1522. Carta de Adriano de Borgue, [mercador], para o seu irmão Filipe de Borgue, [mercador].

Author(s) Adriano de Borgue      
Addressee(s) Filipe de Borgue      
In English

Family letter from Adriano de Borgue, [merchant], to his brother, Filipe de Borgue, [merchant].

The author is pleased by the success that a nephew seems to have in business. He also mentions some incidents related to the transportation of goods: assaults and foreclosures.

This is one of the letters 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.

If there is no translation for the letter itself, you may copy the text (while using the view 'Standardization') and paste it to an automatic translator of your choice.
