Life of Ven; Padre Junipero Serra

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. While abler pens than mine are preparing long and elaborate essays on the life and apostolic labors of the humble son of Saint Francis, let the people of California with forebearing generosity pass over the many deficien cies they will find in this translation, and remember only the cordial affection with which it is offered.
