in 1888-1889, neither of these indexes was sent with them, but instead they were accompanied by the check- lists made by Sr. Cornejo. 55 The manner in which these check-lists were made resulted in an indefiniteness which cast a suspicion upon their value. Moreover, on account of their incompleteness, they did not afford a sufficient guide to the papers, nor in the nature of the case was the check-list or either of the Havana indexes adequate for the portion of the papers relating to the United States. As may be seen from the table given on pages xii, xiii, above, the Papeles de Cuba are divided into various series based on topography. Within these series a chronological arrangement combined with classification by officials or official positions is used. The plan is satisfactory where strictly adhered to, as it is in most cases. The documents relating to the United States are duplicated in different forms in many instances, because the archives of the provinces of Louisiana and West Florida are here combined with those of the captaincy general of Cuba, which had supervisor}- power over these provinces. 86 The Papeles de Cuba have suffered little modification in arrangement since their removal to Seville. Owing to the fact that the documents were con- sidered to be in complete disorder,* 7 some 5300 individual documents were removed from their legajos by Sr. Gonzalez Verger and Professor Shepherd. About 500 of these documents have since been returned to their proper legajos ; the remainder form legajos 2351 to 2375 inclusive. Those in legajos 2351 to 2356 have been copied for the Department of Archives and History, Jackson, Mississippi, and are listed in Robertson, List of Documents in Spanish Archives relating to the History of the United States. 88 Many of the papers of legajos 2357-2375 were removed for this same purpose, but the commission was never carried out. The remaining documents of these latter legajos were copied for Mr. Louis Houck of St. Louis w and Professor W. R. Shepherd. These documents are now arranged in chronological order within the several legajos, and with the exception of the last three legajos have been calendared for the Carnegie Institution of Washington. The impression that these papers were in complete disorder might have been gained from an inspection of the Florida Occidental series (legajos 1-227). As a matter of fact, however, the greater portion of the legajos relating to the United States are in good order. Of the 954 legajos examined, 81 See p. xi, above. m Cf., for example, legajo 155 with legajos 1552-1556, 1572. 87 Cf. Shepherd, Guide to Spanish Archives, p. 77. 88 Washington, Carnegie Institution, 1910, pp. xv, 368. More than a thousand docu- ments from among the Papeles de Cuba are among those listed in that volume. 89 Many of those copied for Mr. Houck appear in translation in his Spanish Regime in Missouri (Chicago, 1909, 2 vols.). Others are now in the possession of the Missouri Historical Society at St. Louis. Introduction xxvii only 251 are in a disordered condition, and of these 198 belong to the Florida Occidental series. 00 It appears evident that the Papeles de Cuba were all in order during some period of their deposit in Havana. Two hypotheses are offered to explain the present disorder of part of the legajos. First, that they were all placed in order at the time of the reorganization of the archives in 1856 and that the disorder is due to careless handling between that time and their removal to Spain, for it is certain that the legajos now disordered were in about their present condition when they arrived in Seville. Secondly, that in 1856 the legajos were left as found and that the disorder was the result of careless handling or investigation during the period when the United States was making demands for the transfer of certain documents from the collection. With time and patience even the most disordered of the legajos of the collec- tion could be rearranged on the basis of the Havana classification. This would to some extent vitiate the work of this report, but if the disordered legajos could ever be put in order, it would, of course, be a great improve- ment. The likelihood of such a task ever being undertaken, however, is very remote. ARRANGEMENT OF THE PAPERS. The Papeles de Cuba are arranged in legajos (bundles), either in the size of the Spanish pliego (21.5 by 31.5 cm.), of the Spanish cuartillo (16 by 21.5 cm.), or of what seems to be an English or American paper (18.5 by 23 cm.). The height of the legajo varies with the number of documents. In the pliego size (indicated in the descriptions by the letter A) are found the treasury documents, some of the correspondence in the Florida Occidental series, and some other documents. In the cuartillo size (indicated by the letter B) are the drafts of the governors of Louisiana and most of the corre- spondence of the local officials of Louisiana and the Floridas. Most of the original letters in the Capitanes Generales series are in pliego size folded once 90 The following table shows the total present number of legajos containing materials relating to the United States and the number of disordered legajos in each series: Numbers of Total present legajos relating to United States.

The third size (indi- cated by the letter C) includes the correspondence in French and English by the local officials of Louisiana and others, which is found in a group of legajos in the Florida Occidental series, entitled " Correspondencia Nacional y Extrangera ". The legajos are unwrapped, with the exception of a few hundred of the Capitanes Generales series which are in sheep cases. The only protection is a piece of cardboard, at the top and bottom of the legajo, which often is not as large as the papers. This is insufficient to protect against rough usage, dust, and dirt. Let it be said, however, that the legajos now receive careful hand- ling from the employees of the archive. COMPLETENESS OF THE COLLECTION. Just how many documents have been lost from the Papeles de Cuba during the past century, it is hard to say. It is sufficiently evident, however, that very few have disappeared from the documents dating from about 1760. Documents before that date are rare, and the legajos relating to the United States covering periods before that time are mostly useless. Many series of documents relating to Louisiana and the Floridas are complete. Among these may be mentioned treasury reports, correspondence of the governors and intendants of Louisiana, etc. The archive of the cap- taincy general is intact, as is shown by the various numbered series of corre- spondence of that office with the governors of Louisiana and East Florida and the commandants of Pensacola. 91 91 The following table gives a list of some of the important complete series of docu- ments from the various series of the Papeles de Cuba : Numbers of Number of the legajos.

Introduction xxix RESULTS OF THE MISSION. In all, 928 original legajos, containing materials relating to the United States, were found and examined. Only one legajo (561) relating to the United States was missing. The great reliability of the Havana index and the examination of many legajos, not relating to the United States, brings the conclusion that all the United States material in the Papeles de Cuba was located and described. Eight legajos M were found to be completely useless, and some others partially damaged. 08 On account of the extraordinary size of many of the legajos, the writer was asked by the Chief of the Archive to divide them into two or more parts, 04 so that the present number of legajos relating to the United States is 954, of which eight are useless and one is missing, leaving a net total of 945. Sixty-five of these legajos are composed entirely of books, and ninety contain one or two volumes, in addition to the documents. There is an estimated total of 472,743 documents and 461 account and letter books in the 945 legajos. This gives an average of 554 documents per legajo, including the 65 containing only books, or an average of 500 docu- ments, if the latter are included and each book is counted as a single document. The number of separate documents would be materially increased if the dupli- cates occurring in the same legajo were counted, which was not done in the Capitanes Generales series and in the treasury documents. A small deduction should also be made for certain legajos where only a portion of the documents relates to the United States. 95 In giving the number of documents in the descriptions, the exact number is indicated in the case of the 143 listed legajos (see below), those calendared in this work, and many containing treasury papers. In the other legajos the estimate was based on the character of the papers and the height of the legajo, and for this reason the height is given in each case as well as the estimated number of documents. CHARACTER OF THE DESCRIPTIONS. The descriptions of the legajos given in this volume fall into two general classes, each of which in turn comprises two divisions. The first class includes all those legajos for which only general descriptions as to scope and con- tent are given. In this class the descriptions are arranged uniformly in this order : ( 1 ) the heading as given in the Havana index, with corrected dates in brackets, (2) a statement of the period covered by the legajo and its arrangement and order, (3) a list of the correspondents, and (4) an indica- M Legajos 445, 446, 450, 452, 453, 454, 455, 461, all dated prior to 1760. 83 These are noted in the descriptions. M The parts are numbered as follows, e. g., 154-1, 154-2, 154-3; and are separately described. "These legajos occur entirely in the Capitanes Generales series, e. g., legajos 1309, 1368, 1408, 1418, 1511, etc. xxx Introduction tion of the subjects treated and important documents found in the legajo. The first division of this class comprises the legajos of correspondence, mostly in disorder, between the governors of Louisiana and their subordinates (legajos 1-227), as well as other similar legajos throughout the collection. The second division consists of the well-ordered legajos of the Capitanes Generales series and others, in which the letters are numbered ; many of these legajos have been listed. 96 The second class includes the legajos for which the descriptions are not merely general, but are complete in the form of an actual or practical calendar. The definitive work of description is done in this volume for this class, making the documents readily available to the historical investigator. In general the descriptions of these legajos consist of: (i) the Havana heading, (2) a statement of the scope and arrangement of the legajo, and (3) an indication, in form of calendar or otherwise, of the content. The first division of this class includes the accounts of the treasuries, intendancies, and reales alma- cenes, and the listas de revista and other similar and well-ordered documents. The second division is composed of expedientes, letter and account books, and indexes. This latter division is fully calendared in all cases. The following table shows the number of legajos in the various classes indicated above : Number of legajos. Class I. Class II. General description 532 Complete description 413 1.

In general the subject matter for these slips was obtained by copying the summary or abstract of the document, which was usually written on the margin or the carpeta (folder). As it was required by law that only one subject be treated in a letter, 97 and as the abstracts were to facilitate the labor of the recipient of the letters, they are found to be exact and to give a satisfactory idea of the document. In some cases, however, where the abstracts were not present, the clerks, after proper training, were permitted to make summaries. In all, "For example, legajos 1561-1572. 97 " Real orden Para que en las Provincias de la Nueva Espafia se observe la Ley que se cita, para que no se mezclen varios negocios, en una misma representacion, si no que se escriva con separacion sobre cada uno ", dated at Buen Retiro, Aug. 21, 1748, legajo 2263. Introduction xxxi about 57,000 documents have been listed in this form. The 143 legajos that have been calendared are indicated by the word " Listed " at the end of the description. These slips serve as a complete guide to, and show the value of, the documents of this group of legajos. A test made indicates that about 70 per cent, of the entries of documents would be suitable for inclusion in a pub- lished calendar, if such should ever be made from the slips. Meanwhile, whatever information they contain is at the service of historical investigators, on application to the Director of the Department of Historical Research named above. In addition to the work of describing and calendaring, a series of 233 photographs was made. These photographs include documents of especial interest illustrative of the character of the papers and present a miscellaneous series of autographs of the various Spanish officials connected with the administration of Louisiana and the Floridas. 68 CONTENT OF THE PAPELES DE CUBA. The portion of the Papeles de Cuba which relates to the United States contains documents treating the various phases of the Spanish administration in Louisiana and the Floridas and covering in general the period from 1761 to 1821, although there are some few documents both before and after these dates. Among the subjects treated are the political history of the region, both internal and external, including especially the relations with the United States and the Indian problem, finances, military, social and religious matters, immi- gration, and the super-imposition of the Spanish system of administration upon the French system in Louisiana. The Florida Occidental series (legajos 1-227) contains correspondence of the governors of Louisiana with their subordinates, with the captains general of Cuba, the ministers of the Indies, the viceroys of New Spain, the bishops of Louisiana, and the consuls of Spain in the United States ; correspondence of the commandants of Pensacola, intendants of Louisiana, and commandants of Mobile ; expedientes in civil, criminal, and military cases ; reales cedulas and despachos; and indexes and letter-books. The Florida Occidental series (legajos 228-282) comprises correspondence of the intendants of Louisiana and West Florida ; accounts of the treasury and real almacen of Pensacola, office for the conclusion of the affairs of Louisiana, treasury of Nogales, and hospital at Pensacola ; ajustamientos and listas de revista of troops and mili- tia at Pensacola and Apalache ; and treasury expedientes of New Orleans and Pensacola. 68 A set of these photographs may be secured from the Carnegie Institution of Wash- ington for the cost of production. Since the writer's return from Spain a larger series of photographs, 3000 plates or pages in all, embracing the regular series of despatches from the governor of Louisiana to the captain general of Cuba, from 1766 to 1791 inclusive, has been carefully made by the Institution, in ten sets, for sale to libraries in the United States. xxxii Introduction The Florida Oriental series (legajos 283-487) includes accounts of the treasury, real almacen, and hospital of St. Augustine ; listas de revista, ajusta- mientos, etc., of troops at St. Augustine ; correspondence of the contadores of St. Augustine; accounts of officials at San Vicente Ferrer, San Juan, and Isla Amalia ; registros de entrada y salida (records of imports and exports) of St. Augustine; asientos (records) of employees; documents regarding Floridianos (Spanish settlers of Florida who were removed to Cuba when Florida was ceded to England in 1763) ; and treasury expedientes of St. Augustine, New Orleans, and Pensacola. The Luisiana series (legajos 488-668) contains accounts of the treasury, custom-house, contaduria, and real almacen of New Orleans ; correspondence of the intendants of Louisiana and West Florida with the ministers of Hacienda, governors of Louisiana, contadores of New Orleans and Pen- sacola, intendants of Havana, Tribunal de Cuentas of Havana, commandants of Pensacola and Mobile, treasury officials of Pensacola, customs officials of New Orleans, and commandants and guardas almacenes of the posts of Louisiana ; accounts of the guardas almacenes of Natchez, Nogales, Placa- minas, Mobile, and New Madrid ; records of the hospital of New Orleans ; royal orders and cedillas; asientos, listas de revista, and ajustamientos of troops, militia, and employees ; commissions and hojas de servicio (service records) of officials of Louisiana; and documents relating to the city of New Orleans. The Nueva Orleans series (legajos 669-706) comprises accounts of the treasury and real almacen of New Orleans ; accounts of the reales almacenes of Mobile, Placaminas, Baton Rouge, and Pensacola; treasury expedientes of New Orleans; and correspondence of the intendants and contadores of Louisiana. Legajos 772 and 830, which are placed in wrong series, contain accounts of the guardas almacenes of Placaminas and Natchez respectively. The legajos in the Capitanes Generales series (legajos 1049-2264), relating to the United States, comprise correspondence of the captains general of Cuba with the governors of Louisiana and Florida, the commandants of Pensacola, the intendants of Louisiana and West Florida, bishops of Louisiana, Spanish agents, ministers and consuls in the United States, commandants of Mobile, commandant of the Army of Operation of 1781-1782, ministers in Spain (War, Hacienda, Indies, State, and Grace and Justice), and various officials in the United States. The Luisiana series (legajos 2317-2321), the Florida Oriental series (legajos 2322-2327), the Florida Occidental series (legajos 2328-2334), and the Varios series (legajos 2335-2346) are continuations of the several series in legajos 1-706, and contain similar materials. Legajos 2351-2375, which were made in the Archivo de Indias from papers removed from the Florida Occidental series (legajos 1-227), comprise miscellaneous correspondence Introduction xxxiii and other documents of the same character as the series from which they were removed. VALUE AND EXPLOITATION OF THE PAPELES DE CUBA. From the indication given above, the value of the Papeles de Cuba for that portion of the United States which was formerly Spanish Louisiana and the Floridas is clearly manifest. A relatively small amount of use has been made of this collection on account of its inaccessibility. Mention has been made of the documents copied for the Department of Archives and History, Jack- son, Mississippi, and for Mr. Houck and Professor Shepherd. Professor I. J. Cox, of the University of Cincinnati, has made investigation of these papers, basing his work upon the notes for this volume, and has published some of the results. 90 The writer secured copies of many Mezieres docu- ments for Professor Herbert E. Bolton, of the University of California, 100 and had an extensive series of notes upon the commerce of Louisiana taken for Professor Edward Channing, of Harvard University. On the whole, how- ever, the Papeles de Cuba present a virgin field for investigation, and it is hoped that this Descriptive Catalogue may be useful in placing the documents at the service of future investigators. OBSERVATIONS. The order pursued in describing the legajos has been indicated above (p. xxix). In cases where inclusive dates are given for a series of letters which are accompanied by drafts of replies, the dates of the drafts often extend either before or after the dates of the original letters. When in the series numeration a smaller number follows a larger, it is due to the fact that more than one numeration was used and the numbers are given in chrono- logical order. All the documents described in this volume are in Spanish except where otherwise indicated. As a knowledge of Spanish is necessary to anyone studying the Papeles de Cuba, the original Spanish titles of documents are given where possible, as being more exact than translations. Where both Spanish and French forms of names of places were used, the form used in any given instance is retained in the descriptions. In the case of New Orleans, Pensacola, and St. Louis, however, the Anglicized form is used in w The following titles are based in part upon documents from the Papeles de Cuba : "The Louisiana-Texas Frontier", part II., in the Southwestern Historical Quarterly, XVII. (1913), 1-42, 140-187; "General Wilkinson and his Later Intrigues with the Spaniards", in the American Historical Review, XIX. 794-812; "Wilkinson's First Break with the Spaniards", in Eighth Annual Report of the Ohio Valley Historical Association (1915), printed in the Biennial Report of the Department of Archives and History of the State of West Virginia, 1911-1912, 1913-1914 (Charleston, W. Va., 1915), PP« 49-S6; West Flonda, 1798-1813: a Study in American Frontier Diplomacy (Balti- more, in press). 100 Part of these copies appear in translation in his Athanase de MSztires (Cleveland, i9 i Sj 2 vols.). They are indicated, under their respective legajos, in the Descriptive Catalogue. 3 xxxiv Introduction all cases except where they occur in titles of documents, and then the form in the document is retained. The names of persons are given in the form or forms used by the individual. Obvious misspellings, especially of personal names by other than the individual himself, have been eliminated. The lists of correspondents in the descriptions are, in general, arranged in chronological or alphabetical order, or in a combination of both. In many legajos, it was found more convenient to make groups according to the prin- cipal correspondents, within which the chronological and alphabetical order is observed. The names of Joseph Vazquez Vahamonde and Vicente Fer- nandez Texeiro or Texeyro require special notice. Their proper alphabetiza- tion is Vazquez and Fernandez, respectively, but as they were known quite generally as Vahamonde and Texeiro, the patronymics have frequently been omitted and they have in these instances been alphabetized as Vahamonde and Texeiro. The common form of the Spanish abbreviations in these documents was made by writing the first part of the word and then placing the last two or three letters in a raised position, e. g., Haz da , hazienda; R B R te8 , Reales Rentas ; S or , Sefior, etc. These raised letters have uniformly been brought down to a level with the remainder and a period placed after the abbreviation. This is the only change made in titles given as in the original. The writer wishes to express his thanks to His Excellency Don Juan Riafio y Gayangos, Spanish minister to the United States, for several letters of introduction ; to the Honorable Charles S. Winans, formerly American consul at Seville, for his many favors ; to Sr. Dn. Pedro Torres Lanzas and Sr. Dn. Jose Gonzalez Verger, the latter now deceased, chief and assistant chief of the Archivo de Indias, for their continued courtesies and assistance ; and to the other employees of the Archivo for their courteous attention.
