In English | Letter from Andrés Fernández to Manuel López, a cavalry captain. The author informs Manuel López that he has handed over all the receipts the addressee has sent him, with the exception of one, which he has not been able to deliver in person because of his poor health and because of the close surveillance by the police he is under. He also informs the addressee about the last movements of the troops in the areas of Salamanca, Catalonia and Vizcaya. The General Police Administration was closely monitoring the activities of foreign citizens residing in Portugal, also controlling their communications, in collaboration with the superintendent of the Posts. This letter is part of this intercepted correspondence from those Spanish military and intellectuals who, fleeing the absolutist Spain, had taken refuge in Portugal and were suspected of harboring liberal ideas and of plotting to overthrow Fernando VII and establish a constitutional regime. |
