Copy, possibly in Father Xavier de Mora's own hand, of an exchange of letters between himself and Father Eusebio Francisco Kino. In the first, dated October 3, 1696, Father Xavier de Mora criticizes Father Kino's failure to obey orders and his handling of relations with the Indians, referring to possible Indian attacks. The second, dated October 7, 1696, is Father Kino's reply, in which he defends himself and states that Father Xavier de Mora is misinformed.
