In English | Request letter sent by Manuel Soares to his cousin, Gaspar de Passos Figueiroa, a bishop's bailiff The author asks for news from his imprisoned cousin and tells him how afflicted he was with the rumor of his sentence of exile to Angola for life. He promises to stand by him and try everything to defend him. Gaspar de Passos Figueiroa, a bishop's bailiff, was arrested by the Inquisition under the accusation of receiving bribes from some New-Christians he was supposed to arrest, allowing them to flee instead. He was also accused of contacting his own family by letter when he was already in prison; indeed, the Inquisition prisoners were not allowed to reveal "the Saint Office's secret". |
