1823. Carta de participação de Joaquim Maria Torres, impressor, para o Infante Dom Miguel.

Author(s) Joaquim Maria Torres      
Addressee(s) Infante Dom Miguel      
In English

Report letter from Joaquim Maria Torres, a printer, to Prince Dom Miguel.

The author reports on a meeting with a political conspirator, Cândido de Almeida Sandoval.

These proceedings were opened in 1823 to punish a political conspiracy against the absolutist regime. Among the accused was Cândido de Almeida Sandoval, who had already been arrested by the former liberal regime for violating the Law of the Freedom of Press. Many of the accused were acquitted, but not Sandoval, who was exiled to Angola, where he kept ending up in jail and escaping from it. Even Jean Baptiste-Douiville (a French traveller who was in Central Africa between 1828 and 1830) met him and refers his activism in his diaries.
