Accordingly Ripoll gave an order for the guard to withdraw, but the Indians insisted that the soldiers leave their weapons.

Two refused, whereupon they we're savagely attacked and wounded.

This so incensed Guerra that he marched up from the presidio in full force, and a fight of several hours ensued, the Indians shooting with guns and arrows from behind the pillars of the corridors.

Two Indians were killed and three wounded, and four of the soldiers were wounded.

When Guerra retired to the presidio, the Indians stole all the clothing and other portable property they could carry (carefully respecting everything, however, belonging to the church), and fled to the hills.
