In English | Letter from José Durán de Hinojal to Bartolomé José de Ocampo y Mata, the bishop of Plasencia The author informs the bishop of the news regarding the management of the bishopric and he answers to the doubts the addressee had asked in his letter. In 1704, José Gregorio de Rojas, the new bishop of Plasencia, sued the executor of the former bishop´s properties. He wanted him to bear the costs from the reparations of the bishopric´s houses and palaces. Several buildings from the Episcopal dignity located in Plasencia, Béjar, Piornal and Jaraicejo; were in a dilapidated condition. These problems were not new, in 1692 a similar lawsuit had been lodged and it was rendered void. A thorough examination was commissioned by the new bishop in order to determine the state of the different palaces and houses, as well as the former bishop´s management for all these matters. In the inquiry carried out regarding Jaraicejo´s buildings, one of the witnesses, José Durán Hinojal, presented several letters which proved the deceased bishop´s attempts to do the essential repairs. |
