And to them he must write; to Mis-
sion San Buenaventura, San Gabri-
ell Arcangel. San Juan Capistrano,
San Diego de Alcala, Santa Clara,
San Luis Obispo de Tolosa, San An
tonic de Padua, and San Francisco
de Asis.
AS he leaned over the table his
head was light with fever, and the
quill in his hand shook. For a mo-
ment he needs must lay his head
down on the clean page before him,
and close his eyes. Yet he must
write though well he knew
those brothers of the farther mis-
sions would never reach him in
time. But Palou, his closest broth
er, his Mallorcan countryman
he must come. He reused himself
and started writing, ending the let
ter, Good Brother Palou, come and
assist me to die!''
For hours into the night, the little
cell was quiet except for the
scratching of the pen, and the gentle
clicking of his rosary when he rest
ed from his writing. Once Pho
slipped in, and put fresh candles in
the candle-sockets. He curled up
at the fathers feet, and was soon
asleep.
AS he wrote a white fog moved
silently in from the sea, travelling
inland to the great valleys of the
Salinas, the San Joaquin, the Sacra-
mento, drowning all things in thick
white vapor. Along the far-fung
coast, golden beaches, shingly
strands, jutting promontories and
forbidding rocks the tides of morn
ing raced.
The letters were finished, all but
one Junipero Sierra walked to a
wooden shutter, opened it to the cold
dawn. A breath of fog drifted into
the cell like wrath, and warmed
itself at the candles.
He seated himself again. With a
prayer he pulled clean page to-
ward him, and wrote slowly:
''To Be Delivered After My Death.
''To His Esteemed Excellency,
Don Pedro FACES, Gobernador-Gen-
eral Of the CALIFORNIA;, Baja and
Alta"
Lifting his spectacles, he wiped
away some tears that had gathered
beneath the thick lenses, then wrote,
'sMy beloved son :"
Just as he finished, Pho awoke,
and the swallows were aware that
it was dawn. Junipero Sierra read
the letter, sighed, and signed it with
his rubric:
"Fr. Junipero Sierra"

CHAPTER XVI

Don Pedro FACES agreed with An
gustias that it was indelicate for La
Gobernadora to be confined by a
physician, man. But the lady her
self, when she learned that very
learned man Of medicine was sta
toned at the Preside of San Fran
cisco, made up her mind that she
would not remain in Monterey, to
be delivered by the midwife from
the Mission Carmelo, who also de-
livered the Indian women.
The Governor himself, greatly
worried by the news he had re-
ceived from Mexico concerning the
possibility of the missions of Cali
fornia being put under the guardian
ship of the Dominican Order, felt
the need of discussing the situation
with Junipero Serra's countryman,
Francisco Palou, the Mallorcan, at
San Francisco. Fray Palou was
wise, liberal, friendly, and with him
Don Pedro felt he could discuss his
impasse with Sierra, and other mat.

cream linen, marked off in

Tiny scrolls in outline stitch with

and then rolling them.

hemstitching the rolled edges is

looked at these letters once, but I
can scarcely see so read, my
son, and carefully. / may have
been mistaken when I read them. 3"
The boy read, slowly, painfully,
stumbling over the stilted official
phraseology of the letters from the
Viceroy, and the Father Guardian
in Mexico.
There was no hope for the Mis-
sion Santa Barbara. The Governor,
Don Pedro FACES, had not recon-
mended the idea. 1t was regret
table the two Franciscans, Fray
Mariana Rubi and Fray Bartolome
Gill, were unsuitable, but it was hard
to get decent men to leave Mexico,
and 60 to the distant province of
California.
There was a friendly personal let
ter from the Father Guardian, but
that gave Junipero Sierra no COM
fort. Sierra was warned against u.s.
ing his temporal influence, as there
were rumors abroad that the mis-
sions in California were to be turned
over to the Order of Dominicans,
and the Franciscans returned to
Mexico.
''No, no." faltered the franciscan.
"No, Pho, you do not read that tru-
ly! California to be delivered to the
Dominicans? But California is San
Francisco's own country cho-
sen by his own wish never
should it be in other hands than
