In this whole valley I only know two and these two have told me that they are not to our satisfaction and do not want to pay more. But in the current situation it looks very difficult. I have given Ordinary Gallart the fundraising plans for you and recommended that he will be as careful with them as you are....". Fine and scarce correspondence from Andorra.
