1676. Carta de Manuel de Robles, fraile, para Mariana de Pabesa, viuda de soldado.

Author(s) Manuel de Robles      
Addressee(s) Mariana de Pabesa      
In English

Letter from Manuel de Robles, a friar, to Mariana de Pabesa, a soldier´s widow.

The author writes to Mariana de Pabesa to inform her about her husband´s death at the Hospital Real in Palamós.

Tomás López was accused of bigamy and condemned to prison by the Holy Office, although he never served the sentence because he passed away. Firstly, he got married to María de Gracia in Cuenca. From there he migrated to Alcalá la Real (Jaén), where he met María de Pabesa (also known as Mariana de Pabesa), with whom he had a marital life between Alcalá la Rea and Campillo de Arenas (Granada). When the defendant was condemned to prison by the Inquisition, his second wife provided the letter that Manuel de Robles, a religious from the Order of San Juan de Dios, had sent her from Girona to inform her about her husband´s passing away. This letter was delivered by Francisco de la Barrera, Manuel de Robles´ brother-in-law, who was required to testify. He corroborated the letter was from his brother-in-law, but it was a long time since he did not have any news from him.
