In English | Note from the prisoner António de Andrade to the abbot of Oporto cathedral. The author tells the addressee that he is sending him an appended letter that another prisoner wrote instead of confessing himself. Francisco Fernandes, while waiting for his execution in the Oporto jail and since he was expected to confess his sins, wrote a denial of the Catholic faith instead. The Inquisition decided to leave him be, since he was writing in despair. Nevertheless, if his sentence was by any chance commuted, he would be persecuted for the same denial. |
