1745. Carta apócrifa de Andrés Rodríguez Millán fingiendo ser Gil de Orzera, para Ignacio de Arisméndez.

Apocriphal letter sent by Andrés Rodríguez Millán, who pretends to be Gil de Orzera, to Ignacio de Arisméndez.

The author informs Ignacio de Arisméndez that he is waiting for the arrival of the servant of the addressee and warns him to tell the servant to be discreet and not to ask after anyone.

In 1745, Manuel Navarro y Larraga was accused of sorcery. He was seized five notes, various papers, a candle and other objects. The notes contained a list of instructions to find a treasure, but only one of them has been conserved (PS8101). It seems that these notes had been sent by Ignacio de Arisméndez by means of a servant, who brought them to Belmonte, where the treasure could allegedly be found. The accused had been imprisoned for six years in Ceuta, where afterwards he lived, because he had been banished from Madrid for another crime. He had planned to go to Belmonte to follow the instructions contained in the notes. There had been a correspondence between the two of them, before the travel of Manuel Navarro y Larraga to Belmonte, in which they discussed the matter of the treasure.
