1816. Cópia de carta de Francisco Quintino da Cruz, mestre de iate, para António Ribeiro Pessoa, negociante.

Autor(es) Francisco Quintino da Cruz      
Destinatário(s) António Ribeiro Pessoa      
In English

Copy of a justification letter from Francisco Quintino da Cruz, a yacht master, to António Ribeiro Pessoa, a trader.

The author excuses himself for not having sailed his boat to Almería and remaining in Cádiz waiting for the Levante wind. Forty other boats are also waiting, according to him. He assures that the money he took for the buying of esparto grass is safely guarded and that the addressee will be happy with the way things will turn out.

António Ribeiro Pessoa was a trader who owned a yacht. His yacht master, Francisco Quintino da Cruz, should go to Almería and back for cargo trading, but he went to Gibraltar instead, sold the cargo and hid himself. António Ribeiro Pessoa succeeded in having him arrested when he came back to Lisbon. In the instructions letter that António Ribeiro Pessoa initially gave to Francisco Quintino da Cruz along with the yacht, there was a list of the latter´s obligations. He was to leave with rice, olive oil and wood and it must bring back esparto grass, fennel, cumin, Alicante raisins and brandy.
