July 12
Ibiza, July-September, 1854
To Ildefonso Gatell in Barcelona.
The letter is a lengthy eulogy of the recipient, starting with: My dear friend. Of course you are a scapegrace, but there is something good in you. How pleased I am with you! We are companions of arms...and we had combatted together...How grateful I am for the company you kept me on a dangerous day... How good is a friend in time of need. Count always with the fidelity and constancy. Francisco.
