In English | Letter from Francisco de Cossio, a royal taxes administrator, to an unidentified clergyman. Francisco de Cossio writes to an unidentified comendador-priest to inform him about his situation with Escolástica, his wife, and other relevant topics. Francisco de Cossio was married to Escolástica Céspedes since 1670 and they both were residents of Ciudad Real. Francisco left to Potes to work and began a correspondence with his wife. In some of the letters he sent her, he asked for money and he also urged her to "dissolve their marriage" (fol. 6r). Escolástica argued she had learnt her husband had remarried in Potes. Therefore, she decided to investigate and asked Dionisio de Palacios to write a letter to Mateo Ruiz Carneros on her behalf asking for information about her husband. Eventually the case was suspended due to the lack of documents or testimonies to confirm that Francisco Cossio had remarried in Potes. This letter has some annotations on the left margin: "religious, bold and a mercenary". It could be a description of the defendant written down by the inquisitors. |
