In English | Letter from Félix Pérez on behalf of Antonio Puertas to his mother, Melchora Martínez. The author confesses to his mother he has taken part in several thefts, he accuses other accomplices of having objects belonging to him and he denies having taken part in other similar crimes. In 1780, Jerónimo Toboso, the alguacil mayor of the Valladolid Royal Chancery, opened a proceeding against Antonio Puertas and Domingo Gómez. These two men were frequently seen in the public square without working. Therefore, they were looked for and their houses were searched. They found stolen objects and an inquire began. Clara Muñoz declared that Antonio Puertas had been at her house and stole a small chest with chocolates and some cotton skeins. Also Manuel de Entuna declared that Antonio Puertas had stolen certain sums of money from him. He was also accused of stealing some jewellery from his mother, Melchora Martínez. The proceeding continued by inquiring persons close to Antonio Puertas in order to decide on whether he was guilty of loiter with intent. The proceeding documentation is in bad state and possibly incomplete. The letter transcribed in here was dictated to Félix Pérez by Antonio Puertas. |
