| In English | Letter from Manuela Sanz to her husband Manuel López, a cavalry captain. The author writes her husband to explain him why she has not yet answered him and to defend herself from the accusation of not caring about his lack of clothes. She also gives him various news, in particular from Catalonia. The General Police Administration was closely monitoring the activities of foreign citizens residing in Portugal, also controlling their communications, in collaboration with the superintendent of the Posts. This letter is part of this intercepted correspondence from those Spanish military and intellectuals who, fleeing the absolutist Spain, had taken refuge in Portugal and were suspected of harbouring liberal ideas and of plotting to overthrow Fernando VII and establish a constitutional regime. |
