1709. Carta de Juan Pedro Flores, alguacil de campo, para Maruja.

Author(s) Juan Pedro Flores      
Addressee(s) Maruja      
In English

Letter from Juan Pedro Flores, a rural bailiff, to Maruja.

The author asks Maruja to make him several favours, such as send him his mail or ask his brother for certain money.

This litigation was issued in 1710 by the Crown Prosecutor against Antonio Gallo and his partners for the escape of seven inmates from the prison of Valladolid. Antonio Gallo, a rural bailiff, was accused of several offences and frauds and also of making use of his position to make extortions and release some defendants. Several bailiffs were subsequently investigated and two other cases were opened: one against Santiago Caballero for unlawful treatment and another one against Juan Pedro Flores for cohabitation and injurious words. As a whole, 6 letters linking these two parts are contained in the process documentation: 4 of them are related to Santiago Caballero´s litigation (PS6245, PS6246, PS6247 y PS6250), and the other 2 letters (PS6248 y PS6249) belong to Pedro Flores´ litigation. Santiago Caballero was accused of having unlawful treatments in Valladolid with María Santos de Olalla, a widow from Haro (La Rioja) who became pregnant. He was also accused of giving her an abortive drink. Juan Pedro Flores, also a rural bailiff, was accused of cohabitating with several women (married and single); of causing disturbances and quarrels; and of having said injurious words against various people, Santiago Caballero among them.

This letter is included in the litigation against Juan Pedro Flores and it was used to collate the defendant´s handwriting with the letter PS6248 in which Juan Pedro Flores expresses different slanders against Santiago Caballero.

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.
