PREFATORY NOTE.
This volume is made up of separate sketches, historical or allegorical,
having in some degree a bond of union in the idea of "the higher
sacrifice."
I am under obligations to Professor William R. Dudley for the use of a
photograph of a record of Father Serra. This was secured through the
kindness of the late Father Casanova, of Monterey.
PALO ALTO, CAL., June 1, 1896.
