This seems to show that the Fathers had decided to put up at least a temporary chapel, until the governor should authorize a permanent building. Before these dates, save in case of necessity or in articulo mortis of a petitioner, the Fathers had baptized a great many from Santa Isabel and from San Felipe, but always at the mission.
