[1820-1830]. Carta de Francisco Romo para un destinatario no identificado.

Letter from Francisco Romo to an unidentified addressee.

The author gives an unidentified addressee news about what is happening in other parts of Europe. He also tells him that he is sorry for not being able to help him more, and that he does not have more news to give him.

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 harbouring liberal ideas and of plotting to overthrow Fernando VII and establish a constitutional regime.
