An Historical Sketch of California and Her Missions
To the Revered Memory of Junipero Serra
And of My Great Grandparents Esteban and Catalina Munras
This Book Is Affectionately Dedicated
In producing this book I wish to thank my Mother, who wrote for me in modern notation the music of the hymns of the Mission Fathers which are contained in this work, and gave me much welcome information; also Rev. Raymond M. Mestres, my zealous parish Priest, successor and compatriot of Junipero Serra and the Mission Padres, for valuable data, and for allowing me access to the early archives of San Carlos Mission and of the Mission Church of Monterey.
