Dear Brother MarshaU: It has not been so long since I last wrote to you, and here I am writing again, this beautiful afternoon. The sun is. shining and we have bad. ideal Weather here for several weeks. It is like spring everything is getting green and we go without our vests and then it is plenty hot. I had a swell Christmas, and am beginning a happy New Year, and I want to thank my many friends who sent m cards and gifts, as they helped to make my holiday season much more pleksant. I am happy to hear that there are some more Missionaries getting ready to go on missions. I hope that one of them is sent here, as this is such an interesting country, and so historical. I am still working in Mobile and I like it fine here. I ran across an interesting article the other day and thought, seeing it was history and very interesting, that you might like to publish it in the paper. It may be more interesting to me because I have . been here. But Mobile played a great part in the Civil War and there are other missionaries who have been here, who will be Interested In it.

DePineda is said to have been the first white man to walk on the land now ocupied by Mobile. .It was nearly two hundred years later, in 1711, that the great Frenchman, Jean Baptiste LeMoyne. Sieur de Bienville, built Fort Louis de la Mobile on the site where the city of Mobile now stands and designated it as the capitol of the immense Territory of Louisiana, which at that time extended from the Gulf to the Great Lakes and from the Alleghanies to the Rocky Mountains. In 1717 the French built Fort Cbn-dwhich covered the block bounded by Royal, St. Emanuel, Church, and Theatre Streets. In 1748 a palisade was built to enclose government buildings outside the fort. This palisade extended from the fort up Royal street to St. Francis street, then west to St. Joseph street,- then south to the fort Trouble In Europe and Indian wars In America finally resoled in France ceding Mobile and territory east of the Mississippa to Great Britain in 1763. The British Improved Fort Oonde and named it Fort Charlotte In honor of Englands yonng queen. Spain captured Mobile in 1779 and controlled the city for twenty-onyears In 1800 Napoleon forced Snain to cede, to France the province of Louisiana, then In 1803 Thomas Jefferson.
