Note 961 — Chapter I · DECADENCE AND EXTINCTION. (continued 2)
Reading edition
Many documents were gathered in the streets and sent to the United States, which have mostly perished through neglect, but some which were secured by Mr. Andrew Thorndike, then a resident of Barcelona, were presented, in 1840, to the American Philosophical Society, through whose courtesy I have been enabled to use them.
Some cases, from a similar source were translated and printed in Boston, in 1828, under the title of “Records of the Spanish Inquisition, translated from the original Manuscripts.”
In Majorca the populace was more aggressive and destroyed the palace of the Inquisition.
