Two screws. We shall send them from here. (They were taken.) One anvil. It will be sent from here. (One large anvil was taken.) Two screw plates to make screws for arquebuses. We shall send them from here. (One was taken.) Two grind-stones. They will be sent from here. (Two were taken.) Two dozen carpenters' axes. We will send them from here. (They were taken.) Six French saws. They shall be sent from here. (They were sent.) Oil. We must send some of that which comes in the merchant ships. Lead. We have it. (cc _quintals_ were taken. But this is the first time that we have been asked for lead; for each time that soldiers go, they take with them all the lead they wish; and it was never known that they needed it there. The vessels here are leaded, but not there; for never until now has any vessel been launched there, that has to sail on this course [between the Philippines and New Spain].) Tin. We must buy some of that which comes from España, for we have none here. (Eighty _arrobas_ were taken--those above-mentioned.) Copper. We have it here. (cc _quintals_ are being taken now; for it had not been extracted when the ship sailed.) Tallow. (ccxix _quintals_ and three _arrobas_, less a small quantity used in repairing the ship in the port, were taken; and more of it will be taken this year. Trumpeters and mechanics. (At the time we had no Indians to send them, nor do we have any now.) Indian workmen of all trades: tailors, shoemakers, carpenters, masons. (At the time we had no Indians to send them, nor do we have them now.) In addition to all the above the vessel took the founder who was going to cast artillery. One tulcapoté, to cover the clay mould for the artillery. Two levels. One claw hammer. One medium sized saw. One _quintal_ of steel to make files, punches, and drills, for boring the artillery. Twenty-nine _arrobas_ and ten _libras_ of wrought iron for the manufacture of _animas_, sledge hammers, tongs, and hammers with which to work the iron for the artillery. A screw-plate with seven holes; and seven sledge-hammers. One anvil and forge. Another small forge and three screws. [_Endorsed_: "Without date or signature."] [All these items apparently refer to articles subsequently added to the list; for on the MS. each one is checked off.] Memorandum of what we need in this camp of his Majesty which is stationed and has its residence in the Western Islands, in addition to the requests made in the letters and memoranda which have been sent in the past. It is as follows: _Bellows_: First of all we need four pairs of bellows--two pairs made of dressed leather, and the other two of rawhide. They should be sent wrapped in coarse frieze, and placed in their jars, so as not to be gnawed by worms. _Tubes_: Four pairs of bellows-tubes large enough for the forges. _Axes_: One hundred Viscayan iron axes for the carpenters. _Anvils_: An anvil weighing about one _quintal_ or six _arrobas_.
