Lieutenant Commander Gleaves reports to Rear Admiral Coghlan on his meetings with the Native peoples in the Mandingo Harbor area, Gulf of San Blas, where he had done his previous expeditions. He continued scouting and mapping where they had left off on the previous expedition. Gleaves also reports that the Rio Diablo Indians continue to be friendly, and have met and decided to support Panama, and end relations with Colombia. Gleaves’s men are finishing mapping the Gulf of San Blas, and sailing directions will be available soon.
