Until the 10th of the present month I was not able to succeed in
apprehending Don Antonio Adorno, as he did not make his appearance in
this quarter before that date. The capture was made with great caution,
the commander having contrived to deliver him into my hands in the
prison of the regiment, from which place he proceeds this day, Tuesday,
July 13th, under the care of the Familiar Rafel Bellveny, the Familiar
Francisco Suñez being sick.
No inventory of his property was taken, as none was to be found either
upon his person or in his knapsack, except the papers herewith
transmitted, and a book containing various documents respecting the
nobility of the house of Adorno. No money has been found, and the
prisoner is considerably in debt to the regiment. The commander has kept
every article of his clothing, so that it has been necessary to purchase
a suit for him. God preserve your Excellencies many years.
