Well, since the ambiguity of the eventual international boundary north 
of the NG was the very reason for the NG, the Spanish settlers at BP 
remained loyal to Spain, and Spain still claimed jurisiction over them, 
although it had agreed to withdraw its military beyond the Sabine in the 
NG agreement.  I think that leaving the BP settlement north of the NG 
was the two parties' way of agreeing to disagree as to who owned it 
without having to require its removal.

Since General Salcedo wrote "...along this bayou to the west bank of 
Bayou Pierre Lake at Bayou Pierre settlement," I think we owe it to him 
to go some ways up the west side of the lake and not just stop at its 
southernmost point.  It is the settlement, not the lake, that must be 
left north of the NG.  The truth is that I have located the BP 
settlement and will tell all as soon as I get it written up.  It does 
take some explaining, though.
