1653. Carta de António de Antas Barreto, vigário, para Alexandre da Silva, deputado.

Author(s) António de Antas Barreto      
Addressee(s) Alexandre da Silva      
In English

Request letter from António de Antas Barreto, vicar, to Alexandre da Silva, deputy.

The author asks the recipient to defend him against the charges of his enemies, since he had already been called to an inquiry.

António de Antas Barreto, vicar in the church of São Mamede de Sezures, Barcelos, was accused of sodomy with about 15 young men. He was denounced by Luís da Silva Coelho (letter PSCR0280), who knew that the vicar had harrassed the young man Francisco Teixeira (letters PSCR0281 and PSCR0282). The defendant was sentenced to four years out of the Kingdom and to pay the costs of the proceedings.
