Paris, 19 July 1889
[Mr. Mariano Ponce]
Comrade,
I received the Solidaridad; thank you. There is a family of compatriots here who wants to subscribe to the Solidaridad beginning with number one. The name is Mme. Boustead, 3 Rue de Bassins, Paris. Therefore, send them all the issues together with the receipt.
Blumentritt is asking for more copies of Defensa del Noli. Send me many copies of Defensa and a few Soberania monacal. Send to Manila. You may take charge of the sale of Defensa at the price you want. Divide the proceeds into three parts; One part for the Solidaridad Association, one for Solidaridad periodical, and one for me. Send a copy each of Defensa to Font and Fr. Rodriguez. Or if not, I shall do it.
This is all.
