This diary is Father Palóu's description of the establishment of a mission at San Francisco Bay, and the exploration of the surrounding area. The diary also claims to contain the first authenticated account of the arrival of a sailing vessel to the Bay. Translated to English by Frank de Thoma in 1899.
