A photocopy of a deed of San Clemente Island from Pio Pico, governor of Alta California, to his brother Andres and to William Workman, 12 May 1846.

The item is two pages, lists three conditions on the grant and is signed by Pio Pico, Jose Matias Moreno, who was probably the governor's secretary, and there is a note at the end by Moreno that the deed was recorded in the proper book of deeds.
