Dallas has not written in a long time, because mental activity causes headaches. He explains his difficulties at length. They have a nice fort, and a good priest and Church. Bishop John C. Neraz dedicated the church the other day. Across the river in Coahuila they have it very hard. The Bishop Montidioca has withdrawn all the priests in Coahuila because the Governor insists upon having all the baptisms registered. It is something like an interdict of the Middle ages. He speaks of his daughter Marie's health; Elsie is at Austin. He has heard again from their father in Paris who threatens to appeal to the Courts because his children do not write to him. He sends a review of Captain B's pamphlet. Capt B. was born in Ireland but is either not a Catholic or has "gone back" on his faith. :: X-2-i A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
