Author(s)	José Moreno Ferreira
Addressee(s)	Vicente Gomes Godinho
In English	Denounciation letter from José Moreno Ferreira, a church priest, to Vicente Gomes Godinho, a priest. The author denounces the bigamy behaviour of Bartolomeu de Orta. Bartolomeu Rodrigues, mulatto, Old-Christian, also known as Bartolomeu de Orta, a cattle owner born in Spain, Almendro, and living in Southern Portugal, in Pedrógão, was accused of bigamy. His first wife had fled to Badajoz to avoid her husband's physical abuse and was believed to have died. She did not, though, and when she learned that he was remarried she had him prosecuted. He was sentenced by the Inquisition to an exile of 4 years in Angola.
