A letter written by the Jesuit Father Ugarte, a member of the College of Mexico, to Padre Provincial Palacios containing a detailed history on the early California missions. Ugarte claims the preceding padre provincials did not provide enough money and the missions of San Isidro and San Bruno have deteriorated. He describes raising money for the missions of San Francisco Xavier and Loreto and hopes for increased support for further missionary work in California.
Accompanied by a handwritten transcription.
