Sir, - The obsequies for the great Manolo, conducted before the pomp of the church in the Monumental Plaza, Mexico, were an impressive spectacle: the great matador was processed round the bullring in an ornate coffin, to tumultuous emotions from a vast crowd.
How much more appropriate would it have been if he were to have been hitched by the neck to a travois and pulled from the ring by a pair of horses? - Yours, etc.,
Mexico City.
