Talk:Pablo Tac

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pablo Tac, a Luiseño indian was born in Mission San Luis Rey in 1822. He always wanted to be a missionary and thought that the priests were going to help him while other indians thought they were torturing them. The priests thought Pablo was a good student and at the age of ten he went to Rome to receive special schooling. While in Rome, Tac wrote a diary saying how the lives of the indians changed when the missionarys came to California. Sadly, Tac died of smallpox in 1841, before he reached the age of 20.
