[1820-1830]. Carta de José Fernández para Manuel López, capitán de caballería.

Letter from José Fernández to Manuel López, a cavalry captain.

The author writes Manuel López to give him news about the Portuguese government and to ask him for news from Spain. He also informs him about more usual thing, such as his health.

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.

This letter is written in the same sheet of paper of the letter PSCR2788.
