107 – Gerturdis Sosa, widow of José Cortés. At daylight on morning of the 8th day of July in the year of the Lord 1820, Gertrudis Sosa, about fifty years old and of the Yuma nation, returned her soul to God in Tubac. She was the widow of José Cortés, an Indian from Bac. I administered (the last rites) to her on the 3rd of the same month. Because of the putrefaction of the body and the maggots, she was buried that afternoon in the cemetery. In certification of this I signed on the said day, month, and year as above. = Fray Narciso Gutiérrez (rubric), in charge of Tubac
