Paris
I uphold and will uphold our political ideas, but without money I will have to ask favors from persons who perhaps entertain opposite ideas.

Paris, 9 November 1890
MR. JOSE RIZAL
MY DISTINGUISHED FRIEND AND COUNTRYMAN:
With my greetings I am sending you a million thanks for the favors you have done me.
Concerning the political ideas that we have talked about, I uphold and will uphold them always; but while I have no money, I will have to ask favors from persons to get me a job, who perhaps entertain ideas opposite mine, but discretely I will do whatever I can for the realization of our ideas.
On Friday of this week I will depart from here for Marseille.
Goodbye.
Your comrade,
RAIMUNDO DE PERIO
P. S.
Many regards to Don Marcelo and all our countrymen.
