Code entry
During the governorship of Mendez de Canzo the friars complained that the chiefs had abdicated their order-keeping powers and the governor refused to assume them, forcing the Franciscans to move into the vacuum. A few short years later Father Geronimo de Celaya was preaching that Governor Ybarra had no jurisdiction over the natives whatever. [Note 46: Gov. Ybarra 7/27/1605] (Bushnell KC)
