by stricken in years trees, ash-trees being the majority, a garden clothed by many beautiful flowers; seats all over, four clean, seats all over, four clean and well-arranged lateral avenues. During the days the birds are singing melodiously among the foliage of the trees. Its whole gives a sight of emotional majesty, emotional majesty without losing the tranquillity and rest appearance. The Zahuapan River causeway with an extension of 200 metres long, has on both sides corpulent ash-trees along the river, in some parts there are built ramparts, giving the impression of dikes, in the middle part of the causeway is a wood where there are found "Senadores" (picnic-eaters) in order to make easier the rest days to walkers. From this causeway one can admire the suggestive sceneries showing the Popocatepetl and Ixtaccihuatl.

But he was the same chap we saw this morning, at any rate, it was the same horse, do you remember if it had any saddlebags on it, when we saw it?"

"That is, I think I saw it... It had when I think I saw it."

"--lots of people who don't like the Credit Banks and don't like Cardenas either, as you know, or have any use for his agrarian reform laws--"

This place was the residence of the first Apostolical See, named "Carolence" in honour of the Spanish King Carlos V, being the first Bishop Don Fray Julián Garcós, on the year 1526. In said Convent, according to tradition, were baptized the four Senators of the Tlaxcaltecan Republic, existing still on the right side of the Church the Baptismal Font, being their God-Fathers the conqueror Hernan Cortes and several of his Captains. The main entrance of the Convent offers a magnificent series of arches and in the inside there is a secret passage, secret passage. On the right side of the entrance is erected a majestic tower, which is rated as the only one through America. The Convent's altars are of a churrigueresque (overloaded) style and they are decorated with paintings drew by the most celebrated Artists, such as Cabrera, Echave, Juarez, etc. In the chapel of the right side there is still the famous pulpit from where was preached in the New World, for first time, the Gospel. The ceiling of the Convent's Church shows magnificent carved cedar panels and decorations forming golden stars. The ceiling is the only one in the whole Spanish America.

"--in spite of what I've been working on and my friend Weber, and what Geoff said about the Unión Militar, I still don't think the Fascists have any hold here to speak of."

" Oh Hugh, for heaven's sake--"
