Request letter from [Duarte Rebelo de Mendonça], a salesman, to [Domingos Ferreira] and a non-identified addressee.

The author asks the addressees to advise him on how wise it is to confess guilt just in order to be liberated from prison. He also asks them to take care of his affairs and his family while he is away.

Two New Christians, António Soares de Mendonça and his son Duarte Rebelo de Mendonça, were arrested by the Inquisition under the accusation of publicly offending the fiscal behavior of the institution’s officials. The son, while in prison, used a maid to carry his messages to his family and friends and was denounced by her to the same court.
