Reconnaissance of the Port of San Francisco, with Map

Report of the Pilot Don Jose de Canizares to Commander Don Juan de Ayala

Translation of a Certified Copy of the Original in the Archives of the
Indies at Seville.
Dear Captain: - During the four times that I made reconnaissance of
this Port, and made its map, I found at the northeast and
north-northeast what is shown on the map and I here describe. To the
north-northeast of Angel Island, distant about a mile, there is a bay
running in a direction north-northwest to south-southwest. The distance
between the points forming said bay, is about two leagues, and the shore
line is about two and a half leagues.
