Leon S Letter to Espartero on Crown Authority
A private copy of a letter from General Don Diego de Leon to Espartero urges loyalty to the queen regent Christina. It details orders to assemble the army under her banner, pressing for restoration of royal authority and warning against rebellion. The piece notes Espartero’s reaction and a related forgery inquiry, then shifts to a Cork municipal election report praising Liberal gains and denouncing the Orange Cork Corporation.
