In English | Recommandation letter written by a monk, frei Amaro de Jesus Maria Rangel, to his brother in law. The author asks the addressee to support the letter carrier, a close friend of him, in all his needs; he identifies him as a surgeon who is being the victim of a terrible injustice. A priest in Rio das Mortes (Minas Gerais, Brazil) accused a surgeon, António de Sá Tinoco, of attempting against the 6th Commandment: he accused him of having a mistress, a creole woman, and of creating scandal around him, both by his conduct and by his sayings. Many witnesses, including monks, presented themselves to defend the surgeon, who was taken by the population as a kind man who gave money and free medicine to the poor. Suspicion fell on the plaintif, who had a brother who was also a surgeon and would get the monopoly of the trade if António de Sá Tinoco was found guilty. |
