Mr. Flores to Mr. Lafragua.

As a special commissioner from the State of Coahuila, I have the honor of informing the superior government of the result of the interviews had between the American commissioner, H. M. Atkinson, and the chiefs of the tribes of Kickapoos, Lipans, Mescaleros, and Comanches concerning their transfer to the American reservations. Mr. Atkinson having set forth the advantages they would receive and the good disposition of his Government to protect them, being at the same time responsible for the support and education of their children, Captains Mosquito of the Kickapoos, Guacha Viejo of the Lipans, Colorado and Henrique of the Mescaleros, and Taquifraf of the Comanches agreed to accept the benefits offered them by the American nation, promising to set out on their march as soon as they received the supply of provisions they need until they arrive at the place where they are to locate. I inform you of the above in order that you may forward it to the governor. Independence and liberty.
