1699. Carta de Miguel de Sotomayor, alférez, para José Bermúdez de Castro.

Author(s) Miguel de Sotomayor      
Addressee(s) José Bermúdez de Castro      
In English

Letter from Miguel de Sotomayor, ensign, to José Bermúdez de Castro.

The author answers José Bermúdez de Castro about various matters, and requires him the payment of a debt.

The lawsuit was brought in 1702 by Antonia Pardo Osorio against José Bermúdez de Castro, for the payment of a debt. The defendant owed a certain amount of money to Miguel de Sotomayor, ensign and resident in La Coruña, who died between 1699 and 1702. Antonia Pardo Osorio, widow of Miguel de Sotomayor and legitimate heir of his property, sued José Bermúdez de Castro for refusing to pay the debt she had contracted with her husband. According to the applicant, the debt amounted to 681 reales. In the process several documents were collected to be used as proofs: among them, six private letters. The first three letters (PS6097, PS6098 and PS6099) were submitted by the applicant as a proof that there was indeed a debt between José Bermúdez de Castro and Miguel de Sotomayor; the last three letters (PS6100, PS6101 and PS6102) were provided by José Bermúdez de Castro to show that this debt amounted only to 260 reales.
