On the new Church of «Pueblo Nuevo» (Barcelona)
The increase of population in the city demands construction of new temples. Our bishop has sacrificed and contributed to their magnificence. With this present article, Palau proposes to call the attention of the government and those who possess fortunes in the country. He asks, in the name of religion and of civilization, to stretch out their powerful hands...to foster spiritual happiness in the suburbs of Barcelona.
