Description:
Document from the court of the Inquisition in Valencia, Spain. It appears to be a bill for 128 reales castellanos to be paid to Francisco Auzina, lawyer for the accused. In addition to including a list of some 23 individuals who owe Auzina money (f.2r), there is also a paragraph (f.2v) officially releasing Auzina from his duties toward his clients, signed by inquisitor Dr. Pedro de Çarate and countersigned by Joan Llano de Valdes, and a notary, Josephe Bellot. The notarial signet of Joan Bautista Trilles also appears on the document (f.1r). It is dated August 23, 1582; however, there is at least one subsequent note added in 1586. It is written in a cursive script by multiple hands.
