Summary
Saying to his recipient that he has seen the report concerning the Vincenzo Martinozzi's memorandum, and that since he is not being investigated nor condemned, he will not be able to harrass him on account of the matter told by him; adding that on this occasion he wants to tell him that our Lord (the Pope) wishes him to continue using diligence for another three months in the places of his jurisdiction so that, if he crosses a road, he be incarcerated and well guarded as they are fugitives, swindlers, and capable of major crimes.
