[1707-1711]. Copia de carta de Gaspar Díaz, artesano, para María de los Ángeles.

Autor(es) Gaspar Díaz      
Destinatário(s) María de los Ángeles      
In English

Copy of a letter from Gaspar Díaz, an artisan, to María de los Ángeles.

The author threatens to denounce María de los Ángeles and her family if she does not send him to the jail a certain sum of money.

The accused in this process was Manuel Díaz, a merchant. In 1712, his cousin Gaspar Díaz denounced him to the Inquisition, accusing him to follow the law of Moses. In 1714, the Inquisition of Cuenca started a process against him, accusing him of being a judaizer. However, the process was suspended some years after, when it was demonstrated that Gaspar Díaz had denounced his cousin only because of the animosity that existed between them and because Manuel had refused to help Gaspar economically while he was in jail. Between 1707 and 1711, Gaspar Díaz had been imprisoned in the Royal Jail for coin counterfeiting, together with his brother Diego Díaz and other relatives. While they were imprisoned, they had written letters threatening to denounce various relatives if they did not send them certain sums of money. Some of these letters were joined to the proceedings as a proof of the extortions made by the two brothers.

[1]
Señora mia
[2]
el Savado pasado Veinte y, Cinco del corrte escrivi a Vm un papel en el qual, le embiaba a deçir como me allaba de la manera q Referi en el pasado;
[3]
ya al qual vm no hiço caso por ver en el paraxe q me allo,
[4]
y asi digo a Vm q me allo desesperado por verme como me veo,
[5]
y asi digo a Vm que en vista de este papel, le digo me Remita quatro pesos de quinze Rs,
[6]
y de no el día Viernes q se quentan treinta y uno doy quenta en la Sala de lo q pasa en Casa de Vm,
[7]
y si mañana Dia de el Señor, no me embia lo q llebo Referido, eJecutare lo digcho,
[8]
y permita Dios q destruido sea Yo, si no lo hiçiera, porque me allo como desesperado sin haçer naide caso de mi;
[9]
Y asi Vm haga lo q fuere su voluntad,
[10]
y le buelbo a Referir q le estara a quento lo q pido
[11]
no quiera por cosa tan tenua verse en un travaxo Vm y otros muchos,
[12]
y porque no le coxa de Susto le aviso con estas toscas letras,
[13]
y si no lo hiçiere q haorcado muera, como los q murieron el dia Veinte y quatro,
[14]
y mire Vm q tengo hasta Siete testigos q Juren lo q tengo para mi; y Vm no lo Ygnora,
[15]
y a mi yá no me pueden meter mas adentro, ni temo Riesgo ni peligro,
[16]
y si lo tubiera muchas merçedes me hiçiera Dios de sacarme de este miserable mundo
[17]
esto es quanto me se ofreçe, y pedir a Dios la guarde
[18]
quedo fiado de q me Respondera al tiempo q llebo dicho,
[19]
y mire Vm q no me chanzeo por el Dios en quien creo, y adoro,
[20]
y mire Vm por no embiarme tristes quatro pesos le queste la Vida, y lo que, y lo poco q tenga en su Cassa
[21]
y mire Vm q le digo lo q le esta muy vien,
[22]
y esto lo hago por el poco caso q Vm haçe de mis papeles,
[23]
y con esto no quiero molestar mas a Vm cuia vida ge Dios,
[24]
Carzel de Corte y Mayo Veinte y nuebe.
[25]
Servidor de Vm. Gaspar Diaz.
[26]
Sra Da Maria de los Angeles.
