Note 450 — Chapter VI · MEXICO.
Reading edition
Obregon, op. cit., 2º Serie, pp. 352-55. From 1601 to 1646 the only sanbenitos were—
1603. A Fleming relaxed for Calvinism, one Judaizer reconciled and one relaxed in effigy and two mulattos reconciled for heresy.
1605. An Irishman reconciled for Lutheranism and a Portuguese for Judaism. There were however 36 penitents in this auto of whom 21 were negroes and mulattos for blasphemy. When in 1605 the general pardon for Judaizers descended from Portuguese reached Mexico, there was only one to be liberated.—Medina, pp. 143, 146.
1606. A mulatto relaxed for administering sacraments without ordination. There was however another person guilty of the same offence, a married priest and a blasphemer.—Medina, p. 145.
1621. A German reconciled for Lutheranism.
1625. Three Judaizers reconciled.
1626 One Judaizer relaxed in effigy.
1630. Three Judaizers reconciled.
1635. Four Judaizers reconciled, one relaxed in person and four in effigy. This is evidently incomplete. Medina, p. 165, reports that in this auto there were twelve Judaizers reconciled and five effigies of the dead relaxed.
1636. One Judaizer relaxed in effigy.
