TO THE MOST ILLUSTRIOUS INQUISITOR.
MOST ILLUSTRIOUS SIR,
I have made the most industrious search for information respecting the
character and life of Maria Anna Sauri, widow, but cannot ascertain what
degree of credit ought to be attached to her testimony. I am informed by
the Reverend Antonio Huguet, Presbyter, that he has some knowledge of
her, as all these persons belong to the town of Tremp. He cannot tell,
however, what life she leads, and only knows that she has been in the
Galera. I made inquiries of the Pacionero del Pino, and he stated to me
that he had seen her in the Galera, where she was then in custody for
smuggling. Nothing more respecting her was known.
I have, with the assistance of the Vicar del Pino, examined the
_cartepacio_ of communions of the whole district of the Calle de Asalto,
Calle de Lancastre, Calle den Guardia, Calle del Olmo, Calle de San
Olaguer, which, as supposed by her in her deposition, must be the second
Calle de San Ramon, the whole Calle de San Ramon, and all the lanes. No
part of the _cartepacio_ exhibits the name of Marianna Sauri. I then
proceeded to Santa Maria del Mar, as the Calle de Basea, where she
resides, is situated in that parish, and here in the _cartepacio_ of the
communions it was found, but nothing further to direct me. She has left
Barcelona, whether for Tremp or Figueras, I cannot positively determine.
The above information I communicate to your Excellency to be applied to
the proper purposes.
Barcelona, July 2d, 1802.
Your most humble chaplain who kisses the hands of your Excellency.
CAYETANO TUCO, _Presbyter and Commissary_.
