visara la causa de Carranque, pero no
pudo lograrlo.

cia y Justicia que hubo en- aquel espa-
clio de tempo, dUo q dona Mariquita,
condolido de su situacion, que hiciera
una exposition 4 la reina, pidiendo el
indulto, y le dio su palabra de resolver-
la favorablemente.
Senior, contesto dignamente, indul.
to significa perdon, y ell perdon supone
falta cometida ; mi marido es inocente !;
cometio una ligereza, 6andose do un
falso amigo, y creyendo de buena f6 que
la letra que iba q cobrar para entregar
luego su importe aquel, era legitima.

don para 81. 81 toda la vida hubiera de
estar en- presidio, y un indulto le pudie-
Sc hbrar, no 10 pediria. C1mplase la
