1645. Carta de Pedro de Torres para Dionisio Aybar, canĂ³nigo de la iglesia de Borja.

Author(s) Pedro de Torres      
Addressee(s) Dionisio Aybar      
In English

Letter from Pedro de Torres to Dionisio Aybar, a canon of the church of Borja.

The author reproaches Dionisio Aybar for having failed to keep his promise, because he has not gone to visit a sick person as he had promised to do. He reminds the addressee that the sick still needs his cures, and he begs him to keep curing him like he did before, or, if he does not want to, to tell him that clearly, but it would be a pity, because he had promised to do it.

In 1645-1646 Dionisio Aybar was accused and eventually found guilty of witchcraft. In particular, he was accused of using sorcery to heal people, of pronouncing heresies and for having done a pact with the devil. This letter was found in the waist pouch of the accused, along with other papers.
