1666. Carta de Brites de Sequeira para o seu irmão, Fernão Vaz de Sequeira, mercador.

Family letter from Brites de Sequeira to her brother, Fernão Vaz de Sequeira, merchant.

The author tells her brother about how she and their family are going in Lisbon and expresses some annoyance towards her sister-in-law.

The defendant in this process is Isabel de Leão, a New Christian, who was accused of judaism and of insisting in her crimes. She was sentenced to prison, to a perpetual penitential habit and spiritual penances, later being reconciled. Manuel Gomes de Sequeira, also accused of judaism, was her brother-in-law. He is the author of the letter PSCR0278, in which he insults and threatens her.
