[1826-1828]. Carta de Manuel Fernández, coronel comandante general, para Manuel López, capitán de caballería.

Author(s) Manuel Fernández      
Addressee(s) Manuel López      
In English

Letter from Manuel Fernández, a coronel and chief commander, to Manuel López, a cavalry captain.

The author asks Manuel López to send to his wife a letter which he sends attached to this, and informs him that for him it is very difficult to be absent from his department.

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 harboring liberal ideas and of plotting to overthrow Fernando VII and establish a constitutional regime.

If there is no translation for the letter itself, you may copy the text (while using the view 'Standardization') and paste it to an automatic translator of your choice.
