Excerpt from Indiana's First War
I shall content myself then, in order not to leave Mon seigneur ignorant of the principal circumstances of my enterprise, by sending him an extract from a journal which I have kept since I undertook it. If success did not come in response to the measures that I had taken to assure it, I flatter myself that Monseigneur will not be at all surprised when he learns of misfortunes that I have had to endure - misfortunes, of which it was im possible to escape the effect, since it had not been possible to foresee them, and since I lacked the means of remedy ing them even if I had perceived them.
