1545. Carta de Frei Jorge da Mota para Álvaro de França, seu sobrinho.

Family letter from Frei Jorge da Mota to his nephew Álvaro de França.

The author tells the addressee about the legal issues that concern him.

Several letters can be found in the collection "Corpo Cronológico", a documental fund under the custody of the National Archive of Torre do Tombo. It is a collection composed mostly by documentation of judicial and administrative nature, from 1161 to 1696. After the earthquake of 1755 many scattered documents were incorporated in this fund. Just like the name suggests, the main criterion of organization within the Corpo Cronológico is the documents' date.
