In English

Letter from Francisca Ruiz de la Portilla to Pedro Lloris.

The author writes her husband to tell him that she received his letter and to inform him about her temporary accommodation and her financial situation.

On the 5th of December, 1710, the bodies of two soldiers, Pedro Lloris and Pedro Cerrillo, were found in Vitoria, in the Camino Real de Castile, near San Martín chapel. The circumstances of this finding were particularly significant for the investigation. Pedro Lloris was wearing particularly elegant clothes. Next to the body there were a cane with a silver handle, and a wig. A rosary, a spur, cuffs, and a cap were found in his coat. Near the corpse there was a carriage stake stained with blood. In addition, a kidskin wallet was found near the corpse, containing various documents which confirmed the identity of the dead man. Eventually, this letter, written by the wife of Pedro Lloris, was found in the crime scene. The other corpse also had documents certifying that he was a soldier. With these data, the inquirer managed to reconstruct some of the previous steps made by of the two men, before their fatal outcome. In particular, they had stayed in the inn of the town, where they expressed their intention to go towards Madrid. However, the reasons and the responsible for the death of the two soldiers were not discovered. The ordinary mayor decided to end the investigation on the 18th of December, 1710. All the clothes were sold to pay the costs and the funeral.
