Auto of Otermin, in Auttos tocantes, 1; “Auto y dilijencia,” in Ibid., 6; “Auto (de Otermin) : Salieron el dia 22.” in Ibid., 7. Just how much aid the Pueblos were expecting from the Apaches cannot be inferred. That it was the current belief that aid was to be had from them, however, the documents noted above, as well as others cited below, state clearly.

It is definitely stated, however, that the Apaches in Northern New Mexico took part in the massacre of the Spaniards there (Auttos tocantes, 22).
