Excerpt from The Story of New Mexico
I am greatly indebted not only to prominent libraries in this country but also to J. P. Esq., of Boston, whose valuable collection of books on New Mexico was kindly furnished for. My use.
Especially, also, do I gratefully acknowledge the friendly aid of Mr. A. De F. Bandelier, of Santa Fé, whose noted archeological publications and unpublished manuscripts were placed at my disposal, after his thorough investigations and transcriptions from the Franciscan Mission and Mexican archives had left no desirable authority for the search of less favored students.
