Additional Details

Prints the decree of President José Justo Corro, clarifying that the states of Mexico have been replaced by administrative departments--most notably that Coahuila y Tejas be divided into two departments. This reflected the reality that the central government had no control over the rebellious Texan part of the state. Not in OCLC.
