Claim of Pedro Dolet, Frenchman (Pierre Dole)
On December 29, 1795, I, Jose Cayetano de Zepede, executor to Los Adais
and by request of Antonio Gil y Barbo Governor of Texas at Nacogdoches,
went with my assistant, Don Jose de La Vega to a place at Los Adais,
where a petitioner had built a home there. I granted this land.
He pulled up Grass,
Planted Stakes,
Threw dust into the air,
To show his possession.
I have granted this land and designate the aforesaid tract of land as
“San Pedro de Los Adais.”
Signed:
Don Luis de La Vega.
