Colegio de propaganda fide de N. S. de Guadalupe de Misioneros 
franciscanos de la Observancia, fundado extramuros de la Ciudad 
de Zacatecas en la Republica Mexicana ”. 
(The indice shows 22 chapters. The first 14 relate to the founding and 
the inner history of the college; ch. 15, “ Progresos de las Misiones ”; 
ch, 16, “ Frutos de las Misiones”; ch. 17, “Entra N. V. P. al Nayarit”;

Fray Francisco Freges. 
“ Bosquejo de la Historia del Colegio de N. S. de Guadalupe de 
Zacatecas y sus Misiones, segunda parte del que hizo el R. V. P. 
Fr. Antonio Alcocer ; y que continua en el mismo orden el P. Fr. 
Francisco Freges Cronista del Mismo. Afio de 1845.” 
(There are present only fragments of this work. The author states that 
with respect to the early history of the college he found himself under 
the same difficulty that Father Alcocer had met, namely that the mate- 
rials had been lent to the College of Santa Cruz and had not been 
returned. ) 
“Cronica del Colegio del N. S. de Guadalupe de Zacatecas. Por 
P. Fr. Freges. Ano de 1834.” Signed with a rubric. 
(This is different from the manuscript noted just above. It contains a 
chronology of persons, one of events, and biographical sketches. ) 
“ Opusculos de R. P. Fr. Francisco Freges Divididos en Tres Partes. 
Afio de 1840.” 1 vol. 
(It contains various brief historical sketches, ending with the founding of 
the College of Zapopan.) 
“ Memoria historica y Cronolégica del Colegio de N. S. de Guada- 
lupe de Zacatecas.” 
(This seems to include the first four of the following manuscripts, which 
are written on the same kind of paper.) 
“ Cronologia de los Capi[tu]los y Empleados.” 1707-1847. 
“ Cronologia de los Profesos.”’ 
“ Cronologia de la Fundacion.” 
“ Cronologia de los Incorporaciones.”’ 
“ Colegios de Espafioles en la Independencia.” 
(Fragamentary. ) 
“ Notas Chronolégicas de el Mapa de la Provincia de Téxas.” 
“ Vida del Venerable P® Fr. Antonio Margil de Jesus.” 
(An unsigned manuscript of about 300 pages, evidently original and dis- 
tinct from that by Espinosa, to which this one makes reference.) 
Parecer with respect to whether the missionaries of Texas may raise 
crops to sell. Unsigned and undated. 15 pp. 
Miscellaneous correspondence concerning the missions, books of 
decrees, licenses, acts of the Discretorio, etc. 
FATHER MARGIL RELICS. 
In a separate case in the library there is a large collection of relics of 
Father Margil which are kept with great care and pride. In the same case 
are several cuadernos relating to the beatification of Father Margil, a matter 
that is still before the papal court.
