To D. Agustín Mañá: Barcelona
J. M. J.
My most appreciated friendo: I received your last letter, dated, God knows when.
I am with much anxiety, restlessness and sorrows upon knowing the ruinous damage and death that cholera has caused there. It makes no distinctions. It hits everybody because we all have a share, some more, some less in the mystery of iniquity that brings down punishment [2 Ts 2, 7].
The affairs of the School and its issue will be resolved now in some other way. No one by now could pin on the course the things will take, but judging by the appearances, we are in great troubles. I have no intention to leave from this island for the time being. From here I will watch the movement of the wheel that drags and enwraps, snarl and confound all that is most holy and sacred.
