Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Story of the San Gabriel Mission
Mail was carried over the seas in 1846, so if we had all been living then, Ruth and William Higgins, Dorothy Avery and Elizabeth Van Praag, those dear little children way back East, would have known about Carlota many weeks before you, because they live near Boston.
You should all remember that the letter a in Spanish words is always pronounced like the a in father. C has the sound of a in day. I is pronounced like e in the English word me. O is always plain round O.
