and their money TO Spain The Fort is
weak at this time, not having more than
$50 soldiers in it. There is a constant
communication between the fort and the
town. in fact it is hardly possible to say
who is Royal or who is Imperial in the
city, as they both pass and repass in every
direction, regardless of each other. Ii is
stated that there are Ave or six thousand
imperial troops in the city-but the fact is.
there are not as many hundreds. unless
you include every Indian and negro in the
