In English

Letter from a non identified woman, in the name of José Xavier, to Diogo Fausto Reixa da Costa, a notary.

The author tells the addressee the more recent news about the political situation in Lisbon.

Diogo Fausto Reixa da Costa, a notary, Francisco Xavier de Sousa, Manuel Joaquim Madeira, a medicine doctor, and José Maria Grande were all accused of meeting at a masonry lodge and of libel against the kingdom, an accusation which the accused denied. They prosecuted the plaintiff themselves for defamation. The proceedings against them include several good behaviour guarantees given by witnesses and also two texts on the Methods to prepare gunpowder (with mercury and with silver).

If there is no translation for the letter itself, you may copy the text (while using the view 'Standardization') and paste it to an automatic translator of your choice.
