- Scope & Content:
- Theodora and her minor children, Luis, Emilia, and Joanna, slaves of Firmino José de Souza, were freed by fair payment. During the proceedings, the three children were put under the care of Theodora’s life companion, Eloy, Black, who would keep them until the final judicial decision. Theodora died before the case’s closure. Her master demanded then that her children should be given back to him. The judge complied and ordered the children to be sent back. João Luis Peleja, scrivener.
