	The Stage
		By now Canby was convinced that the horse raids in the south were not being committed by banditos but rather by Texans who were gaining mounts for their Army and that Texan officials were blindsiding him as to their true intentions (Canby to Lynde 6/30/61 OR).
		Canby failed to grasp that the Spanish in New Mexico had always deployed in defense of their homes in the form of mounted troops, almost never behind fortified works unless it was totally necessary.
		Canby thought that Carson’s suggestion to organize a party of Utes and New Mexicans to harass the Texan advance was a good one and should be executed as soon as possible (Anderson to Chapmen 8/5/61 OR).
