Why did Iturbide choose Fern谩ndez for the mission to California?

Upvote:1

Fern谩ndez was suggested to Iturbide by Pedro Celestino Negrete. According to Irving Richman's California under Spain and Mexico, when Iturbide wanted to send soldiers to California, General Negrete suggested that he send a commissioner instead. Fern谩ndez may have already been to California while serving as naval chaplain in the port of San Blas.
