[Sca-librarians] OT Help finding info

[Lynne Puckett]

Somebody wrote  (I lost the original):
"Hi Cheryl, I am having trouble locating a letter written by the Bishop 
of the Philippines, Miquel Garcia Serrano, dated 28 July 1619 to the 
King of Spain. This letter documents the acquisition of a Japaneses 
Galleon that was sold to Spain. I have been unable to locate even 
possibility of its existence. My question is, are there sources, 
archives or extracts that I might explore for the contents of this 
letter. Any HELP will be GREATLY appreciated.

Have you checked out http://libro.uca.edu/      the Library of Iberian 
Resources Online? there's a bunch of digitized stuff there. I haven't 
checked for letters, but it couldn't hurt to look. They have stuff like 
the Chronicles of James I of Aragon, among other period sources in 
translation.

Good luck.
Aletheia Isidora of Philae aka Tarimaat
