1789. Carta de Vicente Fernández, labrador, para Marcelina Díaz de Cuesta.

Letter from Vicente Fernández, a farmer, to Marcelina Díaz de Cuesta.

The author writes her lover to express his sorrow for not having been able to meet her while he was in Vitoria, and his hope to meet her again as soon as possible.

Marcelina Díaz de Cuesta, represented by his father, brought a lawsuit against Vicente Fernández, nephew of the employer of the girl, demanding from him to marry her, because they had had an intimate relationship and because she was pregnant. During the process a jurisdictional conflict emerged, which was resolved by the chancellery of Valladolid. The proceedings are incomplete, so we do not know which was the final sentence.
