In English

Note from Francisco Belitas to Francisco Arroyo.

The author writes to Francisco Arroyo warning him about a possible visit from Leonarda Huete, one of the defendants, to her nephew who is ill.

Between 1782 and 1784, a trial was opened for witchcraft against two sisters: Leonarda and Francisca Huete, also known as “las pelonas” (the bold ones), however, the proceeding ended up being suspended. Leonarda and Francisca Huete were accused of carrying out superstitious healings and spells in the village of Ajofrín, where they went to heal several people, Ulpiano Aguirre among them. Francisco Arroyo, Ulpiano’s uncle, was inquired about these two women and he provided the note he was given by Francisco Belitas, a neighbor from Navahermosa. Francisco Belitas was meant to contact the sisters for them to come and heal Francisco Arroyo’s nephew.
