1628. Carta de Francisco Pérez de la Cerda para su padre Bernabé Pérez.

Author(s) Francisco Pérez      
Addressee(s) Bernabé Pérez      
In English

Letter from Francisco Pérez de la Cerda to his father Bernabé Pérez.

The author informs his father of his entry into the novitiate as an Augustinian friar. He asks him also to pay some expenses, consequence of his entry, for which he had had to loan money.

In 1629, Frair Bartolomé de Esteban, rector of the Collegium of San Agustín in Alcalá de Henares, demanded from Bernabé Pérez, through the tribunal of the university, the payment of several expenses made by the collegium because of the religious profession of Francisco Pérez de la Cerda. Those expenses included not only food and clothing, but had been also caused by the typhus he had caught in the convent of Valladolid, and which ended up killing him. Moreover, the demands of the rector were supported by the desires expressed by Francisco Pérez de la Cerda, who had repeatedly asked his father to give alms to the convent. However, Bernabé Pérez considered that the collegium should pay the expenses and, moreover, he claimed that his son had made his entry into the religious profession without his consent. He also claimed that the case was not competency of the university court. A final judgment on the lawsuit cannot be found in the preserved proceedings, but only the decision of the court about the competency conflict.

This letter was handed over by Bernabé Pérez to demonstrate that at the time it had been written he did not know about religious profession of his son.
