1828. Carta de Ángel Muñoz para [Manuel López, capitán de caballería].

Letter from Ángel Muñoz to Manuel López, a cavalry captain.

The author warns Manuel López that they have a lot of enemies, and that impedes him from giving the addressee all the information about his business by letter. He also recommends the addressee not to expose his wife to any risk.

The General Police Administration was closely monitoring the activities of foreign citizens residing in Portugal, also controlling their communications, in collaboration with the superintendent of the Posts. This letter is part of this intercepted correspondence from those Spanish military and intellectuals who, fleeing the absolutist Spain, had taken refuge in Portugal and were suspected of harboring liberal ideas and of plotting to overthrow Fernando VII and establish a constitutional regime.
