Abstract: Missionaries report on education and conversions, alongside reflections on travel between Manila and New Spain. They note illnesses on board and the heavy toll on passengers. Geographic references to Micronesia include voyages near Pohnpei and the Marshall Islands, which are marked as both perilous and essential links.
