To Col. Stephen F. Austin

Sir Above is stated the limits of the Atascosito District as it was agreed on at the meeting of the inhabitants here and as we suppose ought now to stand since the 20 leagues on the Sabine here tofore reserved has been constituted a Colony—if there be any error or defect in defining the limits you will alter or supply it in the translation—
