Viader's term - California Missions - Just three years before the establishment of the Missoin San Jose de Guadalupe, on June 11, 1797, the eastern shores of San Francisco Bay were so little known that the missoinaries at Santa Clara petitioned the commandte at San Francisco for permission to go into these lands in search of converts. They pointed out in November 1794, that on account of a drought of that year and the consequent shortage of food it would not be a difficult task to persuade the Indians in the unknown country to come to the missoin. Their request was refused, the commandte declaring that the country was "almost unknown, the natives perverse and the adventure too hazardous." At the height of its prosperity in 1800 and for several years thereafter, the padres had considerable trouble with Indians at the missoins and soldiers frequently were sent out to bring in runaways and rebellious natives. In May, 1805, the priests had quite a scare. A story was brought to them that the Indians who had not been converted were planning a general massacre. A hurried call for help was sent to Monterey and San Francisco and troops hastened to Santa Clara from both presidios. However, an investigation proved that the wild yarn had been spread by certain neophytes who hoped to escape floggings for misdoings by frightening the padres.

Francisco García Diego, prefect of the Zacaten friars, who later was to become the first bishop of California. Santa Clara went through the same troublesome period following the advent of Governor Echcandia in 1825 that beset the other Franciscan missions and finally was secularized in 1837. Old Mission Santa Clara records reveal that in 1839-40 two thirds of cattle and sheep had vanished. 1832 the neophyte population has been reduced to 1125, in 1834 was 800 and at the end of its decade it had dwindled to about 290.
