“The viceroy of New Spain requested that Father Massanet suggest additional mission sites to be developed in northern Coahuila, but the padre declined-arguing that he had recommended sites on other occasions, only to see that without necessary supplies and governmental support such plans were futile.”
Father Massanet indicates that the mission systems will fail if the government does not fully participate. Do you agree? Why or Why not?
