But unfortunately, when Fremont reached San Diego, he was unable to procure any horses to mount his men. and although he had arrived on the 29th of July, it was not until the 8th of August that he was able to move." 7 In the meanwhile, Stockton had sailed in the Congress for San Pedro, U. C. On the
...way he landed at Santa Barbara, of which he took possession, and leaving a small force for its defense, he proceeded to San Pedro, where he arrived on the 6th of August.
A force of 400 men and some artillery was immediately landed, which captured the place." 8 The following day two commis- sioners, empowered to enter into negotiations for a cessasion of hostilities, arrived from General Castro.
